Age Of Reptiles
So how the chords on the clean guitar are
setup below. for the chorus just play it
power chords with overdrive
CHORDS
Bm x24430
G 355400
E 022100
F# 244300
Bm
I am made of parts that freeze and ligaments that atrophy
G
Though they look they'll never see
They don't know something's wrong with me
E
And just as well, I'll never tell what's underneath the scales
F#
I've worn to thin to honor you, my every effort fails
Bm
Bury me with Israel and cover up my tracks
G
Leave not a trace of what I was, I'm never coming back
E
And if you're mercy falls upon he whose blood is cold
F#
Unearth me with your hands of love and never break your hold
B5 G5
The world is full of ones like me, who need to see the truth
E5 F#5
But the truth is never truth indeed, the truth is only you
Bm
Jesus bless the crocodiles, forgive the cobras and all the snakes
G
Open up your arms to carry all of our mistakes
E
Suck the venom from every bite and vomit every drop
F#
Some of us may bite your hand but some of us will not
Bm
And every knee will bow before you, each forked tongue confess
G
My selfishness will rot in me and I will seek your rest
E
Still some lizards flee from you, ashamed of all they've been
F#
So Jesus take myself from me, never bring it back again
B5 G5
The world is full of ones like me, who need to see the truth
E5 F#5
But the truth is never truth indeed, the truth is only you
B5 G5
The world will soon become extinct, the age will pass away
E5 F#5
And all will know that you are God, hallowed be your name

E F#
Jesus bless the crocodiles, forgive the cobras and all the snakes
Open up your arms to carry all of our mistakes
Forgive the basilisk, forgive the moccasins and adders too
Have mercy on each alligator that never lived for you
I myself hatched from an egg, no white light from above
Just another ancient serpent that never earned your love
But still you find me underneath the rocks and in the ground
I cowered there just short of air and never made a sound
It's true that I'm in love with you, and even in my shame
You wipe away the imperfections and take away the pain
You wrap your loving arms around this wretched thing called me
Your love is all I'll ever need, your love has set me free
play the chorus during "The truth is only you (etc)",
but intersperse the passing notes of the bridge
when the heavy overdriven guitar isn't playing
OUTRO
