Phoenixes chords by Emmy The Great

Hi all. It's not, as ever, perfect, but hopefully it's good enough. Enjoy!



D                    G
The phoenixes headed West, cross-country: Nebraska, Nevada
D
The phoenix has to leave its nest but
                   G
Change is good for some

It is not good for others



Em                     A
First there were five, then there were four
D                             G
Leaf, he changed his colours, that's for sure
Em
River was your favourite
              A
His eyes were aqua
D

He's in our history now
G
Like Cleopatra
    Em
And you
                      A
My screen grab beauty queen
                        G
Typing something out in green



             D
Like we were seventeen
             G
Like we were seventeen...



D
When we first met we read bliss
G
Soon we were too old for this
D
We though that weight loss was survival
G
We thought that vogue was French for bible



Em
Up on the wall
A
We put them all
D                             G
Leaf, he changed his colours, that's for sure

And you
                      A

Like we were seventeen...



D
River, Rain, Summer, Leaf, and Liberty...

River, Rain, Summer, Leaf, and Liberty...
