Blood Of The Scribe

[Intro]
D5 A#5 A5

[Verse 1]
D5
  All of this comes crashing down
Cornerstone's gone
Sleepless
Hopeless
               A#5 A5
No end in sight

[Bridge]
D5 A#5 A5  D5    E5  F5
   Ink well  has run dry,
D5 A#5  A5 F5   G5    F#5 D#5 D5
   fill it with blood of  the scribe

[Break]
F#5 F5 D5 F#5
F5 D5
           F#5     F5
Rest comes easy to the guiltless
D5            F#5        F5           G5 F#5
  The vampire laments as he prays for the
D#5 D5
    sun

[Verse 2]
E5
  Doom, despair,
                             D5
tragedy are the tools of the trade

[Chorus]
D5           A#5
  Cut to the bone
Rob the grave
D5            A#5
  Unearth the stone
    A#5 F#5 D#5 D5
Lay to          waste
           A#5
Defile the tome
        D5
Rip the page
               A#5
Strip mine the vein
    A#5 F#5 D#5 D5
Lay to          waste

[Verse 3]
G5              F5
  Frayed at the edge
     D5
Flat lined
G5         F5
  The anvil  cracks
       D5
The hammer
G5          F5       D5
  Relentlessly comes down
G5          F5    D5
  A new pariah is born

[Chorus]
           A#5
Cut to the bone
Rob the grave
D5            A#5
  Unearth the stone
    A#5 F#5 D#5 D5
Lay to          waste
           A#5
Defile the tome
        D5
Rip the page
               A#5
Strip mine the vein
    A#5 F#5 D#5 D5
Lay to          waste

[Break]
F#5 F5 D5 F#5
F5 D5
                  F#5
Chastisement lays you down to sleep,
F5
  tucks you in with bloody kisses
D5 F#5                F5           A#5 F#5
   Gifts of nightmares  bittersweet

[Interlude]
D5 A#5 D5 A5 D5                 F#5 D5
   Type   A    negative shuts me    down
A#5  D5 A5    D5                    D#5
Catch   phrase  will be the death of
C5 D5
   me
A#5
Is
D5 A5  D5                    F#5 D5
   this  not what you came to    see?
A#5  D5 A5 D5             D#5 D5
What,   are  you not enter___tained?

[Break]
F#5 D5 D#5 C5 D5
F#5 D#5 C5

[Outro]
D5                                F#5
  Climb the walls 'til nails bleed
D5                            D#5 C5
  Rip the hair, tear the seams
D5
  Break the glass
             F#5
Head in hands
D5
  Bell tolls endlessly
       D#5 C5 D5
No end in     sight
