The Oh Hellos – Torches (Guitar)

D                                            Em
I got a venom like a snake running out of my mouth

                          G
(running out of my mouth, running out of my mouth)

             D
It's got you burning at the stake

            Em                      G
Innocent or not, you're not a bet I care to take

           Bm             D                   C
And Father ignorance will make brothers of us all

                     Em
(brothers of us all, brothers of us all)

      Bm              D
As he sets our torch aflame

                 C                       Em          G
Chasing down the flimsy specters that we co-create

Bm
Over and over, again

             D            G
We keep that old wheel turning

                  D
We spin it around

D                                               Em
I got a terror I can't shake pushing down on my lungs

                           G
(pushing down on my lungs, pushing down on my lungs)

            D
It's got me lying there awake

                 Em                        G    Em
with a hand on a gun while turning shadows into shapes

          Bm           D                   C
Mother Fortuna, O, she makes sisters of us all

                    Em
(sisters of us all, sisters of us all)

         Bm           D
When the faces in her wake

                   C                        G        C
Look more like our own than the effigies we immolate

                G
Over and over, again

                          Bm
We keep that old wheel turning

                D
Over and over, again

                      C
We lay the next spoke down

                G
Over and over, again (oceans will roll in)

                D
Over and over, again,         Let's turn it around!
