The War on Drugs - In chains Album: A deeper understanding CAPO 4 Intro: G Em x3 Verse 1: G Goin' out the way I always do Em Callin' out your name D Tryin' not to hate myself C For gettin' in the middle And shining every light upon it
Verse 2: G Em Still I miss the way you’d hold me close in a cold wind D I caught you in our room staring at the light I’d been up all night C Is this life and we’re just living it? Bridge: Am Em D Still I wanna celebrate our love Verse 3: G I’ve been rollin' like a sixteen I can die on the floor Em I’ve been shackled and delivered D There’s a girl out there with silence in her eyes C Her truth is in the dark Bridge 2: D C And I see you comin' in view Bm Yeah, I need you Am I’m comin' in two G In view Chorus: C G D Em C G D Ain’t no wind that I could feel in a fleetin' rain C G D Turn around and rip my heart Em C G D Then look at it and say how you broke away C G D Em C Ain’t no way to elevate to another line G D With nowhere to go C G D Ain’t no chains to hold you in Em C To hold you to G D To losing you Instrumental: G Em Verse 4: G Hiding from an enemy When something inside me died Em It’s hard to see real clear these days With darkness on my mind D As I stare into the ocean floor And I wonder where I once was C Was I fallin' through the air tonight Then crumble into your arms? G Is this love? Em Are you sure? D C Is it something you can control? G I’m retired Em I’m in chains D I’m in love C I’m in pain Verse 5: G All these changes everywhere Just go ahead and take my hand Em Hold me close, now let me go Try and understand D I believe in all the power In doing what we can do C We can try and learn to make it through Then come out the other side Bridge 3: D C I don’t see you at all comin' in view Bm Am How do we decide what we can do? Bm I don't read your mind Am Gimme truth G Em D C
