The Ides chords - Fryars

Guitar chords with lyrics

This is a fantastic song. It's not usually played on the guitar I thought I'd tab
it because no-one else had and it needs to played by everyone. x


Verse 1

FF
I always said she was a runner,
And running through the fields,
A minorAm
I put a gun, I put a gun to her,
With the force she came to kneel,
FF
And as she screams and in her own blood,
I said sympathy for you,
A minorAm
I'll never have, I'll never have none,
Its time you told the truth,
FF
And I left the gun beside her,
And running in the nights,
A minorAm
I run for land, I ran for safety,
For new places and new sight,
FF
Always said she was a runner
And I thought I knew her well.
A minorAm
I never thought I was a runner,
and I thought I knew her well.


CHORUS:
A#A#
You should have died that very night,
FF
Good job for you I wasn't born a killer,
A#A#
you took my life, and I took my flight,
FF
Good job for you I wasn't born a killer.

Verse 2
A minorAm
FF
I always knew her as a baker,
But something I knew not,
A minorAm
is That when I tried to take her,
There was something Ides forgot,
FF
For I knew I couldn't keep her,
And running out of time,
A minorAm
I tried so hard, I tried to cheat her,
She was a running in her prime,
FF
So I thought about my choices,
And chose to drop the gun,
A minorAm
And amongst the screaming voices,
Something told me I should run.
FF
I never thought I was a runner,
and I thought I knew her well.
A minorAm
I never thought I was a runner,
and I thought I knew her well.

Verse 3

C majorC
There is so much to remember,
                     FF
But there is more to forget,
C majorC
I isn't seen you since December,
                     FF
I'm surprised we haven't met,
C majorC
and In the Depths of the Silly Isles,
                     FF
I heard you reside,
C majorC
and in the depths of my mind,
FF
I can still see your eyes


CHORUS
