Intro:
Bb Dm F C
Bb5 Dm F C
Bb Dm
There are naught but ghosts
F C
Beyond this endless canopy
Bb5 Dm
And they all hold small comfort
F C
For deserters such as me
Bb Dm
You have failed us in memories
F C
Your recollections all are lies
Bb5 Dm
you've been such a disappointment
F C
From the moment that we died
C / / / (then tap foot or ukelele four times)
---- chorus ----
F C Gm Dm C
and we will descend from the sky
F C Gm Dm C
and we will bury you alive
x2
---- chorus ----
Break:
Bb Dm F C
Bb5 Dm F C
you are not the men you thought you were
Never knowing your own minds
Still there are oh so many ways
To bleed the truth out of a lie
---- chorus ----
and we will descend from the sky
and we will bury you alive
N.C.
and we will descend from the sky
N.C.
and we will bury you alive
---- chorus ----
