[Em] [A]
[D]
[A] [E] [A] And so the story goes, they wore the clothes, they said the things to make it [E] seem improbable.
[A] The will of a lie like the hope it [D] was.
[Em] [A]
And the good men tomorrow had their feet in the wallow [Em] and their heads are brown with nice [A] ashorn.
And how they bought their [D] positions with saccharine and trust.
[Em] And the world was asleep [A] to our latent fuss.
And the world was [D] asleep to our latent fuss.
[Em] Signs swirled through the [A] streets like the crust of the sun, [Bm] the view dear brothers.
And [A] our wings had barked, flashing [G] teeth of frost, standing [F#] tall in the dark.
[A]
Hanging out with your [G] 12 men, we were so [Em] turned on.
[C]
[D] [D]
[Em] [A] And I was stolen, he was whacked so he could scream and still [Em] relax, unbelievable.
[A] And we frightened the [D] small children away.
[Em] [A] And [D] our talk was old and dust would [E] flow through our veins and though it was midnight [Em] back at the kitchen door,
like [A] the grim face [D] on the cathedral floor,
[Em] the solid book we wrote [A] could not be found [D] today.
[Em] And it was stocking time for the [D] moon boys, the [Bm] Beaulieu brothers.
With [A] our backs on the arch, [G] and the devil may be here, but [F#] he can't sing above that.
Oh, and [A] we were gone, real [G] cruel traitors.
We were so [Em] turned on.
You thought we [C] were vacant.
[A] [D]
[Em] [A]
[D] And now the dress is hung, the ticket pawned, the factor max that proved [Em] the fact is melted down.
Woven on [A] the edging of [D] my pillow.
[Em] [E]
And [D] my brother lays upon the rocks, [A] he could be dead, he could be [Em] not, he could be you.
[A] He's chameleon, comedian, Corinthian and [D] caricature.
[Em] Shooting our [E] pie in the sky,
[D] Beaulieu brothers.
[Em] In the feeble, in the bad, [E] [A]
[Bm] Beaulieu brothers.
[A] In the blessed and cold, in [G] the crutch hungry dark,
where [F#] we played our mark.
[F#] Oh, [A] and we were gone, kings of [G] oblivion.
We were [Bm] so [Em] turned on.
In the night, war [C]
pavilion.
[F#]
Lay me place [G] and make me lie, [F] I'm starving for [F#] me gravy.
Leave my shoes [C] and door unlocked, [F] I might just slip [Bm] away.
I, I, just [F] for the die, I, please come away.
I, just for the die, I, please come [F#m] away.
I, please come away.
Just for the die, please come away.
Please come away.
Please come away.
Please come [F] away.
