Marduk T-Shirt Men's Room Incident

Capo 1

High e string gets muted for the D most of the time too

Em Em  Em-F#m-G  Bm
Em Em  Em-F#m-G  B

B                      A
Slumped up against the sink
G                     D
Hair plastered to her cheeks
B               A
Marduk t-shirt sticking to her skin
G                       D         A
Refugee from a disco in old east Berlin

G          D        G         D    A
weightless formless blameless nameless

B                    A
Stray syllables were gurgling
G                        D
From her throat one at a time
B                   A
Face hidden from my view
G              D             A
I let myself imagine she was you
     G           D         G          D    A
Only weightless, formless, blameless, nameless

Em                   G
And when I washed my hands
D               G                     A
I ran the water hotter than I could stand

B                A
Half rising to a crouch
G                        D
Sinking back down to the floor
B                   A
In your walking keep your head low
G               D               A
Try to leave no traces when you go
     G           D         G          D     A
Stay weightless, formless, blameless, nameless

Em  G  Bm  x4

* I believe the Intro to be | Em | F#m | Bm | Bm | x2, not what is written here. -Josh
