Intro: E, G#m, E, G#m
E G#m
When the smaller picture's the same as the bigger picture, you know that you're fucked
E G#m
When you're trading paper cuts for splinters, you're out of luck
E G#m
Like sharks don't sleep and I don't take my eyes off you
E G#m
The architechure's shit and my cheeks are already and bruised
A G#m
And if you're trading paper cuts for splinters
C#m B E C#m
Sweet dreams, sweet cheeks, oh tomorrow, oh tomorrow, oh tomorrow
E G#m
All these mercy killings have got my conscience spilling over
E G#m
And the building's ornate but it's lacking soul and character
E G#m
We're burning five-story buildings, laying mantraps at the fire exits
E G#m
We're playing feedback over tannoid systems, you look desperate, you look pathetic

(I know that during the chorus Aleks sings the part above, and Gareth sings this:
A
And it hits as hard as a blow to the head
G#m
Or a smash to the skull, or a knee to your chest
C#m B
It hits as hard as a blow to the head
E
Or a smash to the skull, or a knee to your chest
A
And it hits as hard as a blow to the head
G#m
Or a smash to the skull, or a knee to your chest
C#m B E C#m
Sweet dreams, sweet cheeks, oh tomorrow, oh tomorrow, oh tomorrow)
