"some" of the lyrics with the chords -

Bm A G

I'll suck the flame to me

Bm A

I'll suck it in, I'm o.k. I should be

...verse again

Bm A G

I'll suck the flame to me

Bm A

I'll suck it in

G D A G D A G D A G

Some erotic feel, keeps coming on, it's so unreal, I come undone

Bm A G

then I look back (I find a frame already built)

Bm A G

when I look back (it's still waiting to be filled)

Bm A G

I find it had flickered for a minute and then it was gone

G D A G D A G

Some erotic feel, Keeps coming on, It's so unreal

D A G D A G D A G

I come undone, Some shady deal, Despite the black

D A G D A G

the light gets in, through every crack

...this is juts a 'taste' of the lyrics with the chords so you'd

understand the rhythm, I think it's enough cause it all just repeats

itself, and stef's part is like the bridge.
