A (CLAP CLAP CLAP!)

Verse 1

AWhen the baby's bEorn

 Oh, let's tAurn it to the sEnow

 So that F♯mice will surely gErow

 Over F♯mweak and brittle bEones

 Oh, let's leAave it to the wolEves

 So their tAeeth turn it to foEod

 Oh, its fF♯mlesh keeps them alEive

 Oh, its dF♯meath helps them suErvive

 Oh, the wF♯morld cAan be kEind in its own F♯mway E

(repeat the chord progression for verse 1 instrumentally before going into verse 2)

Verse 2

 Oh well your fuAture's a maEchine

 With the mecAhanics of a drEeam

 It is your mF♯mind that spins the whEeel

 And your hF♯meart that makes you feEel

 All the guAilt for all your sEins

 Oh and aAs that wheel spEins

 Oh well it pF♯mlays as they beElieved

 And for your hF♯musband you have grEieved

 Oh the wF♯morld stAill deceEives you as it tF♯murns E

(no instrumental break, cut straight to the next part)

 Well iDn my lucid moments I could seAe

 Oh that the hF♯meart might be the weakest part of Eme

 Oh and the mDoon controls the movements of the tiAde

 Oh but it F♯mhas no weight on the movements of my mEind

(This next part is acapella until the next chord is brought up. This section is supposed

be suspenseful so I would implore you to improvise with what you have around you as

through this section, and have your friends or audience sing it with you)

CBut if you turn your hands into flames

All their light will burn the same

Whether you just pass it through

or if it's what you want to do

 ACnd your sensDe of culpAability

 Is from the guDides that you peArceive

 Will show you grF♯mace

 Oh when you turn to a ghoEst

 Oh but nDow the love you foAund

 Is raising yDou from muddy grAound

 And oh the deDath will let you dAown

 'Cause your cuF♯mrse

 Will go on the saEme
