God Deciding Chords

   
I thought I'd upload this as it is a fully class song, originally by Hot Water 
Music, but then done as a solo artist by Chuck Ragan. The bear man himself. It's 
pretty hard to recognise where the verses space, if at all, so I've just dissected them myself.

Intro: C#5 
Verse 1:
C#5                       Asus2
Transgressions are made 
E
while cowards convey with a demon's ear,
                           C#5
fixed and set to slay. 
                                Asus2                         E
While the statue awaits to be whittled away 
                                                                      C#5
with a mock of a slogan hiding filth with fear. 
                    Asus2              E        
Never to learn, only to burn...and be burned. 
C#5           
Branded straight through slate.
                             Aus2    
Clear as common day. 
E                                        C#5
What shall be the mark to be made? 

Chorus: 
         Asus2                                   B5
When we crush it all to burn it down
                                             C#5
without sight, without sound.
                                                                               Asus2
Not anything but a casualty forgotten in the ground. 
                                                  B5                   C#5                 
A simple shell, that's solemn still--without sight, without sound.

Interlude: C#5

Verse 2:
C#5                                                                 Asus2
Make a martyr, a pedestal with ribbons of slaughter. 
                           E
Feed the altar, stoke the fire it will take over. 
                                                                                      C#5
Ignore the cut... the skin with callus as well as interest. 
                              Asus2                        E
If all are reckless none is to profit, none is to win it. 
B5                                                                                          Asus2
So who will pay for all the years, all the lives, from either side? 
                                    E
All the tales, all the time of living blind playing "God Deciding?"
                            C#5        Asu2                                 E
And who will die, next in line , for the lie: justified
                                    C#5                       Asus2                         
For the rise, sitting high playing "God Deciding?"
 E                             C#5
Walk away from the rage and revenge? 
Asus2                                                 C#5               
Inhumane consequence comes in time playing "God Deciding." 
                                               Asus2                                       E
And who will fall in line to arrive out of sight and out of mind?

Outro: 
E
Out of mind?
E
Out of mind?
