[Intro]
Em [Verse]
Em I keep my distance
out of deference
it happens of course Em But frequency of
this is dominating every discourse Em Em I understand but comprehension leaves
more to be desired C G B The common sense is rinsed and
Am
since this realization I find Em C C#dim I’m growing tired uninspired by
G B
the bicker and bench Em C C#dim It grows and feeds like a disease until
G B
I bleed from the itch Em C C#dim Unearthing each and every hollow body,
G B
raising the lich Em C C#dim The ways of old are new and bold and
N.C
we are governed by it [Chorus]
G The world is dark these days Fadd6 And all the larks are caged C in silence Cm/Eb Cm/G Cm/Eb They’ve no heart to sing G This too shall come to pass Fadd6 This is not built to last C Oh songbirds Cm/Eb Find me in the spring [Instrumental]

Em [Bridge]
Em And my affliction D Is all the world is facing A/C# When all is undone C We all outstretch embracing Em A distant notion D Of something worth remembering A/C# Of all that can be done C Of all that’s left worth saving [Verse]
Em C I’m one of many each and
C#dim G B
everyone is striking the match Em C C#dim Intent on burning every wretch until
G B
they wither to ash Em C C#dim To tolerate the squalor built by
G B
the intolerant begs Em C C#dim To be complicit in cementing
N.C Am
our place in the dregs C Listen in keep an ear to the ground Am C When it ends, listen in and
follow the sound [Chorus]
G The world is dark these days Fadd6 And all the larks are caged C in silence Cm/Eb Cm/G Cm/Eb They’ve no heart to sing G This too shall come to pass Fadd6 This is not built to last C Oh songbirds Cm/Eb Find me in the spring [Intermission]
