The Waves Villagers
Villagers – The Waves (acoustic)
I got the chords from this video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_GdjFqR9RZg
Em-Esus4 = alternate between Em and Esus4
There are wave[Em-Esus4]s up in the di[G]amond sky
Stronger than you an[D]d I
I’m a wave[Em-Esus4], I break through the barrier[G] reef
Cut through the c[D]arbon sea, approaching the s[D/C]hore
[Em-Esus4]Look at the sky, look at the trees, man, it’s all the same t[G]o me
Look at the cars, look at the birds and all of these invented words[D]
One body’s dying breath is another’s birth
[D/C]What are you running from? What are you running from?
[Em-Esus4]Sister jewelry, brother judging, you are recognized this grudge[G]
Buried deep beneath the sands of these ridiculous demands
[D]No time for innocence, or sitting on the fence
[D/C]What are you gonna do? What are you gonna…
( Tab from: http://www.guitartabs.cc/tabs/v/villagers/the_waves_acoustic_crd.html )
When the wave[G]s cover the coasta[G/F#]l plains
The tents and the car[F]s and the trains
And the t[C]race of honey bees sanitaries[G]
Of well insulated dignitaries[G/F#]
All screaming of the mem[F]ory of the human love
For any[C]thing, or anyone
[Em-Esus4]Look at the birds, look at the bees, madam, it’s all the same to me[G]
Look at the girls, look at the gold gathered, beat and bought and sold[D]
One man’s innocence is another’s chance
[D/C]What were you thinking of? What were you thinking of?
[Em-Esus4]Now please let me boil it down to th[G]is, my son
[D]This party’s getting wet, but it ain’t over yet
[D/C]So what is it gonna be? What is it gonna be? What is it gonna be?
Just le[G]t the waves cover the coa[G/F#]stal plains
The fear and guil[F]t and the pain
And the tr[C]ace of honey bee jealousy
[G]Of well insulated bigotry[G/F#]
And if you don’t a[F]gree
You better get back inside your [C]cave
’cause we’re all dancing with the [Em]waves
Up in the di[G]amond sky
Stronger than you an[D]d I
I’m a wave[D/C]
I break through the bar[Em]rier reef
Cut through the ca[G]rbon sea
Approaching the shore (18x): D D/C Em G (repeat)
Last chord: D/C
