Snake Eyes by Mumford and Sons

(play Amadd6 as EADGBE x02211 - basically hold down your first finger on an Am chord)

[Intro]
Am    Am    Amadd6   Am   C/G    C/G  G   Em   F   F

[verse 1]
    Am        Amadd6   Am    C/G  G    Em         F
You hold it     in    your    hands,       let it flow,
      Am        Amadd6 Am     C/G      G    Em    F
this cruelty, of youth as you fall   again      alone
        Am     G   Em ? F      C
and the compromise of truth

[chorus 1]
F             Am          G                        F
  It?s in the eyes, I can tell you will always be danger
           Am                 G
We had it tonight, why do you leave it open?

Am    Am    Amadd6   Am   C/G    C/G   G   Em   F   F

[verse 2]
         Am      Amadd6   Am    C/G  G        Em         F
and the stakes, remain   too     high,   from the silent mind
         Am        Amadd6 Am    C/G  G         Em             F
and the shake, the lonely        inch,   that course down my spine
   Am        G      F
to leave the love divine
       Am        G     F     C
don?t leave the love divine
F                        C
   it?s a water tight excuse

[chorus 2]
F              Am          G                        F
   It?s in the eyes, I can tell you will always be danger
           Am                 G                 F
We had it tonight, why do you always seek absolution?
             Am          G                        F      F
It?s in the eyes, I can tell you will always be danger

[verse 3]
Am            Amadd6  Am          C/G  G             F
  How does the earth around your   feet,   just slip away?
      Am         Amadd6 Am         C/G  G          Em   F
And abandon will greet you in the   night, with snake eyes,
     Am     G      F      C
the most precious time

[chorus 2]

[solo - outtro]

F      F       Am       Am      G      Em     F         F
Am     G - Em  F        F       Am     Am     G -  Em   F
