Abacus of Doom

This one is a bit... weird. Don't know quite what genre you'd call it. Perhaps someone can tell me when I upload the vid of it and link it here... Anyway, until then, the lyrics and chords:



Abacus of Doom


Intro:
LH: A (note), then A5, then add octave [onbeat]
RH: C (note), then C5 [offbeat]
First time staccato, second time pedalled

V1:
       A (octave)                  F (octave)
The abacus, the abacus of doom
       A (octave)                  F (octave)
The abacus, the abacus of doom
   C (oct.)        G (oct.)  A (oct.)          E (oct.)
It flies in your faces, in all the world's darkest places
       F (oct.)
The abacus, the abacus of doom

V2:
       C5/A                          C5/F
The abacus, the abacus of doom

       C5/A                          C5/F
The abacus, the abacus of doom
       C5                G              C5/A                  Em
It encourages the repetition, endless darkness and division
       C5/F
The abacus, the abacus of doom

Intro

V3:
The abacus, the abacus of doom
The abacus, the abacus of doom
Eternally it's counting, suspicion it's ever mounting
The abacus, the abacus of doom

V4:
The abacus, the abacus of doom
The abacus, the abacus of doom
Locked within its strict rhythms, I can't escape its dark dominions
The abacus, the abacus, the abacus, the abacus...

V4:
       Am                             F
The abacus, the abacus of doom
       Am                             F
The abacus, the abacus of doom
C                          G                       Am                  Em
Locked within its strict rhythms, I can't escape its dark dominions
C5/F
The abacus, the abacus, the abacus, the abacus of doom

Instrumental (verse + intro, 8va)


And that's it. A little different to my usual fare, not quite sure where this came from. Guess the title kind of ran away with my imagination. But there you go. Vid should be up pretty soon. Edit: Vid now up. Link here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pvZukIzdfNw
