Verse 1:
[G]Maybe it's bricks and mortar now
[C]Whether or not they run it down

Just like [C]most falling [D]head in
Til my [C]ghost fills the[D] bed in

Not the [C]sorceress
not the [D]money
All my [C]cleverness
all my cu[D]nning

Bridge:
[G]It's around me in
my surroundings
[Bm]It counts me when it
starts the counting
[Em]In the chaos
there is a standard
[D]I'm carrying it
like a banner
[G]It's around me in
my surroundings
[C]It kills me when it
starts the counting
[Em]In the chaos
there is a standard
[D]I'm carrying it
like a banner
(Repeat Chorus)
