Standard Tuning: CAPO 2

A     Bm
 Dear friend as you know
F#m
 Your flowers are withering
A     Bm
 Your mother's gone missing
F#m
  Your leaves have drifted away


A        Bm
 But the clouds are clearing up
F#m
 And I've come reveling
A         Bm
 Burning incandescently
F#m
 Like a bastard on the burning sea


A       Bm
 You're just like your father
F#m
 Buried deep beneath the water
A     Bm                  F#m
 Your pressing on your laurel
                   A
 Is stepping on my toes
       Bm
 Whose side are you on?
F#m 
 What side is this anyway?
A    Bm                  F#m
 Put down your sword and crown

 Come lay with me on the ground


A         Bm
 You come beating like moth's wings
F#m
 Spastic and violently
A         Bm        F#m
 Whipping me into a storm

 Shaking me down to the core
A    Bm
 But you run away from me
F#m
 And you left me shimmering
A     Bm
 Like diamond wedding rings
F#m
 Spinning dizzily down on the floor


A       Bm
 You're just like your father
F#m
 Buried deep beneath the water
A     Bm                  F#m
 Your pressing on your laurel
                   A
 Is stepping on my toes
       Bm
 Whose side are you on?
F#m 
 What side is this anyway?
A    Bm                  F#m
 Put down your sword and crown

 Come lay with me on the ground


A       Bm
 You're just like your father
F#m
 Buried deep beneath the water
A     Bm                  F#m
 Your pressing on your laurel
                   A
 Is stepping on my toes
       Bm
 Whose side are you on?
F#m 
 What side is this anyway?
A    Bm                  F#m
 Put down your sword and crown
                         A
 Come lay with me on the ground
