Shore To Shore chords by Johnny Flynn

Chords with lyrics

C majorC
Shore to shore got some land between
 C majorC
Island life is living through a cup of broken queens
        FF
hit the jackpot rolling through a pipe dream in a knot
 C majorC
and I'm missing what was pissing up the wall that I forgot
   G+G
I forgot
   FF
I forgot


C majorC

C majorC
I am the masked rider, give me some grace
C majorC
You've never seen me and you don't know my face
        FF
She was no [Incomprehensible] it was cold, it was blue
 C majorC
And it only happened despite me or you
FF
Me or you, me or you

C majorC
Smoking paper to the crimson flashing bars
C majorC
Drinking cocktail wine or cottage cream and passing strangers' cars
        FF
Live in one room housing with a roof to meet the sky
 C majorC
Spelling Jesus won't you please us 'cos you seem a damn nice guy
FF
Damn nice guy, damn nice guy


C majorC
We listened to passengers stamping old songs
C majorC
And we lose what's to lose when you haven't done wrong
 FF
Drums too slow for a funeral beat
 C majorC
No strumming of strings and no stamping of feet
FF
Of feet, of feet

C majorC
It's awfully considerate of you to think of me
C majorC
And it's not so hard to see you smoking fags and drinking tea
 FF
It's the crummy lost at seasick with a floating on the waves
 C majorC
To join the other flotsam with the ripped up queens and knaves
FF
Queens and knaves, queens and knaves


C majorC
There lies a lady, she's gone and she's gone
C majorC
She'll be a fine lady before too long
 FF
But I hit her head and she finished her walking
 C majorC
She shouldn't be dead, she was too busy talking
FF
Busy talking, busy talking


C majorC
They can fill a cup or two and still disturb the peace
C majorC
It's never made it all the way from shore to shore, from west to east
 FF
I read that independence was a lightness in your step
 C majorC
You walked away, I felt so heavy at the start of every day
FF
Every day, every day


C majorC
I've been waiting an hour and the bus hasn't come
C majorC
I've been cursing my God for the lack of the sun
 FF
I've been ruined by destiny, lowered by fate
 C majorC
And the upshot of this is I'm going to be late
FF
