Pond – Edge Of The World Pt 1 (Guitar)

Fmaj7              Gm7
In the silence of our absence,

Fmaj7     Gm7
Rings a sacred word,

Ebmaj7                Ab               F
What a pity that it won't be heard.

Fmaj7                    Gm7
We're all just a waste of good meat,

Fmaj7         Gm7
In a godless world,

Ebmaj7                  Ab
Throw my carcass in a wheelie bin and

           F
won't you send a nice message to my girl?

Gm      D     A#               D#     A#     D
How can you smile you must be sick or mad to stay on Earth,

G           D      F     C        D#    A#    C      D
A dream of Escher, Kafka and all seven sins of Perth

Cm                D
There hangs a chandelier

Cm                       D
There go twelve million sparks

Cm                                             D
Welcome to the polished steel room of Earthly pleasures

Cm                       D
Welcome to the dark

Cm
There's still a national park across the water from

       D             D# - F
Your parents house

C               Fmaj7
Would you give yourself a tombstone?

C                  Fmaj7
Would Cardinal Pell?

 C                   Bm
I don't even recognise my home,

     E
We've built our own layer of hell.

Gmaj7                   D
And the sun will hang and wait,

C               Em
for the next parade,

D               A
And the echo of us will fade,

Gmaj7               D
Erase all traces of colonial past,

C                         Em
We've been here the whole time,

D                    A
Just as long as the Woodside's fine.

Gmaj7     D
We fly out, we fly in,

C                            Em
For three whole weeks of carnal sin,

D                      A
But the ice and the iron is wearing me thin...

Gmaj7            D
Lest We Forget, lest we regret,

C          Em
Our bloody past,

D                        A
How long can the boomtown last?
