Cassius Naiads Cassadies chords by Fleet Foxes

Chords with lyrics

It's two tracks but I figured I'd rather submit it as one song


A augmentedA
Past my window, out in the street
Life makes short work of all I see
G+G
Men take the change from beggars
Tight bound in sheets
FF                A augmentedA
Red and blue, the useless sirens scream


A augmentedA
Song of masses, passing outside
All inciting the fifth of July
   G+G
When guns for hire open fire
Blind against the dawn
FF                 A augmentedA
When the knights in iron took the pawn
FF
You and I, out into the night
                  A augmentedA
Held within the line that they have drawn

Chorus:
D MajorD
As I went they're all beside us in silence
As if unaffected amid the violence
   B minorBm F# minorF#m E MajorE D MajorD B minorBm
Ooh, are we also tamed
I was in a river, as if in water
Wife, a son, a son, a son and a daughter
     F# minorF#m E MajorE  D MajorD
Ooh, are we also tamed?


A augmentedA
I walked home, no words to say
Cassius, one month gone on his way
  G+G
And who will lead us
And who remains to die?
FF              A augmentedA
By a thread, drop my head to cry

Chorus:
D MajorD
As I went they're all beside us in silence
As if unaffected amid the violence
   B minorBm F# minorF#m E MajorE D MajorD B minorBm
Ooh, are we also tamed
I was in a river, as if in water
Wife, a son, a son, a son and a daughter
     F# minorF#m E MajorE  D MajorD
Ooh, are we also tamed?

B minorBm F# minorF#m E MajorE D MajorD B minorBm (3x, bass solo)

a couple measures of A, then bridge:

FF F#13* (7x)   *or just use F#F# or F#7F#7 if you want, but I hear that D#D# note in one of the electrics

FF into D MajorD (this starts the second track)

--------------
hold on D MajorD until the lyrics start (it ain't long)
(D MajorD)      G+G     D MajorD
Who stole the life from you?
      G+G
Who turned you so against you?
      C majorC
Who was the thief, who shaved your teeth
 B minorBm   A minorAm      D MajorD
Accepting just virtue?

      G+G   D MajorD
And did he act alone?
     G+G    D MajorD
Were any more complicit?
       C majorC
When he would sing, and offer the ring
   B minorBm        A minorAm
What older voice said, "kiss it"?

D MajorD
D G+G (2x)
D MajorD F#7F#7
G# minorG#m F#F# (3x)
G# minorG#m G+G
A minorAm G+G
D MajorD
      G+G     D MajorD
Fire can't doubt its heat
      G+G     D MajorD
Water can't doubt its power
      C majorC
You're not adrift
You're not a gift
  B minorBm        A minorAm   D MajorD
You know you're not a flower
