Intro

(C) Sunset (G/B) is an angel (Am) weeping

(C) Holding (G/B) out a bloody (Am) sword

(C) No matter (G/B) how I squint I (Am) cannot

(C) Make out (G/B) what it's pointing (Am) toward

(F) Sometimes you feel like you've (G) lived too long

The (Am) days drip slowly on the page

(F) And you catch yourself (G)

Pacing the (F) cage

(C) I've proved who (G/B) I am so many (Am) times

(C) The mag(G/B)netic strip's worn (Am) thin

(C) And each (G/B) time I was someone (Am) else

(C) And every(G/B)one was taken (Am) in

(F) Powers chatter in high (G) places

Stir up (Am) eddies in the dust of rage

(F) (G) Set me to pacing the (F) cage

(C) I never (G/B) knew what you all (Am) wanted

(C) So I (G/B) gave you every(Am)thing

(C) All that (G/B) I could (Am) pillage

(C) All the (G/B) spells that I could (Am) sing

(F) It's as if the thing were (G) written

In the (Am) constitution of the age

(F) Sooner or later (G) you'll wind up

Pacing the (F) cage

Solo

(C) Sometimes the (G/B) best map will not (Am) guide you

(C) You can't (G/B) see what's round the (Am) bend

(C) Sometimes the (G/B) road leads through dark (Am) places

(C) Sometimes the (G/B) darkness is your (Am) friend

(F) Today these eyes scan (G) bleached-out land

For the (Am) coming of the outbound stage

(F) (G)

Pacing the (F) cage
