Chords

From the album "Notes of Blue" Words and Music by Jay Farrar Tab by Tim Prizer ([email protected]) ***On the record, Farrar plays this in an alternate tuning (a la Nick Drake). However, this is how the band plays it live. These chords are taken from watching Farrar play the song live in Asheville, NC on 3/14/2017. [Intro] Em A D G/B Em A D [Verse]
D                                       G/B
Don't get down when the cavalry doesn't arrive

               Em                              D
That's only in Hollywood and they didn't get it right

D                                   Em
There will be damage, there will be hell to pay

            A                     D
Light after darkness, that is the way
[Verse]
D                               G/B
The air is colder closer to the ground

          Em                     D
Find your footing and leave your doubts

D                                   Em
There will be damage, there will be hell to pay

            A                     D
Light after darkness, that is the way
[Verse]
D                                   G/B
Promise the world to each other, to obey

              Em                      D
In the end it matters, it's worth the fight

D                                   Em
There will be damage, there will be hell to pay

            A                     D
Light after darkness, that is the way
[Verse]
D                                       G/B
We all move mountains that stand in the way

             Em                        D
Just part of being here, making things right

D                                   Em
There will be damage, there will be hell to pay

            A                     D
Light after darkness, that is the way
