Pale White Horse chords by The Oh Hellos

CAPO 3

Bm        G             A
Down they fell like the children of Eden
Bm        G             A
Down they fell like the tower
        G      Bm            E
As the land relinquished her ghost


Bm        G           A
Heed the sirens, take shelter, my lover
Bm       G         A
Flee the fire that devours
        G             Bm
But the sight held me fixed
       G       A              A Bm G
Like a bayonet against my throat  (ooooh)

Bm      G                A
Neither plague or famine tempered my courage
Bm      G             A
Nor did raids make me cower
        G           Bm
But his translucent skin
        G               A
Made me shiver deep within my bones

A Bm G
ooooh

         Bm         A
It was a pale white horse
       Bm       A
With a crooked smile
      Bm      A      A
And I knew it was my time

A Bm G
ooooh

           Bm     A
It was the raging storm
     Bm      A
Of a foreign war
      Bm       A       A
And a face I'd seen before

A Bm G
