Chords with lyrics
Default capo: 6
No Capo is good, so is
Capo on 1
Capo on 2
Capo on 3
depending on your voice
G+G C majorC
Her eyes and words are so icy, oh, but she burns
A minorAm G+G
Like rum on a fire
G+G
Hot and fast and angry as she can be
C majorC A minorAm G+G
I walk my days on a wire
C majorC Cmaj7Cmaj7 C majorC Cmaj7Cmaj7
It looks ugly, but it's clean
C majorC A minorAm G+G
Oh mamma, don't fuss over me
G+G C majorC G+G
The way she tells me I'm hers and she is mine
G+G C majorC G+G
Open hand or closed fist would be fine
C majorC A minorAm C majorC A minorAm G+G
But blood is rare and sweet as cherry wine
G+G C majorC
Calls of guilty thrown at me all while she stains
A minorAm G+G
The sheets of some other
G+G C majorC
Thrown at me so powerfully just like she throws
A minorAm G+G
With the arm of her brother
C majorC Cmaj7Cmaj7 C majorC Cmaj7Cmaj7
But I want it, it's a crime
C majorC Cmaj7Cmaj7 A minorAm G+G
That she's not around most of the time
G+G C majorC G+G
The way she tells me I'm hers and she is mine
G+G C majorC G+G
Open hand or closed fist would be fine
C majorC A minorAm C majorC A minorAm G+G
But blood is rare and sweet as cherry wine
[Guitar Solo]
G+G C majorC
Her fight and fury's fiery, oh, but she loves
A minorAm G+G
Like sleep to the freezing
G+G C majorC
Sweet and right and merciful, I'm all but washed
A minorAm G+G
In the tide of her breathing
C majorC Cmaj7Cmaj7 C majorC Cmaj7Cmaj7
And it's worth it, it's divine
C majorC A minorAm G+G
I have this some of the time
G+G C majorC G+G
The way she tells me I'm hers and she is mine
G+G C majorC G+G
Open hand or closed fist would be fine
C majorC A minorAm C majorC A minorAm
But blood is rare and sweet as cherry wine
End on G+G
*****P.S.*****
A augmentedA trick I have learned is to occasionally add your fourth finger to the third fret of the A augmentedA string when playing
a G+G chord, to add a higher pitch on some words, for example in the first line you may add it when playing
"words" and then again on "oh, but". If this is confusing just ignore it! Have fun! (:
