The Drowning Years chords by The Delgados
Guitar chords with lyrics
This is the life of a woman with demons
F#m C#m F#m C#m
The first time we met I was sure she was steaming
Dm Dm F#m C#m F#m C#m
This is my life, this is my life - What a life
F#m C#m F#m C#m
Life isn’t precious and life isn’t sacred
F#m C#m F#m C#m
Sometimes release only comes when you meet death
Dm Dm F#m C#m F#m C#m
A night of reprieve we were wrecked when we slept in the park
Dm Dm
When we woke in the morning you cried
Am Em F G (x2)
could I squeeze out the dark
(CHORUS) Am Em F G Destroy the noises that make all the voices and Am Em F G Get them out of my head Am Em F G Bring on the screaming and I’ll take your demons now Am Em F E(G instead of E on final CHORUS) that I’m already dead (2nd VERSE – same as 1st) Days of release when she almost felt better Gradually faded and words couldn’t get her Dm Dm F#m C#m F#m C#m Where is the light, where is the light, get the light Fearless and clear all her doubts had been cast off Her last night alive is a nightmare I’m part of Dm Dm F#m C#m F#m C#m Dreams are a lie, if dreams are a lie - So am I Dm Dm Am Em F G (x2) If thats all there is then I might as well get in the fire (TO CHORUS than to below) F Am Em F Oh how the rights of the righteous kept coming F Am Em F Shining before like the day F Am Em F E I stand before them and cried that you’re dying your way F#m C#m F#m C#m F#m C#m … I’m still not sure if the right and the wrong side is one
