Snow Patrol – The President (Guitar)

     C
I've run to ground 

     Am            G               F         C
I've run from everyone that I have ever known 

    C
I'm aching cold 

    Am              G              F          C
I'm aching from the bones the very blood of me 

         Am                                   G
And it's broke before you know it, before you knew what it was for 

        F                                 C
All you know is you can't fix it, and you wish you'd listened more 

        Am                                G
To your instincts, to your family, to the wisdom you'd ignored 

        F                        C     G
Are you finally gonna ask us for help? 

     C
I've crashed to earth 

        Am            G                F         C
But I'd fallen for so long that it was just relief 

  C
I saw your face 

   Am            G               F           C
In everyone that looked me in my drunken eyes 

         Am                                   G
And it's broke before you know it, before you knew what it was for 

        F                                 C
All you know is you can't fix it, and you wish you'd listened more 

        Am                                G
To your instincts, to your family, to the wisdom you'd ignored 

         F                        C     G
When you finally gonna ask us for help? 

      Am                                G
I can see you at the front gate, as you wait on my return 

    F                                   C
The years have blurred to eons, but the tears have never dried 

            Am                          G
But I'm not coming to you like this, so battered down and sad 

       F                       C
I will take the road forgotten again.
