E
Absolve, absolve, absolve
             B                      G#m
We spent the better part of the day
 B               G#m    E       D#m      C#m
Waiting for the wave to hit our side of town

It didn't
   E
Absolve, absolve, absolve
             B                           G#m
I washed my hands of the stuff of legends
     B                        G#m
And what news of the horizon?
             B          G#m       E
I hear it's all just a horizontal myth
    D#m      C#m                       C#
So stop your cruising, start your criticizing, oh
    C#       D#m      E
Indulge yourself for once, feel medium between them
     B         G#m
God damn, your eyes
            B     G#m    C#     D#m             E
They just had to be twin prizes waiting for the sun
         B         G#m
And God damn, your eyes
            B     G#m     C#    D#m             E
They just had to be twin prizes waiting for the sun
            B     G#m     C#    D#m             E
They just had to be twin prizes waiting for the sun
            B     G#m     C#    D#m             E

[Interlude]
B - E

[Verse]
         B
See them sporting those eagle iron-ons
     E
You made me swear never to wear
     G#m
Why did you spend the '90s cowering?
     E
Why did you spend the '90s cowering?
             B
And they're singing those inspirationals
     E
You penned back in '72
        G#m
And the hotels of choice are now toasting your voice
        E                                                  B
As the spas ring out, "What's another word for sacrament?"

[Interlude]
E - G#m - E


[Verse]
    B
The world woke up one day to proclaim
       E
"Thou shalt not take part in, or make, bad art"
         B
In these tough, tough times

Friends like mine would rather dash than dine
       E
On the bones of what's thrown to them
       F#
When a wave of her wand has us back at the pond
       E
Taking notes for our crooked underground

B - E (Repeat as many times as needed)

[Verse]
    B
The world woke up one day to proclaim
                 E
"Thou shalt not make or take part in the bad arts"
              B
You see, the singer sold us out
                                            E
The guitarist lost his clout on Life-Of-The-Mind Day
     B
When signs become impure again
     E
The crowd doesn't know where or when
          B
To let it all hang out

Bloodlet yourself, street style


[Outro]
               B                      E
