            INTRO:
 	Emaj7	 	Amaj7/E            Emaj7      Amaj7/E     
 	There is 	lambswool under my naked feet.	 
 	F#m6
 	The wool is soft and warm,
 	        C#
        gives 	off some kind of heat.
  C#m  Dmaj7/C# x4               
A sala	mander scurries into flame to be destroyed.
 	Dmaj7  D6   Dmaj7    D6         Amaj7/E                  Emaj7 Amaj7/E x2
 	Imaginary creatures are 	trapped in birth on celluloid.

 	F#m6
    The fleas cling to the golden fleece,
 	C#
 	Hoping they'll find peace.
 	C#m Dmaj7/C# x4
   Each thought and gesture are caught in celluloid.
        Dmaj7  D6   Dmaj7    D6
        Theres no hiding in my memory.
 	        D   Dmaj7 D Dmaj7
        Theres 	no room      to avoid.

VERSE:

D 	                Em	               D 
The crawlers cover the 	floor in the red ochre corridor.
 		        Em                                    D
For my second sight of 	people, they've more lifeblood than before.
 	          Em	                 D
They're moving in time to a heavy wooden door,
 	                  Em
Where the needle's eye is winking, closing in on the poor.


CHORUS:
 	    F#m7	                
 	The carpet crawlers heed their callers: 	
Asus4         A 	              G   A
        We've got to get in to get out    	
A                                     G  D/F#	
        We've got to get in to get out    	
 	      D            C       Em/B  D
        We've got to get in to get out.

 		           Em                          D
Verse   There's only one direction in the faces that I see;
 	                   Em                                  D 
        It's upward to the ceiling, where the chambers said to be.
 	                          Em                                 D
        Like the forest fight for sunlight, that takes root in every tree.
 	                          Em
        They are pulled up by the magnet, believing they're free.

(CHORUS)
 	D                          Em 
        Mild mannered supermen are held in kryptonite,
  	        D                                          Em
        And the wise and foolish virgins giggle with their bodies glowing bright.
 	D	                          Em
 	Through a door a harvest feast is lit by candlelight;
 		 D                          Em
        It's the bottom of a staircase that spirals out of sight.
(CHORUS)
        D                           Em
        The porcelain mannikin with shattered skin fears attack.
 	    D                                Em
        The eager pack lift up their pitchers, they carry all they lack.
 	    D                               Em
        The liquid has congealed, which has seeped out through the crack,
 	        D                                 Em
        And the tickler takes his stickle back.

(CHORUS)
OUTRO (x4): 	D	Em
(CHORUS)
FADING CHORUS Repeat
D                    Em
