The Lumineers – Nightshade (Guitar)

Em
Some of us love to think of life as a game

C
Others are born into royalty and can never behave

A
Some find a freedom locking men in a cage, oh no

Em
Some priest insisted it's a test of the faith

C
And only holy devotion can keep the devils away

A                                             Em
There's only so much that a man can pray, oh no

C
Oh my love

A             Em
Oh my love

C
Spare my blood

A                  Em
Spare my blood

Em
I saw the footprints in the white of the snow

C
I counted thousands and I was just a rider alone

A
18 degrees and 80 miles from home, oh no

Em
We built a wall to keep the devils at bay

C
A distant army was marching through the night and the day

A
I swore an oath and with my life I would pay, oh no

C
Oh my love

A         Em
Oh my love

C
Spare my blood

C                                A
Nightshade won't you take me away

                   Em                        A
And I could hold my breath for another day

                C              A              Em
But it was all, it was all, for the throne

Em
We were surrounded and the ending was near

C
All of the sudden a ranger arrived, a savior appeared

A
Made it to safety but the devil was here, oh no

C                              A
Nightshade won't you take me away

            Em                           A
And I could hold my breath for another day

              C               A           Em
But it was all, it was all, for the throne
