Verse
C D#
You got an albatross around your neck
Dm C
Around your neck
C D# A# C
You got a hundred broken lightbulbs above your head
C D# Dm C
They said that you had it coming but I wouldn't bet
C D# A# C
Cause you got a slowly ticking time bomb and then you see red
[Pre-Chorus]
C D# Dm C
Sunblind
C D# A# C
Sunblind
[Verse 2]
C D#
You got an albatross around your neck
Dm C
Around your neck
C D# A# C
You got a pile of broken wishbones under your bed
C D# Dm C
And you got a hungry green eyed monster that you keep fed
C D# A# C
And it keeps on coming over it wants you dead
[Pre-Chorus]
C D# Dm C
Sunblind
C D# A# C
Sunblind
[Chorus]
Ab Fm C
Oh, You burnt the lungs
C Ab
That your ancestors created
Fm C
You sat by the banks
C Ab
Of the river and you waited
Fm C
Till time rolled back
C Ab
And the water had abated
Fm C
You drank your share
C Ab
But you still could not be sated
Fm C
Quicksands of the mind
C Ab
And the sinkholes you may find
Fm C
When you look through
C Ab Fm C
The twisting of the vines
C Ab Fm C
(The twisting of the vines)
[Bridge]
Ab Fm C
Time comes round again
C Ab
It's etching at your bones
Fm C
Chill wind comes round
C Ab
It's blowing through your home
Fm C
Quicksands of the mind
C Ab
And the sinkholes you may find
Fm C
When you look through
C Ab
The twisting of the vines
[Chorus]
Fm C
You burnt the lungs
C Ab
That your ancestors created
Fm C
You sat by the banks
C Ab
Of the river and you waited
Fm C
Till time rolled back
C Ab
And the water had abated
Fm C
You drank your share
C Ab
But you still could not be sated
Fm C
You said you're scared
C Ab
Of the clocks that keep ticking over
Fm C
We'll find a way
C Ab
For a life that's worth living over
Fm C
Again and again
C Ab
For a life that's worth living over
Fm C
Again and again
Ab Fm C C
Ab Fm C
C Ab
For a life that's worth living over
Fm C
Again and again
C
Again and again and
Ab Fm
Again again
