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