Henry Cow - War chords
Start Jamming...
Tell the world, tell them all of evil news.
One day a girl was caught in the street,
Her face was covered with blood,
She was very afraid, she was afraid of her.
She grabbed her hand and took her hand,
And she started to laugh, she started to laugh.
[E]
[G#] [G]
[A] [Em] [E]
[B] [G#m] And she started to laugh, she started to laugh.
[F]
And she started to laugh, she started to laugh.
[B] [F#]
[E] [C#] [C#m] [C#]
[C#m] [F#m] Slacking the bones on the empty tarot read,
Painted tarot green,
Ponders and gets that money,
She shakes her gaudy locks over the deserted watch.
[E] [F#m]
[E] [G#m] Come follow me, out of bath of spirits,
Follow my curse, pilgrims and black devils.
You met those thieves,
As I run the libraries,
The pilgrims in grief,
Most think they are led by me.
They get had, they get lost,
Religion is in trouble,
But as much as you'll get what they [Em] deserve.
[F#] [G] [A]
[Em] [B]
