This is my very first submission, so it's bound to be imperfect. Sorry about the flaws! It works fine for me, though. Intro: D Em 4x D G D Em D Verse:
D      Em
     Comet streams and the rocket scenes and cyclone-turning seas

D    Em
 Thy foes profanely rage

D  Em
   Hands washed, Pontius-Pilate-clean in proud Euphrates' stream 

D     Em 
 Where no one knows my name
Chorus:
Em       G     D    Em    D
 I'll be long, long gone
Verse:
D    Em
    Tolling bells through Courchevel, all moon-rides, lifts are full

D      Em
 Go search the world beneath. 

D    Em
    Cladding breach at 3-mile beach, all spent fuel pools are full

D      Em
 It's all the same to me
Chorus:
Em       G     D    Em   D
 I'll be long, long gone

          G     D       Em
 I'll be long, long gone

 G                D    
 In such fell repose, you suppose

       Em         D       G   
 That mouth will finally close

              Em   D       Em
 When you're long long gone?
Interlude: Percussion, then...key change! Dm C Dm C Gm F A Part 2:
Dm 
 I was born of a thought of mine
I was the ISIS flag design
Gm
 You were a Lilac Queen

F                      A7
Paddling through your empire's streams

Dm
 I was born of a thought of mine
Born of the stillborn heart of mine
Gm
 You were the Werewolf King

F                    A7
Peddling round your sapphire ring

Dm
 Soon is the swing of the Hammerhand
Same is the low-flying day of the Vultureman
Gm
 Circling the earth I go

F                  A7
Slobbering out my oatmeal wisdom:

Dm
 Nearer the boots to the stolid floor
Or restless thought to the waves of a foreign shore?
Gm
 Racing the sun, I rose

F                  A7
Hastening lest thy gates be closed;

    Dm   
But I, but I find, but I find

        Gm                       F           A          
But I find, dadadadada, dadadadada, dadadadada

                Dm
that there is time
And then I didn't bother to figure out the outro....sorry. Just play Dm forever. (;
