[Intro]
G

[Verse 1]
G                
Over the Dead Sea
Cadd9              
Keeping you company
Em        Cadd9    Em           Am7
Thinking, I'm not afraid of you now
Em       Cadd9           
I'm not afraid of you now
G                    
Letting my eyes close
Cadd9                   
Shedding my soft clothes
Em        
Wind blows
Cadd9     Em           Am7  
Wind that howls like a hound
Em        Cadd9              
Wind that laughs like a clown

[Chorus]
Em         Cadd9
Mystery of lack
         Em               Cadd9
Stabbing stars through my back
Em        Am7       Cadd9
Forwards, beckon, rebound
Em        Am7       Cadd9
Forwards, beckon, rebound

[Verse 2]
G              
Virtual bedroom
Cadd9                
Rise like a full moon
Em      Cadd9         Em           Am7  
Show me pictures that hang in your house
Em            Cadd9             
Pictures that hang in your mouth
G                 
Candescent insects
Cadd9                
Crosses and fishnecks
Em     Cadd9      Em          Am7
I have nothing to pray to you now
Em         Cadd9          
Nothing to pray to you now

[Chorus]
Em         Cadd9
Mystery of lack
         Em               Cadd9
Stabbing stars through my back
Em        Am7       Cadd9
Forwards, beckon, rebound
Em        Am7       Cadd9
Forwards, beckon, rebound

[Verse 3]
G                      
Pulling your face close
Cadd9             
Wanting the inmost
Em     
Show me
Cadd9    Em           Am7
I'm not afraid of you now
Em       Cadd9           
I'm not afraid of you now
G                  
Villain and violent
Cadd9              
Infant and innocent
Em    Cadd9     Em         Am7
Baby, both arms cradle you now
Em        Cadd9         
Both arms cradle you now

[Chorus]
Em         Cadd9
Mystery of lack
         Em               Cadd9
Stabbing stars through my back
Em        Am7       Cadd9
Forwards, beckon, rebound
Em        Am7       Cadd9
Forwards, beckon, rebound
Em        Am7       Cadd9
Forwards, beckon, rebound
