The Dear Hunter – A Night On The Town (Guitar)

Em
I've been misplaced in so many ways

Bbm                                   Em
Broken battlegrounds, hiding veils of delicate deceit

    Am
Yet here I breathe

Em
Teeth still gleam from holy water

      C
While millions of lambs migrate to the slaughter

   B                    Em                    Am
My head in a bag and my hands are bound to my feet

D
And voices sing:

B
"Were we erased like common thieves?

Em
Tossed in a cell to feast with the fleas

B                                  C
All because we never had written a word."

            G
What will I see, tonight in these eyes

    D                         C             
And what will i know when the morning comes?

Em  D           G
    What will I see, tonight in these eyes

    D                         C             Em  D
And what will I know when the morning comes?

B                                       Em
Must we remind of exchanges existing so long ago?

B
Would we arrive at agreeable musings

Em             D
Sentimental or just confusing

   B
We lost what we had but we took it back

Am                     G          Em
Friends in the gutter, enjoy one another

     B                                                C
Just give yourself to the dust and the dirt where you stand

            G
What will I see, tonight in these eyes

    D                         C             
And what will i know when the morning comes?

Em  D           G
    What will I see, tonight in these eyes

    D                         C             
And what will I know when the morning comes?

    Em  D       Am
I'm not who you think I am

              C                   B
And even if I thought you'd known

                   Am
I never would have told you so

    G
And more alarming

             C        A    D
I would have done the very same

           C          A         D
Would have stole more than your name

           C          A          D             Am
Would have cursed and bought the world on your shoulders

             B
I was in the wrong place

    Em         D         G
And what's the worst I'd see

                                C
By giving myself to the earth below me

    Em          D       G                             C
Not knowing how far I'd fall, by casting away the ordinary

     G        D     G                                    C
Just how long can I stay in illusions formed here long before me?

    G        D     G                                   C
And how long can I breathe this stolen breath here underneath?

Em                                      C
  There's that subtle smile that did me in

D   Em
She moves...

           C
An agony reminds where I've been

D   Em
She breathes

                    C
"I'd never let this happen again."

Am                 Em
Where's your heart?

C             G
Mimicking the patriarch

Am            C
She's naive...
