This was tabbed by Mr. Wings over on indieguitartabs, so 95% of the credit goes to him!
I just tried my hand at the last section that was missing from his, (after the "Verse 6"),
and changed a couple lyrics and chords to what I thought was more correct.


Capo 5

C (x4)

Verse 1:
C Em
I----I pushed off the pier
Am
Infinity ran cold
D
And filled up my ears
G
There's the weapon you hold;
F
There's the thing that you hold it to
C
And the thing you hold dear.

Verse 2:
C Em
Oh the speed of a year
Am
It runs the wood dry
D
And water unclear
G
There's the thing you hold high;
F
And then there's the thing that you hold it to
C
And the thing you hold dear.

Verse 3:
C Em Am D
I will be an enemy to men seen in the light!
G
Do you think it's all right?
F
Yes I think it's all right!

It's all right!

Verse 4:
Bb
If you make the waves
F
The sun makes the rays
Bb
The speed of the Light
F
Can be trusted to prey
Bb
To prey on the fools
F
That pushed off your pier
Bb F
The whirling of pools runs clear
C
Da-da-da-da-da-dum
Am
Da-da-da-dum
F
Da-da-da-dum


Verse 5:
C
So I'll be out till the shimmering dies
Em
I said I'll be out till the shimmering dies
Am
It's the wringing out the predatory nature of the sky
D
And the ringing sound it makes when it's burning out your eyes
G F
It's all right. IT IS ALL RIGHT!
C
It's the speed of the light
Em
It's the speed of a year
Am
It's the weapon you hold,
D
And the thing you hold dear.
G
OH my dear, oh my dear
F
It's infinity's time to shine out here

Verse 6:
Bb
If you make the waves
F
The sun makes the rays
Bb
The speed of the Light
F
Can be trusted to prey
Bb
To prey on the fools
F
That pushed off your pier
Bb F
The whirling of pools runs clear
Gm
Da-da-da-dum
Dm
Da-da-da-dum
Gm
Da-da-da-dum
Dm
Da-da-dum
Bb F
The rocking of boats and the making of mirrors
Bb F
The whirling of pools running clear.
