[Verse 1]
D5       Ab5   G5  F5
  It was springtime
D5                Ab5 G5    F5   Ab5 G5 F5
  The minutes simp___ly drifting away
D5                Ab5    G5 F5
  Then everything stopped   in the world
D5 Eb5 E5 Bb5 C5

[Pre-Chorus 1]
D5     Ab5 G5          F5
  Radioac___tive clouds
D5            Ab5 G5      F5 Ab5 G5 F5
  Hides the exclusion zone
D5             Ab5 G5        F5
  And you were no___where to be found
D5 Eb5 E5 Bb5 C5

[Chorus]
D5 Db5         C5       B5      D5
   I  see your face, wherever I turn
        Db5         C5
There's blood on my lips,
      A5                D5
as my eyes start to burn
    Db5           C5            B5
You vanished, and left me behind
     Bb5        E5          G5
Like one of the dogs of Chernobyl
A5            D5
Where did you go?

[Verse 2]
D5        Ab5 G5   F5    D5               Ab5  G5   F5
  Nuclear winter is  here  Reactor four's still  belching
      Ab5 G5 F5
clouds
D5               Ab5 G5       F5
  There's no one left  to hear  a sound
D5 Eb5 E5 Bb5 C5

[Pre-Chorus]
D5                  Ab5 G5       F5          D5
  On and on, I keep searching for  you But I know,
                    Ab5 G5      F5 Ab5 G5 F5
I know you're never co_ming back
D5                   Ab5 G5   F5
  Not for me, or for a__nyone,  anywhere,
   D5 Eb5
anyway
E5 Bb5 C5

[Chorus]
D5 Db5         C5       B5      D5
   I  see your face, wherever I turn
        Db5         C5
There's blood on my lips,
      A5                D5
as my eyes start to burn
    Db5           C5            B5
You vanished, and left me behind
     Bb5        E5          G5
Like one of the dogs of Chernobyl
A5            D5
Where did you go?
Db5         C5       B5      D5
I  see your face, wherever I turn
   Db5            C5
My hair's falling out,
      A5                 D5
as my skin starts to burn
    Db5           C5            B5
You vanished, and left me behind
     Bb5        E5          G5
Like one of the dogs of Chernobyl
A5            D5
Where did you go?

[Verse 3]
     Ab5 D5
Vault      breach, too close is dead,
                       Ab5
massive exposure I must
  D5
escape,
and navigate this concrete enclosure
   Ab5      D5
No warning, and no pain,
                                Ab5
only shock and then dread No one
  D5          Gb5
coming, no one   going,
         D5             Ab5
I'm alive  with the dead

[Solo 2]
D5 Ab5 D5 Ab5
D5 Ab5 D5 Gb5

[Verse 4]
D5      Ab5 D5
  Nausea    overwhelms my brain,
distance is the goal
        Ab5     D5
Stomach spasms, leaking gut,
I have lost all control
       Ab5 D5
Saliva gurgling, I'm retching,
till I overwhelm the bowl
      Ab5  D5      Gb5
I ask God, in repentance,
             D5              Ab5
"Do you still  want my soul?"

[Solo 3]
D5 Ab5 D5 Ab5
D5 Ab5 D5 Gb5

[Verse 5]
D5       Bb5   E5
  Bodies strewn  everywhere,
no need for cremation
         A#5 E5
Daylight co_ming into view,
                                        A#5
I sense there's no salvation Stagger out
E5
into the open, my eyes fixed and staring
         A#5  E5
Armed patrol, red lights on,
                         G#5
the sirens are a' blaring

[Solo 4]
D5 Ab5 D5 Ab5
D5 Ab5 D5 Gb5

[Verse 6]
D5  Bb5 E5
  I am  the walking dead,
and I'm taken into safety
         A#5 E5
They ask the time of death,
because my skin's looking pasty
     A#5 E5
Transfu_sions, test tubes,
and clinical eyeing
A#5 E5
Purulence and decay,
my deathly complying

[Outro]
G#5 D5                           Ab5
Blankets of smoke, orifices bleed
    D5
Bloating bellies, and legs getting weak
  Ab5 D5                              Ab5
Cerebral swelling, organs liquifying A
    D5    Gb5    D5                  Bb5
cute  radiation, this is how they die
D5 Gb5 D5                  Bb5
       This is how they die
D5 Gb5 D5                  Bb5 D5 Gb5 D5
       This is how they die
