Wonder at the scarlet avenger

D5 C Em Am

Who tore out all my vitals

Am B/G C D5

Washed them pink and clean

D5 C Em

Never did I see such an ugly confession

Sprung from my lips and met with open arms

No I'm owing more

It's a shot of neon crimson to the brain

[Verse]

G D5

Lost sight in the streets of Manhattan

D5 C Em Am

Walked alone through the George Square

Am B/G C D5

Down the old fifth avenue

D5 C Em

Never had I felt more alone in the big lights

C Em Am C

I almost told you I wasn't coming home

D5 C Em

And all the buildings were hiding my view of

C Em C Em

Where I'm from and what I want

Am C

It's a shot of neon crimson to the brain

[Verse]

G D5

Taste me, it's not wrong to embrace me

C Em Am

I know I seem like a stranger

Am B/G C

Like a song you used to sing

D5 C

But here I, here I stand at your feet

Em C Em

And you're finding words to say

Am C

But the only thing that matters anyway

Am C

Is a shot of neon crimson to the brain
