G                   Bm                C                 G
     Take all the things I've bought you, leave all the rest alone

       G                Bm      C              D
     Marble skins turn human, people fade to grey
      G              Bm                  C             D
     Put your head into my hands, we'll make them go away
      G                Bm               C           D
     As you're crying softly, you won't ever be disturbed
      G               Bm             C                  G
     Red on pink the sun will sink, have you even heard

D(add B)  D        Em7              C
           And the colours take me down

D(add B)  D        Em7           C
           It's no reason to be sad

D(add B)  D         Em7              C
           And you leave without a sound

D(add B)  D         Em7           F
           It's no reason to be glad

      G               Bm       C            D
     Salty tears are wasted, children lie awake
      G              Bm                  C                D
     Put your head into my hands, don't let your spirit break
       G                    Bm        C                    D
     Black smoke from the chimneys, white smoke from the hills
     G              Bm      C                        G
     Everything is moving, but we're standing still

D(add B)  D        Em7              C
           And the colours take me down

D(add B)  D        Em7           C
           It's no reason to be sad

D(add B)  D         Em7              C
           And you leave without a sound

D(add B)  D         Em7           F
           It's no reason to be glad

      G            Bm       C              D
     Celebrations fading, boats upon the waves
      G              Bm            C             D
     Put your head into my hands, trying to be brave
          G            Bm              C                 D
     The carnival has packed up, the storm has left us peace
      G               Bm           C                  G
     Poppies sleep undamaged, we drive into the east

D(add B)  D        Em7              C
           And the colours take me down

D(add B)  D        Em7           C
           It's no reason to be sad

D(add B)  D         Em7              C
           And you leave without a sound
