F#m        G
Here, you focus
D        Bm        G
So I can see your faces
    F#m        B
The eyes are wrong
A           F#m          G       F#m
How will I know if it's working right?

F#m       G
Light confuses
D        Bm         G
The tiny isles of bruises
    F#m      B
The mangled lines
A         F#m      G
I see the signs of aging

    D
But if I try to feel at all
  Dsus4 
I am deceived
  Dsus4 
My mind's affected
    D
It's empty now
   D
As I lay down
  Dsus4 
I feel alright
   Dsus4 
My heart is racing

F#m       G
Turn the noise on
G
(The noise on)
D            Bm      G
I'd like to feed my poison
     G
(My poison)
  F#m     B
Assembly lines
A       F#m     G      F#m
Carry a velvet warning
F#m     G
To the yard
D                Bm      G
It's just like striking matches
    F#m     B
The polish lies

Chorus:
 B
But it's working in your blood
 B       G#m       E
(Working in your blood)
                           Em      F#
Which you know is not the same as love
 G                    D
Love is only in your mind
         Bm       G
(Is only in your mind)
              A
And not your heart
F#m       G
No, it's working

         F#
But it's working in your blood
 B       G#m       E
(Working in your blood)
                           Em      F#
Which you know is not the same as love
 G                    D
Love is only in your mind
         Bm       G
(Is only in your mind)
              A
And not your heart

 A
But it's working in your blood
 B       G#m       E
(Working in your blood)
                           Em      F#
Which you know is not the same as love
 G                    D
Love is only in your mind
      Bm       G
(Only in your mind)
              A
And not your heart
