Hot Knives
[Intro] 
GGGC
    x 4
[Verse]
     G      G         G      C         G     G     G   C
The Wife forgave the Mistress for she only entertained
     G         G         G   C       G          G         G          C
The pain was gone the instant she cleared her throat to speak her name
        Em                              C
Said, "Both of us must suffer from the same unending ache"
[Instrumental]
GGGC

[Verse]
      G        G        G    C            G       G      G   C
The world was not of interest though her days were never dull
     G     G        G    C      G        G        G    C
Her bed beneath a crucifix on guests performing miracles
         Em                             C             GGGC
                                                          x2
With the Son of God just hanging like a common criminal
      Am          C                      GGGC
                                             x2          
When I do wrong I am with God, she thought
      Am         C             GGGC
                                   x2
When I feel lost I am not at all
[Chorus]
            Bm
So give me Black Light (Give Give me)
            C
So give me Hot Knives (Deep Clean sleep)
       Am                 D
On a dance floor no one tells time (There is no time)
[Verse]
        Am                  C                      GGGC
                                                       x2
Oh, I've made love, yeah, I've been fucked, so what?
        Am             C                       GGGC
                                                   x2
I'm a cartoon, you're a full moon, let's stay up
      G      G     G    C          G    G        G  C
She went to see a Mystic who made medicine from rain
      G      G      G    C          G       G         G          C
And gave up her existence to feel everything, dream others' dreams
       Em                      C                GGGC
                                                    x2
Bid farewell to her family with one ecstatic wave (Please take care I love you all)
          Am         C              GGGC
                                        x2
Out the window as the car rolled away
          Am             C                  GGGC
                                                x2
She just vanished into a thick mist of change
[Chorus]
            Bm
So let us rejoice (Let's Rejoice!)
              C
In all this Pink Noise (Out Pink Noise!)
         Am                 D
An oscillation that we can pin point (We're right here!)
