Intro - G D G D G D Em C G D D7

G       D           Em
All the lengthening hours in the refinery

C               D
Belching fire into the sky

          G    D   Em
We do our best vampire routines

      C              D7
As we suck the dying hours dry

Am                       G D G D
The night is lovely as a rose

   C
If I see sunlight hit you

     D
I am sure that we'll both decompose

G D G D G D Em C G D D7

G       D      Em
All the fitful sleep and the fire engines

C               D
That I dream of when I dream

     G         D         Em
Some day we'll both wake up for good

C               D7
I will try hard not to scream

Am                              G D G D
The evening wind will shake the blinds

       C
You're stirring from your slumber

          D
We've got something hateful on our minds

   G    D    Em
Oh sing sing sing

        C            D
For the dying of the day

G            D                Em
Sing for the flames that will rip through here

        C                     D7
And the smoke that will carry us away

    G            D            Em
And sing for the damage we've done

        C                       D
And the worse things that we'll do

G         D            Em
Open your mouth up and sing for me now

    C               D
And I will sing for you
