Intro:    G   Em    Am    D 
G   Em   Am    D 

G                  Em 
Brighter Venus, brighter star 
Am                    D 
Brighter genius, brighter guitar 
G                  Em 
Brighter candle, brighter flame 
Am                           D 
Brighter scandal, brighter in fame 

G                           Em 
I stepped in for a little while, 
 Am             D 
wondered to the floor 
G                      Em 
I wonder off a little while 
Am                D 
expecting to be caught 

G                     Em 
Brighter goddess, brighter hate 
Am                            D                               
Brighten and bless curse nature and fate 
G                   Em 
Brighter criminal, I hope you escape 
Am                 D 
Brighter mineral, illuminate 

G               Em 
I stepped in for a little while, 
  Am               D  
And learned a host of sins 
G              Em 
I wonder off a little while 
Am              D 
'cause you can never win 


** 
B       A 
Her eyes moved to Thee 
B                A 
All Eyes aren't born free 
B                Am 
All eyes want to see 
B       Am       D   G   D 
Incinerate me, angel   

G   Em   Am   D    G   Em   Am   D  (** repeat)

Brighter Amber, brighter Mark 
          Am        D 
Brighter Catherine, brighter Clark 
  G                    Em          
Brighter Katie, brighter Joel 
Am                 D      
Brighter Gaby, fire aglow  

G                  Em 
I stopped in for a little while 
 Am         D 
And threw in the evidence  
G                   Em 
I wondered there for a little while 
Am                      D 
There's secrets in the wind

G                Em 
Brighter nitwit, brighter cask 
Am                D 
Brighter dimwit, brighter my ass 
G                     Em 
Brighter Sid Vicious, brighter night sky 
Am                  D 
Brighter housewife, I hope you all die 

G                   Em 
Brighter, brighter flame aglow 
Am                  D 
Brighter, brighter, you ought to know 
G           Em       A       D        B 
It burns, it burns, nitwit brighter
