The Only Thing Lyrics

(First is this 5-chord cycle)
Em G A (<---- CRUCIAL CHORD, ARAARARARGH) Am D
The only thing that keeps me from driving this car
Half-light jack knife into the canyon at night
Signs and Wonders: Perseus aligned with the skull
Slain Medusa: Pegasus alight from us all
horus 1
Do I care if I survive this? Bury the dead where they're found
In a veil of great surprises, I wonder did you love me at all
The only thing that keeps me from cutting my arm
Cross-hatch warm bath Holiday Inn after dark
Signs and Wonders: water stain writing the wall
Daniel's message: blood of the moon on us all
horus 2
Do I care if I despise this? Nothing else matters, I know.
In a veil of great disguises, how do I live with your ghost?

(This next G sounds really good if you barre it like you would an F. Just make an barred F relative to capo 8
and then slide it up 2 steps. Voila, same chord!)
Should I tear my eyes out now?
Everything I see returns to you somehow.
Should I tear my heart out now?
Everything I feel returns to you somehow.
I want to save you from your sorrow.
The only reason why I continue at all
Faith in reason, I've wasted my life playing dumb.
Signs and Wonders: Sea Lion caves in the dark.
Blind faith, God's Grace, nothing else left to impart.
horus 3
Do I care if I survive this? Bury the dead where they're found
In a veil of great surprises; hold to my head till I drown
oda
Should I tear my eyes out now before I see too much?
Should I tear my arms out now, I want to feel your touch.
Should I tear my eyes out now?
Everything I see returns to you somehow.
Should I tear my heart out now?
Everything I feel returns to you somehow.
