G
After the forest fire

Among the black trees
Bm
Among the carcasses

I found your gold key
G
And when your father called

Hid in the deadwood
Bm
And all the birds flew up

I thought they understood


[Chorus]
C
Uh oh, your hands were tied

Uh oh, the storm had come
G
Uh oh, with midnight eyes

Uh oh, we played with guns
C
Uh oh, your hands were tied

Uh oh, the storm had come
Bm
Uh oh, midnight eyes
D                        G
Uh oh, we played with guns.


[Verse]
G
It was the day before

The day before this
Bm
And we had party plans

And party dresses
G
Out on a crowded street

And I talked a man down
Bm
He wanted peace in death

He wore a gold crown


[Chorus]
C
Uh oh, your hands were tied

Uh oh, the storm had come
G
Uh oh, with midnight eyes

Uh oh, we played with guns
C
Uh oh, your hands were tied

Uh oh, the storm had come
Bm
Uh oh, with midnight eyes
D                        G
Uh oh, we played with guns.

[Bridge]
G  Bm  G

[Chorus]
C
Uh oh, your hands were tied

Uh oh, the storm had come
G
Uh oh, with midnight eyes

Uh oh, we played with guns
C
Uh oh, your hands were tied

Uh oh, the storm had come
Bm
Uh oh, with midnight eyes
D                        G
Uh oh, we played with guns.


UNTILTED HIDDEN TRACK
Beautiful, existential elegy following the last track on the album 'Unicorn'.

[Outro]
C                        Dm
The pivot that we circle round
                   Em
Find something to hold
                  F
And learn to be afraid
         G         C
While we wait for more.
                          Dm
You made me never want to lie
                Em
Course I have before
               F
Everything polarised
           G         C
And now we wait for more.
                    Dm
Honouring our wild devotion
                  Em
Awash in morning warmth
                    F
It sleeps a distant notion
           G         C
And now we wait for more.
                           Dm
I'm clearing out my flat today
                     Em
And taking off the doors
                F
No history, no gates,
   G         C
We wait for more.
                   Dm
Baby we could go away
                       Em
Between the night and dawn
                   F
Your life ahead in frames
   G         C
We wait for more.
                     Dm
All the traits we dislike
                     Em
We count them as our own
                F
Sick of being unkind
           G         C
And now we wait for more.
                        Dm
Everything you'll ever dream
                  Em
Someone dreamed before
                      F
Won't you chase them, please
   G         C
We wait for more.
