Intro - played on the top 3 or four strings E-B-G-D
B(11th fret) Bmaj7(11th) E6 or C#m7(9th) x3
Bm7-E6 or C#m7
B Bmaj7 B Bmaj7
Did you ever have to do the thing you swore you’d never do
Something filthy and impatient, something churlish bold and shrewd
E B
Well sit down my boy and I’ll tell you exactly how I crawled right
Bmaj B - Bmaj7
through
E B
Gather in your confidence and hear the story of a man who came
Bmaj7 B-Bmaj7
undone
B-Bmaj7 again
First you weigh up your commitments where your loyalties really lie
And if you bump into Jesus you just look him in the eye
E B Bmaj7
Tell him that you’re fine silently return to sharpening your knife
E F# Gm F# E
Finally when the time comes think of who you really need
E F# B -Bmaj7
And close your eyes so tightly you think they’ll bleed
SAME THING - GET THE JIST?
Don’t drop your guard don’t let them know the thoughts inside your head
Just do what you’ve always done though they all wish you were dead
they’ll crush your heart your spirit and your soul but keep your eyes ahead
And you know when the time comes there’ll be nowhere new to hide
He’ll just be in your heart and you’ll lose pride
B -Baug X3 F#
B-E9 X3 - F#
Never break the line
never click your heels in time
If your heart’s anything like mine that’s not the way
Don’t get comfortable down there
don’t pretend that it’s always fair
with your fingers crossed it’s not your loss
F# Em7 - Run up to F#m7
If you really want to you can stay
You can stay
Gm7 - A7(3rd and 5th frets) x3? B - B??(same as B with Dstring fingered on the 3rd fret instead of 4th)
ALTERNATELY JUST PLAY THE RUN DOWNS WHICH ARE IN THE CHORDS ABOVE
does a cheeky A-B before going back into the last verse
Don’t drop your guard don’t let them know the thoughts inside your head
Just do what you’ve always done though they all wish you were dead
They’ll crush your heart your spirit and your soul but keep your eyes ahead
And some day when your bone’s breaking you don’t know gifts from theft
Drink yourself away one to my left
Never break the line
never click your heels in time
If your heart’s anything like mine that’s not the way
Don’t get comfortable down there
don’t pretend that it’s always fair
with your fingers crossed it’s not your loss
If you really want to you can stay
You can stay
After this chorus it goes to the Em7 - C#m7 then to the intro for the outro ending on a solitary D# note on the 11th fret of the high E
B(11th fret) Bmaj7(11th) E6 or C#m7(9th) x3
