Difficulty: Novice

F#F# - G#G# - A#mA#m - G#G# - A#mA#m - C majorC - C#C#

C#C#
If you can see me I can see you

E MajorE - F minorFm

E MajorE
I could wear your new blue shoes
E MajorE
I should wear your old red dress
E MajorE
And walk to the crossroads
E MajorE
So take this knife
F minorFm
And meet me across the river

E MajorE
Just chutes and ladders and this is the kiss
E MajorE
American Anna, fantastic Alsatian
E MajorE
From nowhere to nothing
F minorFm
And I go way back

E MajorE
Children swarm like thousands of bugs
E MajorE
Towards the lights the beacons above the hill
E MajorE                 F minorFm
The stars to the West, the South, the North and to the East

F#F#        G#G#
Now you could say I've got a gift of sorts
A#mA#m            G#G#
A augmentedA fear of rear windows and swinging doors
A#mA#m          C majorC
A augmentedA love of violence and dread of sighs

C#C#
If you can see me I can see you
C#C#
If you can see me I can see you

E MajorE - F minorFm

E MajorE
I have seen these bairns wave their fists at God
E MajorE
Swear to destroy the beasts, stamping the ground
     F minorFm
In their excitement for tomorrow
E MajorE
I could wear your new blue shoes
E MajorE
I should wear your old red dress
E MajorE
And walk to the crossroads
E MajorE
So take this knife
F minorFm
And meet me across the river

F#F#             G#G#
I will take your lands and all that lays beneath
A#mA#m            G#G#
The dust of cold flowers, prison of dark of ashes
A#mA#m          C majorC
I will slaughter your kind who descend from belief
C#C#
I am the spirit of greed, a lord of theft
C#C#
I'll burn all your books and the problems they make

C#C#
If you can see me I can see you
C#C#
