C G/B F2/A
[Verse 1]
C G/B F2/A Sunset is an angel weeping C G/B F2/A Holding out a bloody sword C G/B F2/A No matter how I squint I cannot C G/B F2/A Make out what it's pointing toward
[Chorus]
F G Sometimes you feel like you've lived too long Am The days drip slowly on the page F And you catch yourself G F G Pacing the cage
[Verse 2]
C G/B F2/A I've proved who I am so many times C G/B F2/A The magnetic strips worn thin C G/B F2/A And each time I was someone else C G/B F2/A And everyone was taken in
[Chorus]
F G Powers chatter in high places Am Stir up eddies in the dust of rage
F G
F G Set me to pacing the cage
[Verse 3]
C G/B F2/A I never knew what you all wanted C G/B F2/A So I gave you everything C G/B F2/A All that I could pillage C G/B F2/A All the spells that I could sing
[Chorus]
F G It's as if the thing were written Am In the constitution of the age F Sooner or later G F G you'll wind up Pacing the cage

C G/B F2/A Sometimes the best map will not guide you C G/B F2/A You can't see what's round the bend C G/B F2/A Sometimes the road leads through dark places C G/B F2/A Sometimes the darkness is your friend
[Chorus]
