We're Poets of the Fall

Perfect, near fatal headlong dive
Em Emadd9 C Am
A blueprint for life, blueprint your life
Em Emadd9 C Am
Aggressively primal, cultural high
Em Emadd9 C Am
This mental versailles is much grander than the lies

You tell yourself to get through the night

To gamble is all

Verse 3
B5 Baug
If all the isms and doctrines of life were a gentle breeze instead of that
B5 Bm7 Baug
usual judgmental freeze, would we all be as easily shanghaied to their cause
B5 Baug

B5 Bm7
after our deepest desires with a similar verve
Bm
who would it serve?
