Poor Isaac Chords

(ver. 1)
The Airborne Toxic Event
G#m    C#m

(muted)                     G#m
Oh and God, just leave that Abraham alone
           C#m
He wants a son, he wants a son
                  G#m
Everybody wants a home

           G#m
Though I'm not quite sure if poor Isaac would agree
             C#m
'My God,' he said, 'what did I do
                           G#m
to make you wanna watch me bleed?'

           G#m
And I feel sick tonight, I feel just like
The dancing flame on a funeral light
        C#m
And I'm not sure if I want you to save me

           G#m
And I'd be less uptight
if I knew the sight of blood
was just a weakness
    C#m
And not the whole reason
that you made me
                           G#m
Cause sometimes I think it is

G#m   C#m

       G#m
Oh and God, just go and leave me all alone
             C#m
I'm not your son, I'm not your son
               G#m
Everybody dies alone

         G#m
Was this world just not quite hard enough for you
             C#m
I guess like anyone you've got
                          G#m
Your own scores to settle too

           G#m
And I'm so p**sed tonight, I feel just like
The last remaining Canaanite
      C#m
And I don't think that I will be returning

           G#m
And if you wanna see the irony
And the savage price of piety
          C#m
There's a lot of us who are going to be burning
            G#m
How does it feel?


G#m   C#m 

        E
And the sorrow that I know
         B
when I'm alone, I can't express
          E                            B
All these darling angels singing in my ear
        E
And the comfort of their touch,
              B
it cuts right through this emptiness
         F#                                 G#m
And it's everything I want and everything I fear

                 C#m
But I don't fear God!

G#m   C#m
Hoooooooo      x2

     E
That child was my friend
          B
I spent a long time with his curse
      E                              B
I can feel him trembling beneath his plea
        E
I don't know if there is water
      B
All I know is there's this thirst
       F#
And it might be for the best
                                         G#m
Though I'm not quite sure if Isaac would agree
