Mankind chords by Jamie Cullum

Tuning: Standard (E A D G B E)

Ab                Eb
Now the ghost has left the room
Ab              Eb
And the music's gotten bad
Ab                  Eb
The party's feeling rotten
             Fm
Was that the best we've ever had?
Ab                        Eb
Sometimes the thoughts in my head
Ab                Eb
Yeah they terrify me
Ab                      Eb
When you understand the radical
             Fm
And the pure simplicity

Singin'
Ab         Eb
Goodbye to patience
Ab          Eb
Farewell to dreams
Ab          Eb
So long to sacred
             Fm
Well it's as painful as it seems
        Ab          Eb
Still I won't write off
     Ab          Eb
No I won't write off
     Ab          Eb
No I won't write off

Mankind
Ab                         Eb
Well I don't believe you'd go to hell
Ab                      Eb
But I like the sound of heaven
Ab                           Eb
I took a pill and went there in my mind
Fm
In spring 2007
Ab                            Eb
Well the message came through loud and clear
Ab               Eb
So I hung up the phone
Ab                     Eb
It didn't bring me any peace my love
Fm
But I did not feel alone

Singin'
Ab         Eb
Goodbye to patience

So long to sacred
