Sing Captain chords by Handsome Furs

Chords with lyrics

There's a little fill/hammer-on he does each time there's a C majorC FF C majorC at the end of a line on the C.
A augmentedA great song to play acoustic, even though there's a lot of synth on the actual song.



INTRO:
C majorC  A minorAm FF C majorC

VERSE:
C majorC
There's a town, just a little town
      C majorC
Raining cloud, a hollow sound
     A minorAm      FF    C majorC FF C majorC
When our lovers gather round
C majorC
And if they're cold
       C majorC
Then they're cold
     C majorC
Feed them wire, feed them chrome
       A minorAm
We hate this place here
    FF        C majorC FF C majorC
It's our home, it's our home

CHORUS:

     A minorAm   A minorAm    A minorAm    A minorAm   FF    FF      C majorC FF C majorC
And your car-collapsing trees and I could turn them back to sound
     A minorAm   A minorAm   A minorAm    A minorAm  FF    FF     C majorC  FF C majorC
With the torches in our hands we will reduce it to the ground

VERSE 2:
       C majorC
I stood outside in the bright black night
       C majorC
Beneath their buzzing power lines
      A minorAm      FF      C majorC FF C majorC
And I saw a number in the sky, in the sky
C majorC
And if there's a God, he's a little God
         C majorC
And he holds you closely inside these walls
         A minorAm       FF   C majorC FF C majorC
But he hates his babies most of all...

CHORUS:
     A minorAm   A minorAm    A minorAm    A minorAm   FF    FF      C majorC FF C majorC
And your car-collapsing trees and I could turn them back to sound
     A minorAm   A minorAm   A minorAm    A minorAm  FF    FF     C majorC FF C majorC
With the torches in our hands we will reduce it to the ground
    A minorAm  A minorAm   A minorAm    A minorAm   FF    FF     C majorC FF C majorC
In the parliament of days the little hands are reaching out
    A minorAm   A minorAm   A minorAm   A minorAm  FF     FF    C majorC FF C majorC
You can try and try and try but baby there's no way around
