[Intro]
Am Em F C Dm Em Am
[Versetto]
Am 
Just a little rush, babe 
                  F 
To feel dizzy, to derail the mind of me 
Am 
Just a little hush, babe 
                          F 
Our veins are busy but my heart's in atrophy 
Dm  Am        C            G 
Any way to distract and sedate 
Dm     Am              F           C 
Adding shadows to the walls of the cave
[Ritornello]
Am             Em   F                  C   Dm 
You and I nursing on a poison that never stung 
                              Em       Am 
Our teeth and lungs are lined with the scum of it 
Am                    Em     F 
Some whiff of this death and guts 
       C               Dm 
We are deaf, we are numb 
         Em                    Am 
Free and young and we can feel none of it
[Versetto]
Am 
Something isn't right, babe 
                    F 
I keep catching the words but the meaning's thin
        Am 
I'm somewhere outside my life, babe
                          F 
I keep scratching but somehow I can't get in  
Dm       Am          C           G 
So we're slaves to any sEmblance of touch 
Dm      Am                 F           C 
Lord we should quit but we love it too much
[Ritornello]
  Am              Em   F                 C      Dm 
Sedated we're nursing on a poison that never stung 
                              Em       Am 
Our teeth and lungs are lined with the scum of it 
Am                    Em     F 
Some whiff of this death and guts 
       C               Dm 
We are deaf, we are numb 
         Em                    Am 
Free and young and we can feel none of it
[Versetto]
C 
Darlin', don't you, stand there watching, won't you 
Em 
Come and save me from it 
C 
Darlin', don't you, join in, you're supposed to 
Em 
Drag me away from it 
Dm  Am        C            G 
Any way to distract and sedate 
Dm     Am              F           C 
Adding shadows to the walls of the cave
[Ritornello]
Am             Em   F                  C   Dm 
You and I nursing on a poison that never stung 
                              Em       Am 
Our teeth and lungs are lined with the scum of it 
Am                    Em     F 
Some whiff of this death and guts 
       C               Dm 
We are deaf, we are numb 
         Em                    Am 
Free and young and we can feel none of it  
 Am              Em   F                 C      Dm 
Sedated we're nursing on a poison that never stung 
                              Em       Am 
Our teeth and lungs are lined with the scum of it 
Am                    Em     F 
Some whiff of this death and guts 
       C               Dm 
We are deaf, we are numb 
         Em                    Am 
Free and young and we can feel none of it
