NB: This song has a few funny sounding chords, but is very easy to play. Just be
sure to look at the chords I've put up in regards to how to play them as opposed
to the diagrams that pop up when you scroll over their names.
Without trying to sound like a jerk, this is hopefully much more accurate and
complete version of the song than the one currently available.

Verse
Am(add9)
Dark night, it's a dark night.
G6 Dm
And you can feel it, out with the big cats.
And there's a jaw trap, and there's a razor net.
And it's a dark night,
so paint your necks red,
so we can see you.
Vastness, there's a vastness,
and it looks empty,
but it's really full up to the brim.
And you can taste it,
like a battery on your tongue,
electricity passing particle, to particle, to particle.
Chorus
F
And I’m gonna need some proof,
Am G
I'm gonna need some proof,
Dm
so set your traps right before I lay my money out for you.
Verse
Decision or indecision,
is it safer to stay in the light where I can see them?
But there was nothing there, but you could feel the hum
And it could core you like an apple kid, or burn you 'til you turn to dust
Chorus
(play arpeggios for the bridge. When it reaches the A chord, it strums through A7, then A)
Bridge
E5 C5
Buzz saw in the ears for days
A5 F5
And there's only so much a man can take
D Bb5 A
before crack, crack, crack, cracking in.
Verse
Car ride, we'll take a car ride, out to the country, to see the goldmines
See where that hill ends?
That's where it all began, and it was teeming then,
now it's a fucking wasteland, and it's such a waste man.
Chorus
(Finish with bridge, then Aadd9)
