[Intro]
C
[Chorus]
C
So Welcome to Heaven,
Am F
Just a state of dumb contentment
C
Sitting all alone in blackness floating on
Am F
A cognizant cloud of ash is all
C
We are in this bitter alternative
Am F
Where our spirit comes back it teaches lessons to those
C
who live on and on and on and on
Am F
In a second world, it's hell is all...
N.C. C
So welcome to heaven.
[Interlude]
C F
[Verse]
C
Slack jawed and simple angels staring off
F
Into the infinite
C
Into the white abyss
C
Wrapped up in memories of sin and stoned
F
Irreverence
C
How do they still uphold
[Pre-Chorus]
Am F C
this corrupt membership in a field of unworthy souls
Am F D E F G A A#
tell your God never sit I'll yield when he's told
[Chorus]
N.C. C
You're not welcome in heaven
Am F
In this state of dumb contentment
C
Where you're alone in blackness floating on
Am F
A cloud of ash you don't belong
C
At all in this bitter alternative
Am
Where all spirits kicked back
F
Teach truth to those
C
who live on and on and on and on
Am G
Not overjoyed you came along
[Bridge]
F C
With everyone's eyes rolling up
F G
Into the backs of their hollow skulls
F C
Try as we might we've tried to stop
G F G
but no one gets it makes no sense
[Verse]
C
Peel back green earth it covers up the door
F
Under our feet and soar
C
down to the underworld
C
he'll wait again in the same place he always is
F
wishing he never lived
C
wishing he'd die again
[Pre-Chorus]
Am F
He'll beg, never changing at all
C
been the same for the last million years
G
Let him bawl not the first time you've brought him to tears...
[Chorus]
N.C. C
So welcome to heaven
Am F
just a state of dumb contentment
C
Peeling back skull, an ear, an eye, a tongue
Am F
A cognizant cloud of ash among
C
Your vengeance cause here, yeah, it's all you've got
Am F
Just your spirit living on just to teach him about
C
your own loss... he caused it all
Am G
Your heaven's his hell and you're not gonna stall
[Outro]
F C
Eyes not rolling up
F G
Into the back of your vengeful skull
F C
just staring straight, deep, infinite
D E F G A A# D E F
and he doesn't try...to apologise
G A A# D E F
hasn't lost his mind
G A A# C
that's why he still cries
