Oh, sweet thing, [B] Zion doesn't love you
[E] Babylon [F#] don't love you
But you love [B] everything
Oh, you saint, a married girl don't love you
So why I could [F#] never love you
In spite of [B] everything
[D#] In the dark [D#] of this place
[G#m] There's the glow of your face
[C#m] There's the dust on the screen
[B] Of this broken machine
[D#] And I can't [G#m] help but feel
That I made some mistake
But I [C#m] let it go Yeah, [B] yeah
[E] To the fire, to the [F#] flames
[B]
[E] You won't even [B] say your name
To the
[E] fire, to the [F#] flames
You won't even say your [B] name
Only
[E] I'm blind
Who could ever live that [F#] way?
[B] What's your way out?
[E] What's your, your
[B]
Oh, the motherland [E] don't love you
The [B] fatherland don't love [F#] you
So why love anything?
Oh, look out
The faithless, [E] they don't love you
The zealous [F#] hearts don't love you
I [B] don't wanna change
[D#] All the good, present facts
[G#m] All the bad, I don't understand
[C#m] All the tension and fear
[B] Of a secret [F#] career
[G#m] And I can't help but feel
That you see the mistakes
But you [C#m] let it go
Yeah, [B] [E] yeah
To the fire, [B] to the flames
[E] You won't even [B] say your name
[E] To the fire, to the [F#] flames
You won't even say your [B] name
Only
[E] I'm blind
Who could ever live that [F#] [B]
[E] way?
[B] Outside the tent, on the festival grounds
[E] As the [C#m] air began to cool and the sun went down
[B] My soul swooned as I faintly heard the sound
Of [F#] Youssef bin Israel heads into 19th notice breakdown
[G#m] To the fire, to the flames
[E]
[B] You won't even say your name
[F#] To the fire, to the [D#m] flames
You won't even say your [B] name
Only [E] I'm blind
[F#] [B]
[C#] [E]
[F#] You won't even say your [B] name
Only I'm blind
