Bm A 

D            Bm 
We've become the outer order 
G              A         Asus4             
Live our lives along the border 
D                  Bm 
Get up in ease and face our other 
F#m              Em                Asus4 
To name the sign you've been born under 

Bm 
I was bitten by a man 
Bm 
Trespassing in a psychic state 
Bm 
What well-healed boy 
Bm 
What simple man 
Bm                   Em        F#m 
Left such a long and living wake 


G                 D 
I will not sing a hateful song 
G                    D 
Though it's in me to sing 
G                   D 
I know to drink the blood is wrong 
Em              G 
And undue error brings

Bm A 

D              Bm 
Born to proud, self-conscious people 
G           A  Asus4     
Living free of consequence 
D                          Bm 
Speak strange words louder than a witness 
F#m               Em      Asus4 
And damn the dead in self-defense 


Bm 
But I was also born and raised 
Bm 
To always speak and listen clear 
Bm 
To know the last sound that I make 
Bm 
Could be the last sound that I hear 


G                 D 
I will not sing a hateful song 
G                    D 
Though it's in me to sing 
G                   D 
I know to drink the blood is wrong 
Em              G 
And undue error brings
