Sleep Token - Take Me Back To Eden

[Intro]
G#m
F#

[Verse 1]
G#m
I dream in phosphorescence
G#m
Bleed through spaces
G#m F#
See you drifting past the fog
F# F#sus
But no one told you where to go
G#m
We dive through crystal waters
G#m
Perfect oceans
G#m F#
But no one told me not to breathe
F# F#sus
And now the weightlessness recedes

[Chorus]
G#m
My, my, those eyes like fire
G#m
I’m a winged insect, you’re a funeral pyre
G#m
Come now, bite through these wires
G#m
I’m a waking hell and thе gods grow tired
F#
Reset my patiеnt violence along both lines of a pathway higher
E B/D# C#m
Grow back your sharpest teeth, you know my desire

[Refrain]
E
I will travel far beyond the path of reason
F#
Take me back to Eden
F#
Take me back to Eden
G#m C#m B C#m F#/A# B
Take me back to E – den

G#m B C#m F#/A# A5 G#m

[Verse 2]
D#m
Well, yeah, I spit blood when I wake up
D#m
Sink porcelain stained, choking up brain matter and make-up
D#m F# Bmaj7
Just two days since the mainframe went down and I’m still messed up
Bmaj7
Room feels like a meat freezer
Bmaj7
I dangle in like cold cuts
Bmaj7 D#m
Missed calls, answer phones from people I just don’t trust
D#m
Mirror talk, fake love
D#m C# F#
But I’ll take a pound of your flesh ‘fore you take a piece of my paystub
Bmaj7
White roses, black doves
Bmaj7
Godmother, rise up
Bmaj7 G#m
I need you to see me for what I have become

[Chorus]
D#m
My, my, those eyes like fire
D#m F#
I’m a winged insect, you’re a funeral pyre
B
Come now, bite through these wires
B
I’m a waking hell and the gods grow tired
G#m F#
Reset my patient violence along both lines of a pathway higher
C#/G# B G#m
Grow back your sharpest teeth, you know my desire

F#maj7 Emaj7 G#m7
D#m7 Emaj7 F7sus

[Verse 3]
F7sus C#
I guess it goes to show, does it not?
C# A#m7
That we’ve no idea what we’ve got
A#m7 Fm
Until we lose it (Until we lose it, until we lose it)
Fm D#7 C# A#m7
And no amount of love will keep it around
A#m7 Fm
If we don’t choose it (Choose it)
Fm D#7 C# A#m7
And I don’t know what’s got its teeth in me
A#m7 Fm
But I’m about to bite back in anger
Fm D#7 C#
No amount of self-sought fury
C# A#m7 Fm
Will bring back the glory of innocence

C#

[Chorus]
Fm
My, my, those eyes like fire
Fm G#
I’m a winged insect, you’re a funeral pyre
C#
Come now, bite through these wires
C#
I’m a waking hell and the gods grow tired
A#m D#
Reset my patient violence along both lines of a pathway higher
C# G# A#m
Grow back your sharpest teeth, you know my desire

Fm7
(When we were made)
D#/G
(I know)
G#
(It was no accident)
A#m
(You know my desire)
C# D#
(We were tangled up like branches in a flood)

[Refrain]
C#5
I have traveled far beyond the path of reason
C#5
Take me back to Eden
C#5
Take me back to Eden
