Margot & the Nuclear So and So's – A Light On A Hill (Guitar)

Em7             D/F#
    That's no way to live

    Csus2           G        D6/F#
All tangled up like balls of string

Em7           D/F#
    And we woke at dawn

    Csus2                 G        D6/F#
And watched the sun glide over the hill

Em7           D/F#
    I just said the first

      Csus2             G       D6/F#
Three words that popped into my head

Em7          D/F#
    Let me off the bus;

    Csus2                     G                D6/F#
I'm tired and sore and should probably change clothes

Am7                      C/B
    And the circuits are blown

            C
My woman is cold

                 G          D6/F#
Our children are stoned and worthless

Am7                 C/B                  C
    All waiting for you to tell them the truth.

               G          D6/F#        Em7
The truth is a line, that you'll never use

Em7            D/F#
    And her dignity

Csus2                  G          D6/F#
Shown so bright like a light on a hill

Em7              D/F#
    And she burned for me

       Csus2          G        D6/F#
And no other man came near the flame

Em7             D/F#
    And bad country songs

    Csus2                  G              D6/F#
the deafening twang of the rich-white-kid blues

Em7           D/F#
    You can own the stage

        Csus2                  G            D6/F#
But the lights and glares will not make you real

Am7                 C/B                   C
    She whispers to me, I was meant to be free

                     G        D6/F#
This life that we've built is deadly

Am7                    C/B                        C
    She crawls from my bed, with a comb cross her head

                  G         D6/F#          Em7
She crawls to the train and drives herself home
