INTRO:  G  Am7  G  Am7  G  Am7  G  Am7


    C
I'm closer to the golden dawn 
                                 G        
Immersed in Crowley's uniform of imagery
    C
I'm living in a silent film
                                       G
Portraying Himmler's sacred realm of dream reality
    Eb 
I'm frightened by the total goal
F
Drawing to the ragged hole
      G             Em        C
And I ain't got the power any more
                             G    Am7   A
no I ain't got the power any more


        D
I'm the twisted name on Garbo's eyes
                                    A       
Living proof of Churchills lies I'm destiny
    D
I'm torn between the light and dark
                                     A        
Where others see their target divine symmetry
F
Should I kiss the vipers fang
   G
Or herald loud the death of man?
    A              F#m             D
I'm sinking in the quicksand of my thoughts
                              A    
And I ain't got the power any more


CHORUS:
A         E7         F#m
Don't believe in yourself
         G         E
Don't deceive with belief
          Em                 Bm7
Knowledge comes with deaths release
   F#m   A
Ah ah ah ah
   F#m   E7 
Ah ah ah ah ah


    D
I'm not a prophet or a stoneage man
                                              A
Just a mortal with potential of a superman I'm living on
    D
I'm tethered to the logic of homo sapien
                                               A
Can't take my eyes from the great salvation of bullshit faith
     F
If I don't explain what you ought to know 
        G
You can tell me all about it in the next bardot
    A              F#m             D
I'm sinking in the quicksand of my thoughts
                              A    
And I ain't got the power any more


CHORUS x2:
A         E7         F#m
Don't believe in yourself
          G        E
Don't deceive with belief
          Em                 Bm7
Knowledge comes with deaths release
   F#m   A
Ah ah ah ah
   F#m   E7 
Ah ah ah ah ah
