[Verse 1]
               GbM7
For we're living
                   F7
In a safety zone
               GbM7                    F7
Don't be holding back from me
         GbM7                      F7
We're living from hour to hour down here
               GbM7                F7
And we'll take it when we can

[Verse 2]
         GbM7                       F7
It's a kind of living which recognises
        GbM7                          F7
The death of the odourless man
           GbM7                                      F7
When nothing is vanity nothing's too slow
               GbM7            F7
It's not Eden but it's no sham

GbM7 F7 GbM7 F7

[Chorus]
        Gb            F7
There is no hell
        Gb            F7
There is no shame
        Gb
There is no hell
      F7
Like an old hell
        Gb           F7
There is no hell
              AbM7           EbM7/G
And it's lights up, boys
AbM7             Fm7
Lights up boys

GbM7 F7 GbM7 F7

[Verse 3]
Ebm7                         F7
Explosion falls upon deaf ears
                  GbM7                         F7
While we're swimming in a sea of sham
  GbM7                           F7
Living in the shadow of vanity
                   GbM7                      F7
A complex fashion for a simple man

[Chorus]
               Gb          F7
And there is no hell
               Gb             F7
And there is no shame
               Gb
And there is no hell
             F7
Like an old hell
        Gb           F7
There is no hell

[Verse 4]
              AbM7
And the silence flies
          EbM7/G
On its brief flight
   AbM7                            Fm9
A razor sharp crap shoot affair
                              Gm7b5  C7  Fm
And we light up our lives

[Outro]
Fm                 Gm7b5             Ab             Eb
   And there's no more of me exploding you
Gb                 Ab  Eb
Re-exposing you
         Gb           Ab  Eb
Like everybody do
Gb                   Ab  Eb
Re-exploding you
     Gb                        Fm
I don't know what to use
E
Make somebody move
Gb
Me exploding
                        Ab
Me exploding you
Ab
