Skulls chords by Bastille

Guitar chords with lyrics

Capo 2nd fret
Standard Tuning

Intro: E, G#m, F#, E - x2

Verse:
E         G#m
I came here for sanctuary
 F#                      E
Away from the winds and the sounds of the city
E             G#m
I came here to get some peace
   F#                 E
Way down deep where the shadows are heavy

E             G#m
I can't help but think of you
  F#                     E
In these four walls my thoughts seem to wander
E          G#m
To some distant century
   F#                E
When everyone we know is six feet under

Pre-Chorus:
   E            G#m
When all of our friends are dead and just a memory
  E             G#m
And we're side by side it's always been just you and me
  E    G#m
For all to see

Chorus:
E          G#m  F#     E
When our lives are over and all that remains
  E        G#m    F#       E
Are our skulls and bones let's take it to the grave
  E           G#m
And hold me in your arms, hold me in your arms
F#       E
I'll be buried here with you
  E      G#m     F#     E
And I'll hold in these hands all that remains

Verse:
I don't want to rest in peace
I'd rather be the ghost that annoys you
I hope you can make me laugh
Six feet down when we're bored of each other

A match is our only light
It's day of the dead and I'm Indiana Jones here
These coins sit upon our eyes
Pool our funds and pay the boat together

Pre-Chorus:
   E            G#m
When all of our friends are dead and just a memory
  E             G#m
And we're side by side it's always been just you and me
  E    G#m
For all to see

Chorus:
E          G#m  F#     E
When our lives are over and all that remains
  E        G#m    F#       E
Are our skulls and bones let's take it to the grave
  E           G#m
And hold me in your arms, hold me in your arms
F#       E
I'll be buried here with you
  E      G#m     F#     E
And I'll hold in these hands all that remains

Bridge:
  E          G#m
And now it's all before you
F#          E
Hold me in your arms, hold me in your arms

Chorus:
E          G#m  F#     E
When our lives are over and all that remains
  E        G#m    F#       E
Are our skulls and bones let's take it to the grave
  E           G#m
And hold me in your arms, hold me in your arms
F#       E
I'll be buried here with you
  E      G#m     F#     E
And I'll hold in these hands all that remains
