[Intro]
|| G | C | G | F C ||
|| G | C | D | F ||

[Verse 1]
G               C           G       F C
Be careful and aware of the tricks
G              C             D       F
The twists and turns and the curves
G                   C            G     F C
The danger that the darkness can give
        G             C           D       F
And the way we always get what we deserve

[Chorus 1]
          G                       C
I’m gonna cut to the heart like a razor
G                    C
Red ribbons will fly high
G
Cut to the bone
C           D
Sunk like a stone
Em           F         G*   (* denotes same chord)
Drunk on the blood red sky

|| G* | C | G | F C ||
|| G | C | D | F ||

[Verse 2]
  G                     C            G      F C
A train has slipped and fell off the cliff
G              C         D    F
Swallowed by a monster below
  G                C            G     F C
A puff of smoke is all that was left
         G                    C          D     F
Like the ghosts of those that we used to know

[Chorus 2]
          G                       C
I’m gonna cut to the heart like a razor
G                    C
Red ribbons will fly high
G
Dropped to the ground
C                 D
Never should have found
Em             F         G   C  G
Underneath the blood red sky
F    C         G         C    G   F C
Underneath the blood red sky

[Bridge]
D                    Em           A
I will get you there, this I swear
                 C
I'll get you there

[Verse 3]
    G           C             G       F C
The fire to our torches still clinks
       G              C           D     F
To the shadows at the edge of our eyes
    G                     C      G     F C
Our footsteps through the forest sink
   G               C           D    F
To mute the nightingale’s lullaby

          G                       C
I’m gonna cut to the heart like a razor
G                    C
Red ribbons will fly high
G
Cut to the bone
C           D
Sunk like a stone
Em           F         G*   (* denotes same chord)
Drunk on the blood red sky

          G                       C
I’m gonna cut to the heart like a razor
G                    C
Red ribbons will fly high
G
Cut to the bone
C           D
Sunk like a stone
Em           F         G   C
Drunk on the blood red sky

          G                       C
I’m gonna cut to the heart like a razor
G                    C
Red ribbons will fly high
G
Cut to the bone
C           D
Sunk like a stone
Em          F       G           Em     G        C
Left on the ground, never to be found, anywhere around
                         G
Underneath the blood red sky
