Song Structure:

Only one guitar in this song, played by Adrian.  He plays an arpeggio similar to that in Getting Away With It (All Messed Up) but based on the chords of this song (duh!).  It's not really integral to the song, so I haven't been bothered to tab it out fully, and you should be able to make something up yourself.

I've included the main keyboard riff because it's so god-damn good!


Lyrics/Chords

Em
God's dead

This state is torture

C
Find me shade

And bring me water

G
Holding on

                     D 
I'm thirsty for your sage

 
Em
Back at the ranch

I just got slaughtered

C
Too many shoulds

Too many orders

G
Better come out

              D
Holding on to faith

 
        C            G                  D 
Let the sun begin to shine through your night

        C            G                D
Let the light reveal disguise in your life

        C            G                  G
Let the sun begin to shine through your night
        
        C            G                D
Let the light reveal disguise in your life

 

Work kills

It's killing me slowly

And what is the point in being so holy?

Who do you love?

Who do you love above all?

 

If you want to live some life

Get slaughtered

They'd sell their sons and daughters

Who do you love?

Who do you love above all?

 

How can we fail

Less we really want to 

Under the spell of some local voodoo curse

We can change our fate

 

Let the sun begin to shine through your night

Let the light reveal disguise in your life

Let the sun begin to shine through your night

Let the light reveal disguise in your life

 

Let the sun begin to shine through your night

Let the light reveal disguise in your life

Let the sun begin to shine through your night

Let the light reveal disguise in your life
