Miserere The Cat Empire
Intro: Gm / Eb F / Bb F Bb F Gm F Bb F Bb F
Do you ever look a[Gm]round
turn your ear to the ground
show your f[Eb]ace to the sky
on a [F]night when the skies echo sou[Bb]nds
from inside of your mind
on the sta[F]ge that you shone
where the sun did[Bb] become yo[Gm]u[F]
and m[Gm]ove with your thoughts
through the sighs and the scenes
of the wo[F]rlds you have seen
and the sights that have been
your ref[Bb]lection in shadows and dreams?[F]
- your reflection in shadows and dreams[Bb] [F]
Did you ever see a m[Gm]an
who did walk down the street
[Eb]white robe with no s[F]hoes on his feet
and on t[Bb]op of his head place a box with two slits
and the si[F]gn from his neck said
'I do not exist'
[Bb] [/] [F]
or a w[F]oman who could not remember her name
did s[Eb]tutter and stutter
[F]again and again
and s[Bb]aw you and called you her son
her eyes said
'my b[F]eing is gone
but still I'm not dead'?
[Bb] [/] [F]
[Gm]Oh mis[Eb]ere[F]re
Misere[Bb]re
[Eb]Miser[F]ere
Misere[Bb]re

Have you ever seen a sound
have you listened to an image
have you ever touched a thought
have you ever tasted nothing
have you ever told a lie
that was true more than truth
because truth it had lied
all its life when it spoke to you?
And what did it say
it is that it is this
this goes here here is there
it is not yes it is
it was dulling your senses
your eyes they were bound
have you ever my friends
been looking around?
And the ot[G]her replies
with a wave of a hand
I am al[Eb]ready here
in this prom[F]ised land
but n[Bb]ot by a god and not by a king
and n[F]ot by a spirit
[Bb]deep from within[F]
I am he[Gm]re
because a miracle's a whim
it's a fl[F]ash of glory
it's an empty tin
and m[Eb]aybe might lets you in
[Bb] [F] [Bb]
not to sa[F]ve you
but to keep on looking-
[Gm]Oh mis[Eb]ere[F]re
Misere[Bb]re
[Eb]Miser[F]ere
Misere[Bb]re
Misere[Gm]re[Eb] [F]
[Eb]Oh m[F]isere[Bb]re
[Eb]Misere[F]re
[Eb]Have you ever
been so h[F]appy that you're sad?
that the li[Bb]ghts turn to stars
and the s[Eb]tars become eyes
and he[F]llos are goodbyes
and the laughs are the sighs
and the show disappears with the note
'until next t[Eb]ime'
[F]Long live l[Bb]iving
if li[Eb]ving can be t[F]his

[F]Do you ever look around
and find what is yet to be f[Bb]ound?
[F] [Bb]
