[Intro]
[Em] [Em] [B9] [Em] [x2]
[Verse1]
[Em]I watch the work of [B9]my kin bold [Em]and boyful
[Em]Toying somewhere [B9]between love [Em]and abuse
[D]Calling to join them the [G]wretched and joyful
[Em]Shaking the wings of [B9]their [Em]terrible youths
[Verse2]
[Em]Freshly disowned in [B9]some frozen [Em]devotion
[Em]No more alone or [B9]myself could [Em]I be
[D]Lurched like a stray to the [G]arms that were open
No [Em]shortage of sordid, [B9]no protest [Em]from me
[Chorus]
With [Em]her sweetened breath, and [G]her tongue so mean
She's [D]the angel of small death and [Em]the codeine scene
With [Em]her straw-blonde hair, [G]her arms hard and lean
She's [D]the angel of small death and [Em]the codeine scene
[Verse3]
[Em]Feeling more human [B9]and hooked on [Em]her flesh, I
[Em]Lay my heart down with [B9]the rest at [Em]her feet
[D]Fresh from the fields, all [G]fetor and fertile
[Em]It's bloody and raw, but [B9]I swear it [Em]is sweet
[Chorus]
With [Em]her sweetened breath, and [G]her tongue so mean
She's [D]the angel of small death and [Em]the codeine scene
With [Em]her straw-blonde hair, [G]her arms hard and lean
She's [D]the angel of small death and [Em]the codeine scene

[Verse4]
[Em]Leashless confusion, [B9]I'll wander [Em]the concrete
[Em]Wonder if better [B9]now having [Em]survived
[D]Jarring of judgement and [G]reasons defeat
The sweet [Em]heat of her breath in [B9]my mouth [Em]I'm alive
[Chorus] (x2)
With [Em]her sweetened breath, and [G]her tongue so mean
She's [D]the angel of small death and [Em]the codeine scene
With [Em]her straw-blonde hair, [G]her arms hard and lean
She's [D]the angel of small death and [Em]the codeine scene
