Give me back my [Em] broken neck, [Dm] my mirror broke, my secret life [D] is lonely here, [E] there's no [Bm] one left [Am] to torture
Give me absolute [C] control [Dm]
over every living soul, [D] and that's on me [E] baby, [D] that's [Am] an order
Give me crack, anal [Em] sex, [Dm]
take the only tree that's left, [D]
stuff it [E] up the hole in [Am] your culture
Give me that back from a [G] burning [Dm] mall, give me style, and the same part [D] I've seen in future [E] brother, [D] it [Am] is murder
Give me anger, [Dm]
bring the [C] broadside, slide in all directions, [Dm] and nothing [C] you can't measure anymore
[Dm] The blizzard, the blizzard [C] of [F] the world has crossed the threshold and [Fm] it's over time, the order of [C] the soul
[G]
[A]
[Am] When [G] I said repent, repent, repent, I wonder [Am]
what they meant
[G]
[A]
[Am]
You don't know me from [G] the wind, [Dm] you never will, you never did, [Ab]
I'm the little [E] Jew who [Am] wrote the Bible
I've seen the nations rise [Em] and fall, [Dm] I've heard their stories, heard them all, [D] but love's the only [E] [Bm] engine of [Am]
survival
You're still out here, he has been [G] told, [Dm] to say it clear, to say it cool, [Ab] it's over, it [E] ain't going any [Am]
further
And now the wheels of heaven [Em] stop, [Dm] you feel the devil's riding crop, [D] get ready for [E] the future, [Bm] it [Am] is murder
Give me anger, [Dm]
bring the [C] broadside, slide in all directions, and [Dm] nothing you [C] can't measure anymore
[Dm] The blizzard, the blizzard [C] of the world has [F] crossed the [D] threshold and [Fm] it's over time, the order of [C] the soul
[G] When they said repent, [D] [G] repent, repent, I [Am] wonder what [Em] they meant
[Am] [G] When they said repent, repent, repent, [D] I wonder [Am]
what they meant
When [G] they said repent, repent, repent, I wonder [Am]
what they meant
There'll be the break-in of the ancient western code, your [Dm]
private life will suddenly explode
There'll [Am] be phantoms, there'll be fires on the road, and a white [B] man [F]
dancing
[E]
You'll see [Am] a woman named Sandell, [Dm] her features covered by her fallen gown
And [Am] all the lousy little poets coming round, trying to [C] sound like Charlie [F]
Manson, [E]
you hear the white man [Am]
dancing
Give me a bank, a burning [Em] wall, [Dm] give me a star, an NC hall, [D] give me [E] Christ or give me [D] [Am] Hiroshima
Destroy another, feed [Em] us now, we [Dm]
don't let children in at all, [D] I've seen the future, [E] it [Bm] [Am] is murder
[Dm]
Things are gonna [Am] slide, [C]
slide in all directions, [D] won't [Dm] be nothing, nothing you [C] can measure anymore
[Dm] The blizzard, the blizzard [Am] of [F] the world has crossed the threshold [Fm] and it's over time, the order of [C] the soul
[G] When they said repent, [D] repent, [G]
repent, I wonder [Am] what they meant
When [G] they said repent, repent, repent, I wonder [Am] what they meant
When they [G]
said repent, repent, repent, I wonder [Am]
what they meant
[G] When they said repent, repent, repent, I wonder what they meant
[Am] [G] [A]
