Song: Devil's Arcade
Album: Magic
Here is my interpretation of this song. It's pretty easy. I've tried to
line the chords up with the lyrics, but they may be a little off. Let me
know if anything sounds wrong.
E Bm Remember the morning we dug up your gun D The worms in the barrel, the hanging sun E Bm Those first nervous evenings of perfume and gin D The lost smell on your breath as I helped you get it in F#m D The rush of your lips, the feel of your name F#m A E The beat in your heart, the devil's arcade E Bm You said "Heroes are needed, so heroes get made" D Somebody made a bet, somebody paid E Bm The cool desert morning and nothing to save D Just metal and plastic where your body caved F#m D The slow games of poker with Lieutenant Ray F#m D In the ward with the blue walls, a sea with no name F#m A E Where you lie adrift with the heroes of the devil's arcade Bm F#m You sleep and you dream, your buddies Charlie and James A E And wake with a thick desert dust on your skin
Instrumental
(Verse chords)
E Bm Voice says "don't worry, I'm here D Just whisper the word tomorrow in my ear" E Bm House on a quiet street, a home for the brave D A glorious kingdom with the sun on your face F#M D Rising from a long night as dark as the grave F#m D On a thin chain of next moments and something like faith F#m D On a morning to order a breakfast to make F#m D A bed draped in sunshine, a body that waits F#m D For the touch of your fingers, the end of the day F#m D The beat of your heart, the beat of your heart F#m D The beat of your heart, the beat of your heart F#m D The beat of your heart, the beat of her heart F#m D The beat of your heart, the slow burning away F#m A E Of the bitter fires of the devil's arcade
