Pull at my heart and beg me to move,

I will be a train, you will be a stow away,

Creeping down below my steaming locomotive.

              Em     C       C7        C7
And while we pour through a series of tunnels,

      Em   C  C7      C7
I'll pour my boiling water

      Em   C   C7   C7             G
And scald raw every inch of your skin.

[this part is also fingerpicked, can't be bothered to tab exactly]

             B
And what a spectacle,

    C             Em            C     G
To see you all unraveled and exposed.

          B
Well you got too close,

  C           Em               C
those hangers-on were bound to burn.
       Cm                     E             C         G    Gaddb3
It was only your turn, I warned you, I said, "Who goes there?"

Em   C         G     Gaddb3
    Who goes there?

Em C Gaddb3

(Intro)

[normal chords]

              G
I will be a star, a very bright and shining star,

                 C                                G
and I'll have a neutral charge and packed packed particles.

Em  C                 C7
So whenever where you are,

Em             C                   C7
Unless you're fast as hell and you move with me,

Em             C                 C7                                G
You'll see a spectral shift the likes of which that you have never seen.

             B
And what a spectacle,

    C             Em       G          C    G
To see me folding in on myself, I implode.

          B
Well you got too close,

C              Em        G            C
That field of force, of course you'll explode.

             Cm             Em             C        G
You will explode, I warned you, I said, "Who goes there?"

Em  C   G (many times)

End with: Em   C   C7
