[Intro]
D

[Verse]
D G
There was a grown man dying from fright,
Bm E
so surprised at the things he'd say.
D G
With a giant fantasy life,
Bm E
running 'round on feet of clay.

[Chorus]
D G D G
Naked except for a perpetual debt
Bm A D G
that couldn't be stripped away,
D G D G
An unrightable wrong that moved him along,
D A D A
closer to division day.

[Verse]
D G
Spent a long time living with that,
Bm E
Never could give it a name,
D G
and when you don't know what you're looking at,
Bm E
it makes it much harder to take.

[Chorus]
D G D G D
Mostly they'd meet when he was asleep and
Bm A D G
have some sick exchange,
D G D G
that struck him as wrong and moved him along,
D A D A
closer to division day.

[Solo]
D G Bm E D G Bm E

[Chorus]
D G D G
I can't make an exception for a bad connection
Bm A D G
that only goes one way,
