[VERSE 1]
The Dsus2sun comes up with promise and my Geyes burn open wide
And the Csting compounds the Gtorture from the Dsus2vacant hole inside
My conscious recollection of the Gpast events all seem
To Cverify the Gemotion that Dsus2now envelops me
[CHORUS]
COhG/Bhhh GhooFoh Ddogged as a drone
COhG/Bhhh GhooFoh Dstagnant as the stone
COhG/Bhhh GhooFoh Dweathered and alone
DLiDsus4ving  Gon the Dfault lineDsus4  D  
[VERSE 2]
There's Dsus2no one here to listen, there's Galways room for more
They preCtend to give you Gyour say beCfore they Gslam the Ddoor
There's Dsus2very little patiDence and Dsus2very little love
There's Cjust your constant Gpuzzlement for Cwhat you're Gguilty Dof
[CHORUS]
COhG/Bhhh GhooFoh Ddogged as a drone
COhG/Bhhh GhooFoh Dstagnant as the stone
COhG/Bhhh GhooFoh Dweathered and alone
DLiDsus4ving  Gon the Dfault line
[VERSE 3]
No Done need deliver me from such Ga familiar place
I've Ccome to terms and Gwork in this riDsus2bald downtrodden state
It's subliminal friction unGder a kind veneer
And a Cform of cold inGjustice that Dkeeps me stationed here
[CHORUS]
COhG/Bhhh GhooFoh Ddogged as a drone
COhG/Bhhh GhooFoh Dstagnant as the stone
COhG/Bhhh GhooFoh Dweathered and alone

[VERSE 1]

Dsus2 G

The sun comes up with promise and my eyes burn open wide

C G Dsus2

And the sting compounds the torture from the vacant hole inside

My conscious recollection of the past events all seem

C G Dsus2

To verify the emotion that now envelops me

[CHORUS]

C G/B G F D

Ohhhh hoooh dogged as a drone

C G/B G F D

Ohhhh hoooh stagnant as the stone

C G/B G F D

Ohhhh hoooh weathered and alone

D Dsus4 G D Dsus4 D

Living on the fault line

[VERSE 2]

Dsus2 G

There's no one here to listen, there's always room for more

C G C G D

They pretend to give you your say before they slam the door

Dsus2 D Dsus2

There's very little patience and very little love

C G C G D

There's just your constant puzzlement for what you're guilty of

[CHORUS]

C G/B G F D

Ohhhh hoooh dogged as a drone

C G/B G F D

Ohhhh hoooh stagnant as the stone

C G/B G F D

Ohhhh hoooh weathered and alone

D Dsus4 G D

Living on the fault line

[VERSE 3]

D G

No one need deliver me from such a familiar place

C G Dsus2

I've come to terms and work in this ribald downtrodden state

It's subliminal friction under a kind veneer

C G D

And a form of cold injustice that keeps me stationed here

[CHORUS]

C G/B G F D

Ohhhh hoooh dogged as a drone

C G/B G F D

Ohhhh hoooh stagnant as the stone

C G/B G F D

Ohhhh hoooh weathered and alone

D Dsus4 G D

Living on the fault line

D Dsus4 G D

Living on the fault line

D Dsus4 G D

Living on the fault line
