The Sky Is A Poisonous Garden chords by Concrete Blonde

Chords with lyrics

Intro:

E minorEm

Verse 1:
 E minorEm
The stars above shine down below

 E minorEm
The fever you hold on this night


Deathly cold
    G+G              A minorAm
I can feel from this side of the door

        E minorEm
I can feel Eleanor

 E minorEm
He said, sun don't rise

 E minorEm
He said sun don't shine

 E minorEm
He said don't bring tomorrow

        G+G
To justify tonight


Chorus:
   G+G          A minorAm
The moon is full-the stars are bright

     E minorEm
And the sky is a poisonous garden


Tonight.


Verse 2:
 E minorEm
Sip your Tequila.

 E minorEm
Give me some time

 E minorEm
To unlearn all I've learned for the

spring to unwind
 G+G
And then came your sweet mouth

 A minorAm         E minorEm
I began to move mine.


 E minorEm
They knew with the dawn

 E minorEm
They knew with the day

 E minorEm
They knew what they had


Would be young naked prey
  G+G
And attacked from all sides

   A minorAm
By a world filled with

      E minorEm
Poison and hate


Verse 3:
 E minorEm
Eleanor trembles.

 E minorEm
Eleanor moans.

 E minorEm
Somehow, this body is someone

        G+G
She always has known

            A minorAm
She cries tears on his chest

         E minorEm
O so silent and slow-


 E minorEm
She said please don't go.

 E minorEm
Please don't go

 E minorEm
And she cried and she died in his arms

          G+G
And he cried nevermore


Chorus:
  G+G           A minorAm
The moon is full, the stars are bright

     E minorEm
And the sky is a poisonous garden


Tonight.
