I've got the perfect needle for you

I like to play this with octave chords moving up the neck,  
but power chords, open chords, or what ever you dig can also be used

The 3rd and 4th verse are the same except
the 4th verse has and extra line:

3rd verse
A                        D
          Surrender down comes everything
A                        D
          Breathes no more and falls to sleep 
A                        D
          Blind and helpless sick and dead
A                        A


4th verse
A                        D
          Treasure waits complete and there
A                        D
          With scattered needles everywhere
A                        D
          Thorn at the end of every road
A                        D
          Thorn at the end of every road
A                        A

Then the song goes into the chorus and the post 
chorus ascending part, call it a bridge if you like. 
The A holds on twice as long at the end of the ascending 
pattern also.
