Em                 Em7          A              Em
You see me now a veteran of a thousand psychic wars
Em                 Em7          A              Em
I've been living on the edge so long, where the winds of limbo roar
         A              Em           A              Em
And I'm young enough to look at, and far too old to see
         C               Em
All the scars are on the inside
A                                          B
I'm not sure that there's anything left of me

   Am                  Em        Am           Em             Am Em Am Em     
Don't let these shakes go on, it's time we had a break from it
     C                Em
It's time we had some leave
Figure 1
We've been living in the flames
Figure 1
We've been eating up our brains
Figure 2
Oh please, don't let these shakes go on.

Em                 Em7          A              Em
You ask me why I'm weary, why I can't speak to you
Em                 Em7          A              Em
You blame me for my silence, say it's time I changed and grew
         A              Em           A              Em
But the war's still going on, dear, and there's no end that I know
         C               Em
And I can't stand forever
A                                     B
I can't say if we're ever gonna be free

   Am                  Em        Am           Em             Am Em Am Em     
Don't let these shakes go on, it's time we had a break from it
     C                Em
It's time we had some leave
Figure 1
We've been living in the flames
Figure 1
We've been eating up our brains
Figure 2
Oh please, don't let these shakes go on.

Em                 Em7          A              Em
You see me now a veteran of a thousand psychic wars
Em                 Em7          A              Em
My energy is spent at last, and my armor is destroyed
         A              Em           A              Em
I have used up all my weapons, and I'm helpless and bereaved
         C               Em
Wounds are all I'm made of
A                                     B
Did I hear you say that this is victory?

   Am                  Em        Am           Em             Am Em Am Em     
Don't let these shakes go on, it's time we had a break from it
     C                Em
Send me to the rear
Figure 1
Where the tides of madness swell
Figure 1
And men sliding into hell
Figure 2
Oh please, don't let these shakes go on.
