You [G] see me now, [D] veteran of [C] a thousand psychic [Gm] wars. _
I've been living on the edge [Bb] so long, [C] where the winds of [Gm] limbo roar.
And I'm [C] yin and [Gm] I'm to the gap, and [C] far too [Gm] cold to see.
[Eb] All the stars are on [G] these _ _ eyes. _ _ _ _ _
_ [Gm] _ [D] _ [G] _ _ [C] _ I'm not sure that there's [A] anything left to [D] me.
_ _ _ _ [C] So let these shakes [G] go on.
It's [C] time we had [Gm] a [C] break from it. _ _ _
_ [Gm] _ _ _ _ [C] _ _ _
_ _ _ _ [Cm] It's time we had [G] some leave. _ _ _ _
[Bb] We've [C] been living in the flames. _
We've been eating up our brains.
_ [Bb] _
[C] Oh, _ [Bb] please, don't let [G] these shakes go _ on. _ _ _
You ask me why I'm [Gm] weary. _ _
[C] Why I can't speak [Gm] to you. _ _
You blame me for [D] my silence.
Say [C] it's time I changed [Gm] you. _
But [C] the war's still going [Gm] on, dear, and [C] there's no end that [G] I know. _
[Eb] And I can't say [Gm] it forever. _
_ _ _ [G] _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ [C] I can't say if [Ab] we're ever [Eb] going to be [D] free.
_ _ _ _ [C] Don't let these shakes [G] go on.

You see me now, veteran _ of [C] a thousand psychic [Gm] wars. _
[G] My energy is spent to last, and my [C] armor is [Gm] destroyed. _
[C] I have used up [Gm] all my weapons, [C] and I'm helpless and [Gm] bereaved.
_ _ [Eb] Wounds are all [G] I'm made _ of. _ _ _ _ _
_ [Gm] _ _ _ _ [C] Did I even say [Ab] that this is [D] victory? _
_ _ _ _ [C] Don't let these shakes [G] go on.
_ [C] It's time we had a break from it. _ _ _
_ [Gm] _ _ _ _ [Cm] _ _ _
_ [C] _ _ _ _ [Cm] _ Send me to [G] the rear, _ _ _ where [C] the time will mend us well, [Bb]
and [C] be slain in the hell. _ _ _
Oh, _ [D] please, don't [Dm] let these shakes [Gm] go _ _ on. _ _
_ _ _ _ _ Don't let these shakes go on.
