Mother Superior

Katzenjammer

Intro: Am

Am
In the clockwork, in the clockwork,
                 Dm
time is never at ease
     E
A frantic sensation is hammering 
              Am
nails in your spine
 C
Multiple fractions and 
  A                      Dm
muscle contractions will tear
               Am                   B
your mind into shreds, cutting your threads 
                      E
Do you regret you were born?

Ref.:
Am
Take my hands into yours, 
                    Dm Dm7 Hm7
dance my senses away
        G7         C
Take my hands into yours,
Ab  Am    F             E     Am
before mother superior's home 

Monsieur, monsieur you look like 
the saint in my dreams
Igniting the flame and carving 
my name next to yours
This urban decline is 
leaving its sign round my neck
Pulling the noose, tells me I'll lose
There's nothing to save 

Ref.

I'm sober, I'm sober, but I wish I was not
A gentle diversion or 
a touch of divine I could use
The curtains are closed, 
but I still feel exposed to the world
Wishing away somewhere astray
Are you still listening?

Ref.
