Chords with lyrics

Song:  No Rest

This is my first tab - please be gentle ;)

-------------------------


chord 'F#1' means 'one octave higher'


[verse 1]

 F#F#
I used to be a king alone
   C#C#
Like Solomon or Rehoboam
  F#F#
And in the eaves the corvidae
  C#C#
did jealous keep my picture frames
  F minorFm       AbAb     C#C#
and everything did oxidate in place

[verse 2 with different ending]

  F#F#
But then you came, a single cell
   C#C#
with astrolabe and carousel
  F#F#
and algebra and symmetry
  C#C#
and none of this was lost on me
  BB B   F#1   BB   BB  F#1   F#F#
and I could see how still I'd been before
  BB B   F#1 BB B   F#1    F#F#
If I don't eat, I don't sleep at all.


[bridge 1]

         BB
Like limbs in procession,
       EbmEbm
like so many birds,
        BB
stampeding like oxen,
         EbmEbm
our hearts are a herd,

[chorus 1]

          C#C#
I loved you in the bed,
          EbmEbm        C#C#
I loved you in the best way possible,
          EbmEbm
I loved you in the bed,


[bridge 2]

F#F#       Bb majorBb     BB
Did you see the light in my heart?
Did you see the sweat on my brow?
Did you see the fear in my heart?
Did you see me bleeding it out?


[chorus 2 and end]

          C#C#
I loved you in the bed,
          EbmEbm        C#C#
I loved you in the best way possible,
          EbmEbm        BB
I loved you in the best way possible,
          EbmEbm        C#C#
I loved you in the best way possible,
          EbmEbm        BB
I loved you in the best way possible,
              F#F#
