Chords

[Intro] Bm G D A x2 [Verse 1]
   Bm             D
Forgotten scars remind us of

G                 Bm
Too much war, too little love

  G                    D
Beneath the fault-line truth to burn

   F               C
Within the page so much to learn
[Verse 2]
Bm            D
Wounded birds look to us

G             Bm
Who can heal? Who to trust

      G                  D
Bring down the giants old and new

       F               C        G
Strike up the band and waltz on through
[Chorus]
      D              F#m
I was shaking with a fever

         Bm                   A
When the last good horse went down

        G             D
We were just a couple dancing

        A
Where a thousand kings were crowned

D              F#m
Shaking with a fever

  Bm                  A
Before the white flag flew

        G               D
And the ballroom opened up to us

        F       G         D         Dsus4  D
And the dancers danced on through
[Interlude] Bm G D A x2 [Verse 3]
Bm             D
Love in ruins, torn apart

G              Bm
Victims of the careless heart

G              D
Skating on the cold grey ice

  F                C
Before the flood toward the light
[Verse 4]
Bm             D
Muddy boots to shiny shoes

G                   Bm
Headlines screaming out the news

     G                D
From dirt and damp to hardwood floors

  F                   C      G
Beyond the burned out broken walls
[Chorus]
      D              F#m
I was shaking with a fever

         Bm                   A
When the last good horse went down

        G             D
We were just a couple dancing

        A
Where a thousand kings were crowned

D              F#m
Shaking with a fever

  Bm                  A
Before the white flag flew

        G               D
And the ballroom opened up to us

        F       G         D         Dsus4  D
And the dancers danced on through
