Duchess chords by Scott Walker

Chords with lyrics

Verse 1

	BB         F#F#  E MajorE          BB
	It's your bicycle bells and your Rembrandt swells

	        F#F#    E MajorE      BB
	Your children alive and still breathing

	EbmEbm       A augmentedA  E MajorE          BB
	And your look of lost when you're coming across

	     F#F#        E MajorE        BB
	Makes me feel like a thief when you're bleeding

	Chorus

	     F#F#   E MajorE       BB      F#F# F#7F#7
	Duchess, Duchess, light up your candles for me

	BB    F#F#   E MajorE       BB      F#F#
	Duchess, Duchess, put all your love back in me

	E MajorE          Badd9Badd9
	I come listening, I touch, touching


	Verse 2

	BB      F#F#   E MajorE           BB
	With the Persian sea running through your veins

	  F#F#       E MajorE      BB
	You shed your names with the seasons

	EbmEbm    A augmentedA     E MajorE        BB
	Still they all return with their last remains

	       F#F#       E MajorE    BB
	And they lay them before you like reasons

	           F#F#  E MajorE       BB
	With your shimmering dress, it says 'no', it says 'yes'

	       F#F#        E MajorE   BB
	It says 'I've nothing left for concealing'

	EbmEbm      A augmentedA     E MajorE       BB
	It's your shiftless flesh and your old girl's grace

	        F#F#        E MajorE    BB
	It's your young girl's face that I'm breathing


	Chorus

	     F#F#   E MajorE       BB       F#F# F#7F#7
	Duchess, Duchess, light up your candles for me

	BB    F#F#   E MajorE    BB        F#F#
	Duchess, Duchess, Duchess, put all the love back in me

	Eadd9Eadd9     Badd9Badd9
