Rule 38 - Elders chords by Fish In A Birdcage

• Difficulty: Intermediate 💪

Verse 1:
                        G#m F#
I've been pounding the pavement
                   E            B
Searching for the things I can control
              G#m       F#
Yet I've felt estrangement
          E                B
With this world I used to know
                  G#m        F#
Seems everything's changing
                E                     B
Maybe we could slow to catch our breath
                 G#m     F#
I'm worried we're moving
     E                B
At a rate we will regret

Chorus:
C#               C#m  E      B F#
Elder, won't you let us decide
C#          C#m       G#m           F#
I'd like to heal from greed and the lies
C#                C#m    E       B    F#
Elder, won't you please move aside
C#m           E          G#m        F#
Give us the gift of a bright set of eyеs


Verse 2:
                      G#m      F#
I've been coping with strangers
           E                   B
We'vе been bonding through our pain
              G#m F#
It carries the danger
            E           B
That we'll break and go insane
                G#m F#
It's simply not human
              E               B
When you've torn your soul to eat
              G#m        F#
Won't you think of their children
          E
That must bear the stress they've seen


Chorus:
C#               C#m  E      B F#
Elder, won't you let us decide
C#          C#m       G#m           F#
I'd like to heal from greed and the lies
C#                C#m    E       B    F#
Elder, won't you please step aside
C#m           E          G#m        F#
Give us the gift of a bright set of eyеs
