Chords

As recorded by Mars Volta (From the 2009 Album OCTAHEDRON) [Intro] Em B [Verse 1]
    Em
I'm bolted from within

Em
From long conniving heights

             B
The hail, it makes a special sound

B
That always stays into the night

    Em
She tells me I'm not capable of what they accuse me

     B
With no remorse I stand and say that "guilty" is what I plead
[Chorus]
   D
My devil makes me dream

D
Like no other mortal dreams

       Em
With a blank eye corner

    Am
The only way to see him in the tunnel where he slept

       C                          
By the longest tusk of corridors, numb below the neck

      Bm              B7                             Em
In my heart, where he keeps them in a vault of devil daughters
[Interlude] Em B7 [Verse 2]
       Em
When I bend in kicking form

Em
With twilight as my guide

         Bm
In every home the ghost veins gossip

Bm
You can hear them if you try

        Em
When my quill begins to squirm from the ashes in your urn

     Bm                       B7
Your deviance is anything but faithful
[Chorus]
   D
My devil makes me dream

D
Like no other mortal dreams

       Em
With a blank eye corner

    Am
The only way to see him in the tunnel where he slept

       C                          
By the longest tusk of corridors, numb below the neck

      Bm              B7                             Em
In my heart, where he keeps them in a vault of devil daughters
[Bridge]
Em         G
Every body hangs like dead leaves

Em                   G
Don't you hurt these branches waiting

Em                 G
I've been watching you fall to me

Em               G
Don't desert me, I'm not waiting
[Interlude] Em G Em [Chorus]
   D
My devil makes me dream

D
Like no other mortal dreams

       Em
With a blank eye corner

    Am
The only way to see him in the tunnel where he slept

       C                          
By the longest tusk of corridors, numb below the neck

      Bm              C               G              Em
In my heart, where he keeps them in a vault of devil daughters
[Outro] Em Bm Em Bm Em Bm Em D Em
