Black Flies chords by Ben Howard

Chords with lyrics

FF    A minorAm
Black flies on the windowsill

That we are

That we are

        FF
That we are to know
    A minorAm
Winter stole summer's thrill
           FF
And the river's cracked and cold

FF    A minorAm
See the sky is no man's land
    FF
A augmentedA darkened plume to stay
    A minorAm
Hope here needs a humble hand
    FF
Not a fox found in your place

A minorAm   G+G    FF
And no man is an island, oh this I know
    A minorAm
But can't you see, oh?
    G+G    FF
Maybe you were the ocean, when I was just a stone

FF    A minorAm
Black flies on the windowsill

That we are

That we are
           FF
That we are to hold
    A minorAm
Comfort came against my will
    FF
And every story must grow old

    A minorAm
Still I'll be a traveller
    FF
A augmentedA gypsy's reins to face
    A minorAm
But the road is wearier
    FF
With that fool found in your place

A minorAm   G+G    FF
And no man is an island, oh this I know
    A minorAm
But can't you see, oh?
    G+G    FF
Maybe you were the ocean, when I was just a stone

FF
So here we are

(A minorAm FF A minorAm)
(FF A minorAm FF)

A minorAm   G+G
And I don't wanna beg your pardon
    FF
And I don't wanna ask you why

But if I was to go my own way
