Black and Gold-Sam Sparro
I listened to and played the other tabs and something wasn't right, so I cam up 
with my own and I think it sounds a little more like the original song. Capo 
wherever you like, because it's not the original key.


Am
The fish swam out of the ocean 
Am
and grew legs and they started walking 
F
and the apes climbed down from the trees 
Dm                             Em           
and grew tall and they started talking 

Am
and the stars fell out of the sky
Am 
and my tears rolled into the ocean 
F
now i'm looking for a reason why 
Dm                         Em
you even set my world into motion 

Am
'cause if you're not really here 
Am
then the stars don't even matter 
F
now i'm filled to the top with fear 
Dm                           Em
but it's all just a bunch of matter 
Am
'cause if you're not really here 
Am
then i don't want to be either 
F
i wanna be next to you 
Dm
black and gold 
Em
black and gold 
Am
black and gold 

interlude: Dm   Em    Am -2x (black and gold part of chorus)

(rest of the song is the same as above)

i looked up into the grey sky 
and see a thousand eyes staring back 
and all around these golden beacons 
i see nothing but black 

i feel a way of something beyond them 
i don't see what i can feel 
if vision is the only validation 
then most of my life isn't real 

'cause if you're not really here 
then the stars don't even matter 
now i'm filled to the top with fear 
but it's all just a bunch of matter 
'cause if you're not really here 
then i don't want to be either 
i wanna be next to you 
black and gold 
black and gold 
black and gold
