Beyond The Pale chords by The Dear Hunter

verse 1
E
Reanimated, I awake awaiting
           A
Mistakes I shouldn't make
Born of bonds
B E
 I wouldn't place, had I the choice
                   A
On loyal limbs that dance these melodies
From your voice

B  E
 If you demand I fall
      D        E
How will I evolve beyond the pale
A A/B C D E
Of your holy scrawl?

verse 2
  E
It begs the question of intent to know
              A
Or just observe your sycophants' deference
B   E
 Have we inherited the flaws of fumbling gods
               A
Too small to stumble on their own
     B
Who never grow

  E
If you demand we fall
       D        E
How will we evolve beyond the pale
A A/B C D E
Of your holy sprawl?

Ending
      D
What do you say to the suppliant ewe
                E7
Suffering for little more than show?
        D
What will you find as you blindly grind
                 E7
The gears of your invention to a halt?
      D
What better way to know the places you won't go
                 E7
Than recognizing where we haven't been
      D
Finding our faults lie

That none can answer why
              G#m
We never move from where we began

B   C  D  E
Still standing still
B  C D  E
Bent to your will
B   C  D  E
Flawed like you
