Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds – Straight To You (Ukulele)

C                           G
All the towers of ivory are crumbling 

        C                            G
And the swallows have sharpened their beaks 

C      G     G                   C
This is the time of our great undoing 

            G                    C
This is the time that I'll come running 

            Am
Straight to you 

             C
For I am captured 

            Am
Straight to you 

            C
For I am captured 

          G        C
One more time 

C                          G
The light in our window is fading 

    C                     G
The candle gutters on the ledge 

     C   G  G               C
Well now sorrow, it comes a-stealing 

         G                          C
And I'll cry, girl, but I'll come a-running 

            Am
Straight to you

            C
For I am captured 

            Am
Straight to you 

            C
For I am captured 

        G     C
Once again 

C                    G
Gone are the days of rainbows 

C                               G
Gone are the nights of swinging from the stars 

C   G   G                       C
For the sea will swallow up the mountains 

        G                                C
And the sky will throw thunder-bolts and sparks 

            Am
Straight at you 

              C
But I'll come a-running 

            Am
Straight to you 

                C
But I'll come a-running 

         G      C
One more time 

C                         G
Heaven has denied us it's kingdom 

    C                               G
The saints are drunk howling at the moon 

    C  G  G                    C
The chariots of angels are colliding 

           G                        C
Well, I'll run, babe, but I'll come running 

            Am
Straight to you 

            C
For I am captured 

            Am
Straight to you

           C
For I am captured 

          G
One more time
