(intro) G#m
B
There's a fragile tension
E B Eb Gm
That's keeping us going
B
It may not last forever
E B Eb
But oh, when it's flowing
Ebm Gm Eb
There's something magical in the air
(fill) C#m F#
Ebm Gm Eb
Something so tragic we have to care
(fill) C#m F# G#m
B
There's a strange obsession
E B Eb Gm
That's drawing us nearer
B
We don't understand it
E B Eb
It never gets clearer
Ebm Gm Eb
There's something mystical in our genes
(fill) C#m F#
Ebm Gm Eb
So simplistic it kicks and screams
(fill) C#m F#
Gm F#
Oh when we're teetering
E Eb
On the edge of collapse
C# B Bb G#m
Nothing can keep us down
B
There's a dizzying feeling
E B Eb Gm
That's keeping us flying
B
Through glittering gardens
E B Eb
Without even trying
Ebm Gm Eb
There's something radical in our hands
(fill) C#m F#
Ebm Gm Eb
Nothing logical to our plans

(Chorus)
(the Chorus chord progression is the same as the verse progression; the chords are played
distortion by sweeping up from the top string to the bottom string)

(synth/Guitar Duel Solo)
(this call/answer solo is pretty much the same as the verse fill. The only thing that
is the synth. The guitar just answers twice with this)
