A 
Drag my tongue across the sand 
Em 
So happy just to crawl across the land 
A 
Soon I'll be the best around 
Em 
I'm gonna keep my plunder underground 
A 
Hard flesh cold against the rain 
Em 
Dust billowing around my brazen brain 
A 
Saw off all my stinking limbs 
Em 
Blood dripping down my sunken money chin 


A 
Baby can you leave it in the (distant past)? 
Baby can you leave it in the (distant past)? 
D 
Girl, I'm from the very very (distant past) 
Girl, I'm from the very very (distant past) 
A 
Baby can you leave me in the (distant past)? 
Baby can you leave me in the (distant past)? 
D 
Girl, I wanna take you to the (distant past) 
Girl, I wanna take you to the (distant past)

A 
Two thumbs across the Rubicon 
Em 
Slack jaw but you'll never be passing it on 
A 
Plug hole, down the drain you go 
Em 
Your body never made it past the snow 
A 
Canine fangs about my throat 
Em 
You're bleeding over Eden like a goat 
A 
Tall blade dripping in every field 
Em 
I'm blooming like a fuming human shield
