Chords
This is a pretty basic tab of the most obvious chords, it might be missing a bit but you can play along
to it easily and the chorus is fairly accurate.
play around with it and give me feedback if you get any great ideas
G My brown eyes, two pools of mud Em D G Resting in two dark moons, they turn the tide into a flood Em G And the bloodshot lines in the whites map every A road in this town, Em D G All the glare of the city lights, every cul de sac we've talked down G Em Over time they build up the city, and our arguments show it all G Em Every ring road, every motorway, displayed in crease and wrinkle C D Until my face is a map you have folded up one hundred, one thousand times. Em G C G You know it starts pretty rough and ends up even worse, Em G C G And what goes on in between, I try to keep it out of my thoughts G Your blue eyes are like the deepest and the warmest seas Em D G As the salt elevates my body, they float my heart up past my teeth Em G And with the water and the Cypriot sun, would your psoriasis bleach and be gone? Em D G Would it fix the pallor of my skin? Would my freckles all meld into one? G Em Your body above me, sobbing down, my cheeks wet from your tears G Em They extinguish each of the burning thread veins, flow down to my ears C D Now they rest in two tiny reservoirs that overfed the wedded canals Em G C G You know it starts pretty rough and ends up even worse, Em G C G And what goes on in between, I try to keep it out of my thoughts
Break: Am C G Em Am C Em G Am C G Em Am C Em G
C Em G And life, life is a long time, too long to my mind, too long by far Em D Em G Between my waterfalls and your landslides, there's cartography in every scar C Em G Life, life is a long time, too long to my mind, too long by far Em G C G Because it starts pretty rough and ends up even worse, Em G C G And what goes on in between, I try to keep it out of my thoughts Em G C G You know it starts pretty rough and ends up even worse, Em G C G And what goes on in between, I try to keep it out of my thoughts
