Chords

[Verse 1] N.C. When I was a little boy, I looked under the stairs N.C. The king and the pawns were caught unawares
                B7          Em          B7
Standing in the shadows, a whisperer to be

Em                    B7       Em           B7
Just fishing in the darkness of possibilities
[Chorus]
                 Em   D
Just look at you now

G   B              Em  D
Yeah, look at you now

G    B                Em  B7
Ooh, oh, look at you now
Em B7 x4 [Verse 2]
Em            B7               Em              B7
   Among such style and grace,    our highest hopes

Em                B7                Em     B7
   None standing still, the running joke

Em                B7               Em             B7
   Where goes the warm embrace, it fades without return

     Em                   B7            Em     B7
It lives to slip through fingertips and burn
[Verse 1]
C     Em         C        Em    C
   I don't care what you think anymore

         Em      D
Doesn't matter anyway

Joan of Arc, victim, perpetrator

G D Em x2 [Verse 2]
      G       D      Em          G    D    Em
Thе truth is just a piece of clay

       G          D          Em                G    D    C
You sculpt, you change, you hide, then you erase

     Em           C               Em       C
You think you're brave? All the plans you made

           Em           D
Behind my back and from far away

 C         Em      C               Em
Truth is, face to face, you're a coward

Sharp as a paper machete, yeah
B Em B [Verse 3]
C      D          Em            C
Now I know you'd use anything, anyone

    D        Em
To make yourself look clean

    C        D         Em
In sickness, no vows mean anything

    C     D
So long, cruelty

    C         D
So long, too late

    C        D   D#  D
So long, my love is dead
