Descending

        D D D Asus A Asus G
Have mercy baby
                D D D Asus A Asus G
I'm descending again
                D D D Asus A Asus G
Open your eyes, babe
                  D D D Asus A Asus G
This time it's sink or it's swim
                D D D Asus A Asus G
No sermons on ascending
                D D D Asus A Asus G
No verdict on deceit
                D D D Asus A Asus G
No selfish memorandum
                D D D Asus A Asus G
No confusion for me

[Chorus]
A   G
Curses
A          G
Curses and clues
A       D   D
A feast for fools

[Instrumental break]

[Verse 2]
                  D D D Asus A Asus G
Have mercy baby
                  D D D Asus A Asus G
And hand me downs
                  D D D Asus A Asus G
It was just a few years ago
                  D D D Asus A Asus G
You'd hand me ups and map
             D D D Asus A Asus G
Right out of town
                  D D D Asus A Asus G
But I would let it slide
          D D D Asus A Asus G
Like mercury
          D D D Asus A Asus G
Silver and quick, babe
                D D D Asus A Asus G
Poisonous and deadly
        D D D Asus A Asus G
So deadly

[Chorus]
A   G
Curses
A          G
Curses and clues
A           D   D
A feast for fools
