Parting Of The Sensory Chords
[Verse 1]
There's no Amwork in walking Gin to fuel the talFk
I would grab my Amshoes and then Gaway I'd Fwalk
Through all the stubborn Ambeauty I start Gat the Fdawn
Until the sun had Amfully stopped
Never Gwalking Faway from
Just a way to pull Amapart
Dehydrate Gback into Fminerals
A life long walk to Amthe same Gexact Fspot
[Chorus 1]
FCarbon's anniversaryAm  G  F  
FThe parting of the sensoryAm  G  F  
FOld old mysteryAm  G  F  
FThe parting of the sensory
[Verse 2]
AmWho the Ghell made you the Fboss?
AmWe placed our Gchips in all the right Fspots
FBut still lost
AmAny Gshithead who had ever Fwalked
AmCould take the Gship and do a much finer Fjob

Parting Of The Sensory Chords

[Verse 1]

Am G F

There's no work in walking in to fuel the talk

Am G F

I would grab my shoes and then away I'd walk

Am G F

Through all the stubborn beauty I start at the dawn

Until the sun had fully stopped

G F

Never walking away from

Just a way to pull apart

G F

Dehydrate back into minerals

Am G F

A life long walk to the same exact spot

[Chorus 1]

F Am G F

Carbon's anniversary

F Am G F

The parting of the sensory

F Am G F

Old old mystery

The parting of the sensory

[Verse 2]

Am G F

Who the hell made you the boss?

Am G F

We placed our chips in all the right spots

But still lost

Am G F

Any shithead who had ever walked

Am G F

Could take the ship and do a much finer job

Am G F

This fit like clothes made out of wasps

Am G F

Aw, fuck it I guess I lost

Am G F

[Chorus 2]

F Am G F

The parting of the sensory

F A G F

Carbon's anniversary

F Am G F

Just part it again if you please

Carbon's anniversary

[Verse 3]

Am G F

Who the hell made you the boss

Am G F

If you say what to do I know what not to stop

Am G F

If you were the ship then who would ever get on

Am G F

The weather changed it for the worse

Am G F

And came down on us like it had been rehearsed

Am G F

And like we hope, but change will surely come

Am G F

And be awful for most but really good for some

Am G F

I took a trip to the exact same spot

Am G F

We pulled the trigger, but we forgot to cock

And every single shot

Am G F

Aw, fuck it I guess we lost

Am G F

[Bridge]

Some day you will die and

G F

Somehow something's going to steal your carbon

Some day you will die and

G F

Somehow something's going to steal your carbon

Well some day you will die somehow and

G F

Something's going to steal your carbon

Some day you will die and

G F

Someone's or something's will steal your carbon

Some day something will die and

Somehow you'll figure out how

Often you will die somehow and

Well some day you will die somehow and

G F

Something's going to steal your carbon
