Hieroglyphs chords by The Oh Hellos

Chords with lyrics

Verse 1:
FF           FF
Stamping your heels along with the drum
DmDm          DmDm    C majorC     (FF)
Praying the serpent's underneath one of 'em
FF             FF
Like there's some villain left to defeat
DmDm            DmDm
Instead of a dance with a rhythm and beat!

    FF          FF
‘Cause you've been too busy thinking ahead
  DmDm          DmDm
Of where we're all going after we're dead
  FF         FF
To maybe consider our bodies are worth
DmDm           DmDm
More than the dust that we can return

    Bb majorBb    DmDm G minorGm Bb majorBb   DmDm
To the ground again! (around again)
       G minorGm    Bb majorBb    DmDm  G minorGm Bb majorBb C majorC
We turn that old wheel round again!

Verse 2:
   FF         FF
Well, even the great celestial hieroglyphs
  DmDm        DmDm  C majorC
Are bodies of dust illuminated, and if
  FF          FF
The heavens can be both sacred and dust
DmDm     Dm7Dm7
 Oh, maybe so can the rest of us!

    FF           FF
‘Cause I've seen the line of ocean and shore
  DmDm        DmDm
The tumbling tide of water and soil
  FF          FF
And I've seen the day's fading begin
  DmDm          DmDm    C majorC
The gradient wake of the sun that spins

 Bb majorBb   FF   Bb majorBb   FF
Around again! (around again)
             Bb majorBb     FF   Bb majorBb C majorC
It'll burn that old wheel down in the end!
