Chords

Off his new album "Hospital Handshakes". Played in a combination of finger-picking and strumming. He uses occasional hammer-on's and pull-offs and changes the bass note on the chords a bit, but I am not capturing quite all of that. Hope you like it! Intro: Bm (hammer on D-string 2nd fret to 4th fret each phrase)
         Bm                      D
There's sawdust and shavings for rent here

    A                           Bm
And power lines through all the summer woods my dear

        Bm                      D
Bit I'm hoping and that hope is linked to your tears

    A                 Bm
Let Love be your only teacher

  G                            Bm
Andromeda, the sea is restless tonight

    A                                     Bm
Why do this Love and Madness look so much alike

  G                            Bm
Andromeda, the sea is restless tonight

         A                            Bm
You have no idea the power on the darkside

          Bm                         D
There's a voice without words if you listen

           A                      Bm
If you can keep the crows and the nightingales quite

      Bm                  D
It's driving you mad with each revelation

    A                 Bm
Let Love be your only teacher

    Bm                       D
You walk from the tavern out into the streets

A                         Bm
Drinking your passion and stumble in disgrace

    Bm                      D
And close both your eyes to see anthing 

     A                          Bm
But keep the door of your heart open

  G                            Bm
Andromeda, the sea is restless tonight

    A                                     Bm
Why do this Love and Madness look so much alike

  G                            Bm
Andromeda, the sea is restless tonight
A Bm (Bass note on the A string goes A|--2--4--| D You have no idea the power on the darkside
     D                            A              Bm
I'll give you my heart if you cna keep the door open

  D                      A                Bm
I lost the thread of the story that I was telling
