Giving Blood

[Intro]
C#m F#m A B
C#m B A B
 
 
[Verse 1]
C#m                       F#m
   The Gospel, distorted
 A
It leaves my blood running cold
C#m
But still they say
F#m                    A
I'm rigging the ritual
 
 
[Chorus]
                  C#m
I never said that I was giving blood for the unbelievers
F#m            A                 C#m
Bleeding out like a devil in disguise
C#m                          A
They shot a hole in the parachute
   B
'Cause I'd rather feel alive
 
 
[Verse 2]
C#m               F#m
It's so convoluted
A                                C#m
They're just trepanning for gold
 
May they rest in peace
F#m                            A
'Cause they're fucking dead to me
B
Well there's your eulogy
 
C#m               F#m
The water's polluted
A                            C#m
My feathers caught in the spill
                     F#m             A
Nobody said that it would be safe up here
 
 
[Chorus]
                  C#m
I never said that I was giving blood for the unbelievers
F#m            A                 C#m
Bleeding out like a devil in disguise
C#m                          A
They shot a hole in the parachute
   B
'Cause I'd rather feel alive
 
C#m                       F#m
Your salvation's a letdown
A
Ooh-ooh
C#m                       F#m
Oh, I'm sorry that I'd rather feel
A
I'd rather feel alive
 
C#m
 
 
[Bridge]
C#m
It leaves a mark on the mind. It weaves a web in the background. Silently
B
No time to spare. No sign of the exit wound. God help me
A
There's no drying off, Once you're soaked right down to the bone. Hopefully
F#m
Somebody thinks of me in the aftermath. Woe is me
