[Intro] Am

Am
A modern concussion
      C
The room is on fire
          F
You're an upstanding model

Of a modern day Cain
      Dm
With impeccable style

                Am
But now you've done a little wrong
        C
And you need to be forgiven
        F                       Dm
By the vicar and the company you keep

[Pre-Chorus]

                Am
And then you conjure up a fiction
        Dm
To get the pretty girl to listen

[Chorus]

Am         C
This is the sin
       F            Dm                  Am
That I will confess to release myself
        C               F
From consequence
        Dm
And everyone can tell

( Am )

Am
The moral objection
                C
To something so profane
        F
But the deepest of convictions

Are the darkest positions

        Dm
Little remissions for the varicose vain

                Am
But now you've done a little wrong
        C
And you swear you didn't do it
        F                              Dm
But volition left you burdened with a curse

[Pre-Chorus]

                Am
And then you conjure up a fiction
        Dm
To get the pretty girl to listen

[Chorus]

Am         C
This is the sin
       F            Dm                  Am
That I will confess to release myself
        C               F
From consequence
        Dm
And everyone can tell

( Am )

[Chorus]

Am         C
This is the sin
       F            Dm                  Am
That I will confess to release myself
        C               F
From consequence
        Dm
And everyone can tell

[Chorus]

Am         C
This is the sin
       F            Dm                  Am
That I will confess to release myself
        C               F
From consequence
        Dm
And everyone can tell

( Am )

[Outro]

                       Am C F Dm
And everyone can tell
                       Am C F Dm
And everyone can tell

( Am  C  F  Dm  Am )
