Angel Of Small Death And The Codeine Scene

Intro -x2-: Gbm Gbm Db9 Gbm

Verse 1:
Gbm                    Db9          Gbm
I watch the work of my kin bold and boyful
Gbm                      Db9       Gbm
Toying somewhere between love and abuse
E                        A
Calling to join them the wretched and joyful
Gbm                        Db9      Gbm
Shaking the wings of their terrible youths

Verse 2:
Gbm                      Db9      Gbm
Freshly disowned in some frozen devotion
Gbm                Db9          Gbm
No more alone or myself could I be
E                           A
Lurched like a stray to the arms that were open
   Gbm                    Db9          Gbm
No shortage of sordid, no protest from me

Chorus:
        Gbm                       A
With her sweetened breath, and her tongue so mean
         E                            Gbm
She's the angel of small death and the codeine scene
        Gbm                    A
With her straw-blonde hair, her arms hard and lean
         E                            Gbm
She's the angel of small death and the codeine scene

Verse 3:
Gbm                    Db9           Gbm
Feeling more human and Hooked on her flesh, I
Gbm                        Db9         Gbm
Lay my heart down with the rest at her feet
E                          A
Fresh from the fields, all fetor and fertile
Gbm                        Db9         Gbm
It's bloody and raw, but I swear it is sweet

Chorus:
        Gbm                       A
With her sweetened breath, and her tongue so mean
         E                            Gbm
She's the angel of small death and the codeine scene
        Gbm                    A
With her straw-blonde hair, her arms hard and lean
         E                            Gbm
She's the angel of small death and the codeine scene

Verse 4:
Gbm                       Db9        Gbm
Leashless confusion, I'll wander the concrete
Gbm                  Db9       Gbm
Wonder if better now having survived
E                        A
Jarring of judgement and reasons defeat
          Gbm                      Db9        Gbm
The sweet heat of her breath in my mouth I'm alive

Chorus -x2-:
        Gbm                       A
With her sweetened breath, and her tongue so mean
         E                            Gbm
She's the angel of small death and the codeine scene
        Gbm                    A
With her straw-blonde hair, her arms hard and lean
         E                            Gbm
She's the angel of small death and the codeine scene
