Wires - Athlete (from the album Tourist) By Hywel Thomas #----------------------------------PLEASE NOTE---------------------------------# #This file is the author's own work and represents their interpretation of the song. You may only use this file for private study, scholarship, or research. # #------------------------------------------------------------------------------# A beautiful song evoking the horror of someone you love lying injured on a hospital bed This song is strummed very lightly on the highest four strings, with on/off muting with the barré finger. If you don't like barré chords ignore the sharps and play it Dm, C and Gm with an F in the bridge. Ebm You got wires going in C# You got wires coming out of your skin Ebm You got tears making tracks C# I got tears that are scared of the facts Abm Running down corridors through automatic doors Ebm C# Got to get to you, got to see this through Abm I seen hope is here in a plastic box Ebm C# I seen Christmas lights reflect in your eyes Ebm You got wires going in C# You got wires coming out of your skin Ebm There's dry blood on your wrist C# Your dry blood on my fingertip Abm Running down corridors through automatic doors Ebm C# Got to get to you, got see this through Abm First night of your life curled up on your own Ebm C# Looking at me now you will never know Abm Ebm I see it in your eyes I see it in your eyes F# C# You'll be alright Abm Ebm I see it in your eyes I see it in your eyes F# C# You'll be alright Abm C# Alright. Abm Running down corridors through automatic doors Ebm C# Got to get to you, got to see this through Abm I see hope is here in a plastic box Ebm C# I seen Christmas lights reflect in your eyes Ebm With a tear in your eyes Abm Running down corridors through automatic doors Ebm C# Got to get to you, got to see this through Abm First night of your life curled up on your own Ebm C# Looking at you now you would never know
