Tom: Em
C Em
I said I don't mind, but you've touched a nerve
C Em
The way you frame it, well, I got all I deserved
C Em
Transgress imitation, machination tears
C Em
That bring a little rust to slow the gears
[Interlude]
C Em (x2)
[Verse 2]
C Em
Breathe deep and comfort the disturbed
C Em
Allies cause you both disrupt the herd
C Em
In the cave you fear what would you find?
C Em Em/F#
Begin to think and soon you're undermined
[Pre-Chorus]
G D Bm
We played our hands together
Em Bm A
You lose me in your blood chemistry
G D Bm
Too rare to water down now
C Bm D
So we'd better try to match her speed
[Chorus]
C B5
Toast to the red queen and all she has seen
Em D
Is it time to drink at your table?
C B5 Em
We can only wait and watch for so long
C B5
Toast to our red queen, all those who have been
Em D
Sidelined, a lifetime's conviction unstable
C B5 Em
Where you fall is not where you belong
[Verse 2]
C Em
Unify behind false enemies
C Em
Arms race in hive mentalities
C Em
Down other lines we would have been the same
C Em Em/F#
More than the ice that wears this mask of flame
[Pre-Chorus]
G D Bm
Stay and reflect about them
Em Bm A
Beauty fades but still my charm deceives
G D5 G5 Bm
This night is shared and so we use each other
C Bm D
Cause misery loves company
[Chorus]
C B5
Toast to the red queen and all she has seen
Em D
Is it time to drink at your table?
C B5 Em
We can only wait and watch for so long
C B5
Toast to our red queen, all those who have been
Em D
Sidelined, a lifetime's conviction unstable
C D
Where you fall is not where you belong
DAnd so it goes again
[Outro]
Em C D
A wasted day to vie for my affection
DYou're just another one
Em C D
You gravitate to my defection
D
Soon you'll come undone
Em Bm
Spiny bottle blacks and blondes
C Am B
Can't fake a smile so they draw it on
[Solo Outro]
