Intro

These chords inbetween (Asus2, Fadd11, C7M) are played by simply releasing the first

fret on the B string ("Congleton's" F allows that). This theme is later repeated in the

chorus etc. where he played just Am-F-C-G, but you can play it the same way as the intro

if your coordination is good enough.

On the day Chicago locked its doors for good

Our headless chickens pushed and pecked along their Southbound route

To cluck the atrocity, their beaks are posturing

 At and old vampire; the forest fire

Any day our windy city's gonna blow it out for you

I'll keep a horseshoe on my step, I'll keep a cross around my neck

 While draping garlic above our bed

All good luck, amulets and aids will dab your forehead, keep you safe

 From the forest fire rage

Our fine crystal will cling, we'll drink to anything

 If it keeps the highways moving, keeps commuting smooth for you

I'm drawing a bloodbath with or without you

(replay intro twice)

On the day the fire nibbled your neighborhood

We guard our brimstone as if it was gravestone

 While the blaze was blown loose, our cottage knees shaking

 The flames were giggling with the embers beaming, its chest its beating

That little house we made gets gobbled up by flames

I'll mash my foot down on the gas of any black cat that cross my path

 Than to risk it and lay it in my lap

We keep our umbrellas down here, we toss the salt behind our ears

 The good looks weren't worth the seven years

With tightly coiled springs that snap for anything

 We're gonna keep a lighter to it, even while it burns for you

I'm going to heaven with or without you

(repeat intro)

I'll keep a horseshoe on my step, I'll keep a cross around my neck

 Draping garlic above our bed

All ladder legs we walk around, no burning flags will touch the ground

 The same one that our cracks we found, and I swear to God...

I'll bury a bible in these halls, I'll bury a black cat between the walls

 Good luck, Godspeed, God damn you all

(repeat intro twice + God damn you all)
