[Bm] [D] [Bm]
[A] [Bm]
[D] [Bm]
On a smoky day in a dark [D] installery Down by [A] the river in a factory [Bm] town
Where bad things happen and the walls are [D] dripping
And the [A] ghosts are [Bm] flitting through the cold hard ground
A pot and kettle on the hub were [D] settled A hiss and there [A] patters old Billy as [Bm] crow
An offy matter, a clout and clatter [D] And battle [A] and wits [Bm] in a hideous duo
The limbs are rattling, belches [D] steam Life ain't nothing but [A] a fever dream
[B] You're a [Bm] lowly villain, you're a terrible [D] liar But we're both here [Bm] cooking on the same
old fire Guts are bubbling, belches [D] steam
Life [A] ain't nothing but a fever [Bm] dream You're a shanty boy, you're a shite for [D] brains
But [A] we're both [Bm] here hanging on the same old chains
[B] I've roasted a wealth of exotic [D] things All torn to [A] ribbons at the hands of [Bm] kings
Polished cot for how proudly [D] shunned [A] Stealing the [B] fire of the blazing sun
You've popped them air and ammo suit [D] bongs And popped the [A] teeth of them stale [B] eagles
And we're rattling like a drum, each hug the [D] nail
And scrub [A] to the [B] devil on the following day
The limbs are rattling, belches [D] steam Life ain't nothing [A] but a fever dream
[B] You're a lowly villain, you're a terrible liar [D] But we're both [A] here cooking [B] on the same old fire
Guts are bubbling, [D] belches steam Life ain't nothing [A] but a fever dream

You're a shanty boy, you're a shite for [D] brains But we're both here [Bm] hanging on the same old chains
Can't help your metal, it's a terrible [D] cure
Red or white [A] holes, can it hold you [Bm] through?
Your limbs are crooked and your sides fleshed [D] in
Metal no [A] longer holding on, [Bm] look what you've seen up in the Pot!
You're not so bright as [D] me
Exile, [A] call, who's all you'll [Bm] be?
You're weak, you're drooling, you're done too [D] young
[A] Sick of the [Bm] carry, let the pills endow
Lips are rattling, belching [D] steam
Life ain't nothing [A] but a fever [Bm] dream
You're a lonely villain
You're a terrible [D] liar
You're a weak, lowly figure, [Bm] cooking up the same old fire
Guts are bubbling, belching [D] steam
Life ain't nothing [A] but a fever dream
[Bm] You're an old, pissed bucket
You're a dead guy
[D] Buried in heat, [A] the red is black [Bm] as an erupting pan!
So, metal's in, helps you [D] see
Life ain't [A] nothing but a fever [Bm] dream
You're an ugly villain
You're a terrible [D] liar
You're a weak, lowly figure, [Bm] cooking up the same old fire
Guts are bubbling, belching [D] steam
Life ain't [A] nothing but a fever [Bm] dream
You're a shameful [D] brain
You're a broken [Bm] man of the same old [B] taste
