Port Of Morrow chords by The Shins

Guitar chords with lyrics

I've tried to line up the chords as best as possible, as always, listen to the
song for best comparison. I'm sure this is right, then again, I have just spent an
hour I should've spent in bed working this out. I've actually worked out a lot of
the new album, will likely add them soon. The lyrics are makeshift, based on what
I could decipher, will update when the album comes out :D Enjoy! Sounds best
played on open chords!

Verse

Dm       A
Through the rain and all the clutter
F      C    G
Under the Freemont bridge I saw a the pigeon fly
Dm      F       C         A
Fly in fear from the raptor come to take its life

Dm       A
And as it dove in for the capture
F   C    G
Funnelled the fear through my ancient eyes

Dm       F
Seeing flight, what I know are
   C          A
The bitter mechanics of life


F     G          E       F
Under my hat it breathes the lines are all imagined
F      G       E          F
A fact of life I know to hide from my little girl
F      G        E         F
I know my place amongst the bugs and all the animals
F           E
And this from these ordinary people
      F      G
You were longing to be free

Dm     A
My hotel and on the TV
F  C      G
A picture on the stage like a buzzard cries
Dm       F        C       A
Our a warning phony sorrow is trying to get a rise

Dm   A
Cyanide of an almond
F    C       G
Let him look at your hands, get the angles right
Dm        F       C         A
Ace of spades, Port of Morrow, life is death is life.


F      G     E     F
I saw a photograph of Cologne in ‘27
F      G        E    F
A then a postcard after the bombs in ‘45
F         G       E          F
Must have been a world of evil clowns that let it happen
F      E
But now I recognise in these eyes
        F        G
That you were there and so was I

Instrumental break
Dm F
Dm C A
Dm F C A

(whole break x2)

F     G          E       F
Under my hat it breathes the lines are all imagined
F      G       E          F
A fact of life I must impress on my little girl
F      G        E         F
I know my place amongst the creatures in the pageant
F        E
And there are flowers in the garbage
     F        G
And a skull under your curls


Instrumental break
Dm F
Dm C A
Dm F C A

Repeat instrumental break until fade.


Note: I initially had the verse second part of the verse chords as
Dm        A       C         A
Ace of spades, Port of Morrow, life is death is life.
 for example, with another A in place of the F. It sounded right to me, but I went
