| E                    A            E        A         E      A  E   A
 We work through the rituals and cover our poisonous tracks
 E            A          E           A            E    A     E  A
 Making good use of weaknesses, horoscopes, rumours and facts
 Inspired by the needles and pins and the pains in the heart
 With no control over the chemistry that brings us then tears us apart
 A             A                 C#m
 Now we're as hard, as hard as nails
 C#m                            A           E
 Laugh at the butterfly that's just been impaled
 E              A           B                     A
 We're always running and don't know what we're running from
 A              B        C#m
 we're always sweating bricks
 E              A           B             A
 The only time the world makes sense to us is when we come
 A          C#m      A         C#m     A         C#m     B
 Love is a burning, Love is a burningLove is a burning question
 B             E     E    A     E   A
 on the tip of your tongue, baby baby
 
 I'll endlessly make you and endlessly become remade
 I'll endlessly search for your heart with a carnal switchblade,
 As we thrash in the heat in an effort to beat up the world
 Then we loose our identities replace them with diamonds and pearls
 Don't be as hard as hard as nails
 you might be born to win and then your heart fails
 get on my wavelength understand my driving force
 it's sin and sin alone
 I wouldn't lie to you unless I had to of course
 Love is a burning, Love is a burningLove is a burning question
 don't answer no
 A               C#m         A         C#m
 Don't make me take a look just let me off the hook
 A               C#m                   A               E
 I've seen the future of rock and it sucks, yeah, it sucks
 
 I've used you you're bleeding I know but don't be afraid
 it's only a wound only a wound from a carnal switchblade
 We're always running and don't know what we're running from
 we're always so convinced
 But the more we run the more it just slips through our fingertips
 
 LAST CHORUS
 Love is a burning, Love is a burningLove is a burning question
 on our lips baby baby
 
 (repeat last chorus and then fade "on our lips")
