Crumble to dust
G C Am
It is all of these things and more
Em

E .....
Independence
Is still important for us though (we realise)
It's easy to make
The stupid mistake
Of letting go (do you know what I mean)
My weaknesses
You know each and every one (it frightens me)
But I need to drink
More than you seem to think
Before I'm anyone's
And you know......
It's a question of lust
It's a question of trust
It's a question of not letting
What we've built up
Crumble to dust
It is all of these things and more
That keep us together
A
Kiss me goodbye
B
When I'm on my own
A
But you know that I'd
B
Rather be home
A
It's a question of lust
B
It's a question of trust
G#m
It's a question of not letting

It's a question of not letting
What we've built up
Crumble to dust
It is all of these things and more
That keep us together

F
It should be better with you
It's just a question of time

To the fire within

And she stands there over me
And waits to encompass me
I lay here helplessly
But oh what can you do
When she's dressed in black
Dressed in black again

ENJOY THE SILENCE - Violator
Words like violence
Break the silence
Come crashing in
Into my little world
Painful to me
Pierce right through me
Can't you understand
Oh my little girl
All I ever wanted
All I ever needed
Is here in my arms
Words are very unnecessary
They can only do harm
Vows are spoken
To be broken
Feelings are intense
Words are trivial
Pleasures remain
So does the pain
Words are meaningless
And forgettable
All I ever wanted
All I ever needed
Is here in my arms
Words are very unnecessary
They can only do harm
Enjoy the silence

I would tell you about the things

Morality would frown upon
Decency look down upon
The scapegoat fate's made of me
But I promise you, my judge and jurors
My intentions couldn't have been purer
My case is easy to see
I'm not looking for a clearer conscience
Peace of mind after what I've been through
And before we talk of repentance
Try walking in my shoes
Try walking in my shoes
You'll stumble in my footsteps
Keep the same appointments I kept
If you try walking in my shoes
If you try walking in my shoes
Try walking in my shoes
[Dm A7+ Bb Gm Bb C]
Now I'm not looking for absolution
Forgiveness for the things I do
But before you come to any conclusions
Try walking in my shoes
Try walking in my shoes
You'll stumble in my footsteps
Keep the same appointments I kept
If you try walking in my shoes
Now I'm not looking for absolution
Forgiveness for the things I do
But before you come to any conclusions
Try walking in my shoes
Try walking in my shoes
You'll stumble in my footsteps
Keep the same appointments I kept
If you try walking in my shoes
Try walking in my shoes
If you try walking in my shoes
Try walking in my shoes

Judas - Songs of Faith and Devotion
Is simplicity [C]best
Or simply the [G]easiest
The narrowest [C]path
Is always the [G]holiest
So walk on bare[F]foot for me
Suffer some [Am]misery
If you want my [C]love
If you want my [F]love [E]
Man will sur[C]vive
The harshest con[G]ditions
And stay a[C]live
Through difficult de[G]cisions
So make up your [F]mind for me
Walk the [Am]line for me
If you want my [C]love
If you want my [F]love [E] [G]
[Dm]Idle [E]talk
An[Am]d hollow promises
[Dm]Cheating [E]Judases
[Am]Doubting Thomases
[Dm]Don't just stand there and [G]shout it
Do something a[C]bout it [G]
You can fulfil
Your wildest ambitions
And I'm sure you will
Lose your inhibitions
So open yourself for me
Risk your health for me
If you want my love
If you want my love
If you want my love
If you want my love

Condemnation

Tried
F
Here on the stand
With the book in my hand
G
And truth on my side
C
Accusations
E E7
Lies
F
Hand me my sentence
I'll show no repentance
G
I'll suffer with pride
[2]
F
If for honesty
Am E
You want apologies
C
I don't sympathize
F
If for kindness
Am E
You substitute blindness
C F C // F C
Please open your eyes
[1]
Condemnation
Why
Because my duty
Was always to beauty
And that was my crime
[1]
Feel elation
High
To know I can trust this
Fix of injustice
Time after time
[2]
If you see purity
As immaturity
Well it's no surprise
If for kindness
You substitute blindness
Please open your eyes

Song: "Barrel of a gun"
(Written by Martin L Gore)
Em
Do you mean this horny creep
Set upon weary feet
Who looks in need of sleep
C (Em|C)
That doesn't come
Em
This twisted, tortured mess
This bed of sinfullness
That longing for some rest
C (Em|C)
And feeling numb
G Em
What do you expect to be
G Em
What is it you want
G C
Whatever you've planned for me
F C Bm
I'm not the one
(Em|C)
Em
A vicious appetite
Visits me each night
And won't be satisfied
C
Won't be denied
Em
An unbearable pain
A beating in my brain
That leaves the mark of Cain
C
Right here inside
(Em|C)
G Em
What am I suppose to do
G Em
When everything that I've done
G C
Is leading me to conclude
F C Bm
I'm not the one
Em C G
Whatever I've done
F C Bm
I've been staring down the barrel of a gun
G Em
Is there something you need from me
G Em
Are you having your fun
G C
I never agreed to be
F C Bm
Your holy one
Em C G
Whatever I've done
F C Bm
I've been staring down the barrel of a gun
Em

- During the intro Martin plays: 4* fig(1)
- During the first and second verse he plays:
4*fig(1), 1*fig(2), 1*fig(1), 2*fig(3), 2*fig(2)
-During the break Martin plays: 4*fig(4)
-During the the Burden he plays fig(5) and fig(6)
-During the verse 3 he plays the same plan as in the
1 and 2 verse but just the end of this plan.

IN YOUR ROOM(Zephyr mix)
------------
Verse 1 :
-------
In your room
Where time stands still
Or moves at your will
Will you let the morning come soon
Or will you leave me lying here
In your favourite darkness
Your favourite half-light
Your favourite consciousness
Your favourite slave
Break
-----
Verse 2 :
-------
In your room
Where souls disappear
Only you exist here
Will you lead me to your armchair
Or leave me lying here
Your favourite innocence
Your favourite prize
Your favourite smile
Your favourite slave
Burden :
------
I'm hanging on your words
living on your breath
feeling with your skin
Will I always be here
Verse 3 :
-------
In your room
Your burning eyes
Cause flames to arise
Will you let the fire die down soon
Or will I always be here
Your favourite passion
Your favourite game
Your favourite mirror
Your favourite slave
Burden :
------
I'm hanging on your words
living on your breath
feeling with your skin
Will I always be here

Lyrics/Chords
-------------
Bm
Walk with me, open your sensitive mouth, and talk to me
Hold out your delicate hands, and feel me
Couldn't make any plans, to conceal me
Em
Open your sensitive mouth, hold out your delicate hands
Bm
With such a sensitive mouth, I'm easy to see through
A G Bm
When I come up, when I rush, I rush for you
[Following verse/chorus as above]
Cry for you, seen the tears, roll down from my eyes for you
Heard my truth, Distorting to lies for you
Watched my love, Becoming a prize for you
Seen the tears in my eyes, Heard my truth turn to lies
Seen the tears in my eyes, I'm not proud of what I do
When I come up, When I rush, I rush for you
Em
I come up to meet you, Up there somewhere
When I rush to greet you, My soul is bared
Bm
Gave more for you, Dropped my crutches
And crawled on the floor for you
Went looking behind every door for you
And because of the things, That I saw for you
Em Bm A G Bm
I spiritually grew, when I come up, when I rush, I rush for you
A G Bm
when I come up, when I rush, I rush for you
[Repeat to fade]
