________________
/ Tool / This song is about the fundamental stupidity of man when
/ Right in Two / it kills itself in wars and such, because it's sometimes
/ 10,000 days / doesn't see past things as greed, power, blood and
/_______________/ everything else that ever caused a conflict. Note Maynard's
lovely religious style here, he's genius!

*************************************************************************
* *
* These are the time signatures for the verses: *
* *
* 3/4 2/4 *
* | Dm | Bb | Gm | Cadd9 | *
* *
* The most logical way of counting this would be to count 1-2-3 *
* four times, but then skip the last beat the 4th time. *
* It could be notated like this, just to make it clear what I mean: *
* *
* Dm Bb Gm Cadd9 *
* | 1 + 2 + 3 + | 1 + 2 + 3 + | 1 + 2 + 3 + | 1 + 2 + | *
* *
*************************************************************************
Dm Bb Gm Cadd9
Angels on the sideline
Dm Bb Gm Cadd9
Puzzled and amused
Dm Bb Gm Cadd9
Why did Father give these humans free will?
Dm Bb Gm Cadd9
Now they're all confused
Dm Bb Gm Cadd9 Dm Bb Gm Cadd9
Don't these talking monkeys know that Eden has enough to go around?
Dm Bb Gm
Plenty in this holy garden, silly monkeys
Cadd9 Dm Bb Gm
Where there's one you're bound to divide it
Cadd9 Dm
Right in two
*The following three verses just follow that same chord progression*
Angels on the sideline
Baffled and confused
Father blessed them all with reason
And this is what they choose?
Monkey killing monkey killing monkey over pieces of the ground
Silly monkeys give them thumbs, they forge a blade
And where there's one they're bound to divide it
Right in two
Right in two
Monkey killing monkey killing monkey
Over pieces of the ground
Silly monkeys
Give them thumbs, they make a club and beat their brother down
Dm Bb Gm Cadd9 D Bb Gm C
How they survive so misguided is a mystery
Dm Bb Gm Cadd9 D Bb
Repugnant is a creature who would squander the ability to lift an eye to heaven
Gm Gsus2
Conscious of his fleeting time here
*************************************************************
* *
* For the chorus herethe timing is a bit more tricky: *
* *
* 3/4 4/4 4/4 *
* | Dm | Bbsus2 Csus2 | Gadd9 | *
* *
* I would count it like this: *
* *
* Dm Bbsus2 Csus2 Gadd9 *
* | 1 + 2 + 3 + | 1 + 2 + | 1 + 2 + | 1 + 2 + 3 + 4 + | *
* *
*************************************************************
Dm Bbsus2 Csus2 Gadd9
Cut it all over right in two
Dm Bbsus2 Csus2 Gadd9
Cut it all over right in two
Dm Bbsus2 Csus2 Gadd9
Cut it all over right in two
Dm Bbsus2 Csus2 Gadd9
Cut it all over right in two
*For the next verse, there aren't really any chords for as such.
It's very riff-based, so the most chordy thing I could come up
with would be something like this. The timing is as the verses:
3/4 2/4
| Dm | Dm | Dm | Cadd9 |
Fight over clouds
Over earth
Over sky
And fight over lie
Over blood
Over anything
Fight over love
Over sun
Over nothing
Fight till they die
Over what?
For their ending
Angels on the sideline again
Benched along with patience and reason
Angels on the sideline again
Wondering when this tug of war will end
Cut it all over right in two
Cut it all over right in two
Cut it all over right in two
Right in two
Right in two
