[Intro]
E B C#m
E B E

[Verse 1]
          E       B         C#m
I hit the cul-de-sac on the spiritual path
E B                      C#m   C#m B A
Retraced my steps back home
A                                  E
But the house burned down before I got there
         B            C#m
And I found myself alone

E           B                 C#m
I tried to keep things in perspective
E     B                 C#m    C#m B A
As I hunted down the perpetrator
A                 E
Loaded up my toolkit with every hateful instrument
E   B                         C#m
Now here we are thirty years later

[Chorus]
                   E     B    Asus2 G#m F#m
I'm getting into knives
Esus               E     B    Asus2 G#m
I'm getting into knives
F#m       Esus            C#m      B
I've been up and down the buffet
A                   E
Several different times
                       B                  C#m
I'm adjusting my focus, I'm getting into knives

[Verse 2]
E         B               C#m
I sought wisdom from the sages
E   B                     C#m   C#m B A
Consulted with master tacticians
A                                   E
Met up with some guys who wouldn't tell me their last names
                     B                 C#m
They specialized in non-conventional munitions

E               B            C#m
Stayed on the scent like a bloodhound
E               B             C#m   C#m B A
Followed the clues where they led
A                           E
Taste of hot ashes on my tongue all day
     B                      C#m
I took my rifle with me to bed

[Chorus]
                          E     B    Asus2 G#m F#m
But I'm getting into knives
    Esus              E     B    Asus2 G#m F#m
I'm getting into knives
Esus   C#m         B              A          E
It's a gift to be simple, it's a gift to be free
                       B                  C#m
I'm adjusting my focus, I'm getting into knives

[Bridge]
D                           C#m
Held to my vision all these days
G#                                    C#m         C#m B A
While stray signals kept flooding the switchboard
A                     E
Came all this way for hunger
                        B
May I be worthy of my reward

E               B             C#m
I stood at the door, and I listened
E                   B          C#m              C#m B A
Rustled through my rucksack as quiet as I could
A                                   E
You can't give me back what you've taken
                     B                         C#m
But you can give me something that's almost as good

[Chorus]
                   E     B    Asus2 G#m F#m
I'm getting into knives
Esus                 E     B    Asus2 G#m
I am getting into knives
F#m       Esus          C#m         B     A                 E
Behold, I stand at the door, and I knock, and then I knock twice
                       B                  E
I've adjusted my focus, I'm getting into knives

[Outro]
E  B  C#m
E  B  E
