Silent War Ukulele chords by A Fine Frenzy

C                       Am
Stifling this day is stifling

                     F
You're sprawled out like a king

        G                          C
On the sheets of my queen-sized bed


 C                    Am
And I'm too hot to lie beside

              F
Possessed of idle mind

      G                       C
This calm is a false friend


 C                     Am
Jealousy I suspect jealousy

              F
Something is changing me

      G                          C
Real slow from the inside out


 C                       Am
It seems you mean too much to me

              F
Too much for comfort see

     G                       C
The cause is the cure now



 C             F
We fought a silent war

        G                        C                  Am
In the hardware store and the air was thick as paint

          F                            G
Though I carried it on I knew that I was wrong

       C                Am
But I fight when I'm afraid


       F                 Dm       G       C
And I come with guns a-blaaaaazing


 C                        Am
Someone once I forget who it was

               F
Said Do not think so much

           G                           C
You can't hear what your heart says


 C                            Am
But it speaks it tugs and puddle-leaps

              F
And bangs my ribs to pieces

 G                          C
Thoughts are the safe bet


 C             F
We fought a silent war

        G                        C                  Am
In the hardware store and the air was thick as paint

           F                           G
Though I carried it on I knew that I was wrong

       C                Am
But I fight when I'm afraid


    F                 Dm
My guns will come a-blazing

   F                 G      C
A lesser man would be afraid


     Dm             C           Dm            C
And Oh how you razed me oh to the ground

     Dm              Am            F
And love oh you brought me down

          Dm              G                G7           C
With the sound of the shaming as you went out


C F Dm

     G                    C
The cause is the cure now


 C             F
We fought a silent war

        G                        C                  Am

          F                            G
Though I carried it on I knew that I was wrong

       C                Am
But I fight when I'm afraid


      F               Dm
With guns I come a-blazing

   F                  Dm
A lesser man would break free

      F                 G             C
I'm sorry 's all I meant to say
