Introduction:

Am / /

Dm
Give me back my broken night, my mirrored room, my secret life

G6 E7 Am
it's lonely here, there's no one left to torture

Dm
Give me absolute control over every living soul

G6 Am
And lie beside me baby, that's an order!

Dm
Give me crack an anal sex, take the only tree that's left

G6 E7 Am
and stuff it up the hole in your culture

Dm
Give me back the Berlin Wall, give me Stalin and St. Paul

G6 E7 Am
I've seen the future, brother: it is murder.


[Chorus:]

Dm C
Things are gonna slide (slide) in all directions

Dm C
Won't be nothing (won't be) nothing you can't measure anymore.

Dm F
The blizzard, the blizzard of the world has crossed the threshold

Fm C
and it has overturned the order of the soul

G
When they said (they said) REPENT (repent) REPENT (repent)

Am
I wonder what they meant

G
When they said (they said) REPENT (repent) REPENT (repent)

Am
I wonder what they meant

G
When they said (they said) REPENT (repent) REPENT (repent)

Am
I wonder what they meant

[second verse: (same chords as first)]

You don't know me from the wind, you never will, you never did
I'm the little jew who wrote the bible
I've seen nations rise and fall, I've heard their stories, heard them all
but love's the only engibe of survival
Your servant here he has been told to say it clear to say it cold:
It's over, it ain't going any further
And now the wheels of heaven stop, you feel the devil's riding crop
Get ready for the future: it is murder.

[repeat chorus]

[third verse:]


There'll be the breaking of the ancient western code

Dm
Your private life will suddenly explode

Am
There'll be phantoms, there'll be fires on the road

F7 E
and the white man dancing

Am
You'll see your woman hanging upside down

Dm
her features covered by her fallen gown

Am
and all the lousy little poets coming around

F7 E
trying to sound like Charlie Manson

Am
and the white man dancing

Dm
Give me back the Berlin Wall, give me Stalin and St. Paul

G6 E7 Am
Give me Christ or give me Hiroshima

Dm
Destroy another fetus now, we don't like children anyhow

G6 E7 Am
I've seen the future, baby: it is murder.


[repeat chorus]

G Am
When they said (they said) REPENT (repent) REPENT (repent)

[end on Am]
