[D] [G#] [D] There it was, just like old faithful, the eternal mountain of [G#] [E] filth.
[B] [G]
[E] [G]
[D]
[A] I took a walk straight out of [D] town, putting it [E] up and put my gun for pleasure.
[C] [A] I was alone, I looked [D] around, I heard a [E] voice so I buckled up for safety.
[C] [A] I found myself there on the [D] ground, put my gun [E] down, it showed my own reflection,
[G]
[D] the eternal mountain of filth.
[A] I tried to run, I couldn't [D] move, frozen [E] stiff by the thoughts of men that came.
[G] [A] Out of my head, the bomb [D] shot from the inner [E] serum that I couldn't put a stop to.
[G] [A] It was me, myself [D] and I, locked in a [E] struggle, the talking that belonged [Cm] me.
[C] I had a hunger [G] to make me [C] do things, I had a hunger to make me say things,
I had [G] a hunger to make [F] me want [C] things, I'm just [D] a victim of filth,
eternal mountain of filth, and now I'll [E] be safe [F#] from [G] the power of,
from [E] the reach of, [F#] from the [G] appeal of, eternal [D] mountain of filth,
mountain of filth, eternal [C] mountain of filth.
I had [G] a hunger to make [Am] me do things, I had [G] a hunger to make me say things,
I had a hunger [D] to make [C] me want things, I'm just [D] a victim of filth,
eternal mountain of filth, and now I'll [E] be safe [C#] from [G] the power of,
from [E] the reach of, from the [G] appeal of, eternal [D] mountain of filth,
mountain of filth, eternal [C] mountain of filth.
I had [G] a hunger to make [Dm] me do [G] things, I had a hunger to make me say [C] things,
I had [A] a hunger to make [C] me want things, I'm just [D] a victim of filth,
mountain of filth, [C] eternal mountain of filth,
I had [G] a hunger to make [Am] me do things, I had [G] a hunger to make [A] me say things,
[G] I had a hunger to make [F] me want [C] things, I'm just [D] a victim of filth,
mountain of filth, [G] eternal mountain of filth,
I got a hunger to make [F] me do [E] things
I got a hunger to make [C] me say things
I got a hunger to make me want things
I'm just [D] a victim of guilt
Hey!
