Em                       G
I knew a man who found a forest overseas
C
He grew his beard like the grounds bear trees
Em                    G        
Callous his hands, his heart bled dry
C
He kept his fire in the clutch of his eyes
Em                             G
He painted with a dark stroke, dirty on the canvas
C
Creation was holy but we chose against it
Em                           G
The devil knows he's evil no need to proclaim
C
It's the choices we make the bring glory to his name

Em                          G
Mr. Fox I know you've got a secret to tell
C
But folks we live just to hear ourselves
Em              G
Talk, talk talk
C
Non stop stop stop
Em                    G
And it goes goes goes
C
Until we know, know, know
Em                  D/F# G C
Know not what we say
Em                  D/F# G C
Know not what we do
Em                      G
I knew a lady lost the forest for the trees
C
She grew a lust to bury all underneath
Em                      G
She cut to their heart, she bled them dry
C
She kept her fire burning up to the sky
Em                                G
She's building up her kingdom of sticks and stones
C
I hear the words in between they tend to never hold
Em                            G
Was she living ever after or making belief
C                                
She kept away from the heart the things unseen

[Verse]
C                      G
I don't want to be your monkey boy
Em              
But my cymbals are crashing
G
My teeth oh they chatter
C                         G
Cause I'm cold, cold, cold
Em                              G
Without your claps, claps, claps
C                           G
And I don't know, know know
Em                      
If this is ever, ever gonna stop
