Chords in this song

Strum
D-DU-UDU
:  00023x / 000230
 About the chords, the voicings of G, G6 and Dsus2 are all altered from the "normal" way
 playing them, but I really think these sound better and closer to the song. The variant of Dsus2chord
 can be chosen depending on whether you play with the song in the speakers or not... =)
 In the last line of the chorus, the G6 is played as a quick transition chord, just one beat.
 Optional in the bridge: the keyboard strings keep the Em until just before the change to
 so it can also be played without the G.
D'  you breathe the name  of your saviour  in your hour of  need
N'  taste the blame  if the flavour  should remind  you of  greed
 (played as verse)
 Of implication,  insinuation,  and ill  will 'til you cannot  lie  still
 In all  this turmoil before  red cape and foil  come closing  in for  a kill
Come  feed the rain
 'Cause i'm thirsty  for your love
 Dancing  underneath  the skies of lust
 Yeah feed the rain
 'Cause without  your love my life
 Ain't nothing  but this carnival  of rust
Ooh
 played as verse)
 It's all a game avoiding failure when true colors will bleed
 All in the name of misbehavior and the things we don't need
 I lust for after no disaster can touch, touch us anymore
 And more than ever I hope to never fall where enough is not the same it was before
 ---Chorus, repeated two times (with the last line of the first chorus as follows):
 Ain't nothing  but this carnival  of rust
 played as second chorus - that is; twice, with the same change in the
 line of the first repetition):
 Dont walk away
 Dont walk away
 When the world is burning
 Dont walk away
 Dont walk away
 When the heart is yearning
