If you don’t know how to strum it you can look it up in this vid. The only thing I did
putting the chords and lyrics together. The final bit of the song is missing so if you
any idea of how it might go, just put in the reactions. I also couldn’t make out the
You can see how it’s played in the youtube vid: if you have any ideas, just put them in

Part 1:
A D C#m
Metanoia, reshaping the world
Cm
It can teach you
D# D
And reprogram you
C#m D
It can show you the flood
E A
That's trapped inside
(repeat chords of part 1 3x)
This one's alive
The tail is breathing
And she's listening
Kill the serpent
Divide, disperse and grow
Into an oak
A silver lining on a black scale
Wicked hunter on three hooves he still rode
But where is the fourth?
You can climb there
To your lofty perch
C#m D E A
It can teach you the fairytale of hurt
Break:
A – Bm - G# - F# - C#
Part 2:
C# G#
Mystic referee, don't look on me with scorn
C# G#
I'm a child, I'm a lover being born
D#
Satchidananda
C# (riff)
Disregard the path I'm on
[ Tab from: https://www.guitartabs.cc/tabs/m/mgmt/metanoia_crd_ver_2.html ]
(repeat chords of part 2)
You can justify the action, should you bless
My ambition and my indecisiveness
Satchidananda
Let me know that you exist
B F#
Watch me tremble as I'm answering the phone
B F# F
I am separate from everything you know
F# G#
(repeat chords earlier in part 2)
Mystic referee I promise to return
Once I've given up and lessons have been learned
Satchidananda
You can watch my fire burn
Part 3: No chords
We were talkin' junk right,
Just before the show
This wild-eyed kid came up to the fence
He took one look at us, and he said:
A
"Help me,
C
Drummer,
A
Ticket,
C
Yeah!"
A
We didn't play his favorite song,
A G
Now he'll never come to another show
(repeat this sentence until fade in of part 4)
Part 4:
Section four:
repeat these chords 7 times: A C G F#m F
Hospitals and woods confirm
Red in the eyes of everyone
Parasites and lovers scrape the meat from bones
Turned into jade and tiger's eye
Save me some dark hair over a face like hers
She'll help the rain come to a pour
Bathroom floor of stone and tiles broke in two
Warm where they touch her porcelain
Timid skin I'm careful to untie this road
Wrapped in a knot indifferent
Lion's foot unearthing all the things i've seen
But never truly understood
Rotten wood from oceans that were never green
Crumbles beneath the canopy
Secretly
F# G#
Let's pretend we never touched the sugar
C# F# F# Fm <-- these last F# and F chords are played high on the fretboard.
