Chords

Here's a slow, slow death by Los Campesinos! I could say; only strum once for the verse chords, but that would be boring. Do what you want and have fun. [Verse 1]
F
We felt a chill from the breeze move in from the east, London pat its own back

C
Those with the means for the megaphone will always provide us the soundtrack

F
I started to diarise the coming of flies when gloom is descending

C
So when it's back round again I know it's a false start and not an ending

F
Some days I struggle to move in elephant shoes, unwilling commuter

C
Anxiety in my chest, heart under duress, taps out of sharpshooter

F
Preoccupied now for days, by nostalgia waves, I hated the first time

C
A gambler's fallacy: The more I repeat, I won't be the punchline
[Bridge]
F
You

G
On a lilo

       Am
Are an island

       C         Em
Of the pacific

         F
And then me, me, me

     G
I am face down

     Am
In a puddle

       C    E
On the high street
[Chorus]
F                  C                 Am
I got your initials inside a heart tattoo

                     C         G
We two in vermillion, we two a lovers' coup

F                   C                 Am
I got your initials inside a heart tattoo

                     C         G                 
We two in vermillion, we two a lovers' coup

F                    C
I know little, but I promise:

          Am     G     F   Em     Dm
There's a slow, slow death if you want it

F
if you want it
[Verse 2]
F
In time I will have to lie, these memories are mine, not in fact my father's

C
A schoolboy hero replaced, domestic disgrace, a sad scak, a martyr

F
We here are common as dirt, three lions on our shirt, with high expectations

C
Absolve this land of a Queen who feasts while we wean a small, hopeless nation
[Bridge]
F
You

G
On a lilo

       Am
Are an island

       C         Em
Of the pacific

         F
And then me, me, me

     G
I am face down

     Am
In a puddle

       C    E
On the high street
[Chorus]
F                  C                 Am
I got your initials inside a heart tattoo

                     C         G
We two in vermillion, we two a lovers' coup

F                   C                 Am
I got your initials inside a heart tattoo

                     C         G                 
We two in vermillion, we two a lovers' coup

F                    C
I know little, but I promise:

          Am     G     F   Em     Dm
There's a slow, slow death if you want it

F
Yeah, I want it
