Black Skies

 
              
 
Intro:   E     G#7/D#     C#m      A  - B   (2x)
 
E          G#7/D#          C#m                 A    -  B 
Down that road there's a man who's lived his whole life  
E          G#7/D#          C#m                 A    -  B 
Inside a rubber shoe he doesn't know what to do 
E          G#7/D#          C#m                 A    -  B 
And young girls spend their lives calling him outside  
E          G#7/D#          C#m                 A    -  B 
With a bag of coins he doesn't know what to do 
E            G#7/D#      C#m           A    -  B 
When the sun shines like butter cup he laces up  
E           G#7/D#           C#m              A    -  B 
His tiny home and makes for a new life in the city 
 
 
 
E             G#7/D#         C#m  -   G#7       A    -  C 
Forgetting the black skies open your heart show us who you are  
E             G#7/D#         C#m  -  G#7       A    -  C    (C) 
Forgetting the black skies open your heart show us who you are 
 
Post Chorus 
E      G#7/D#      C#m     A    -  B 
Nah nah nah nah nah nah nah nah nah 
E      G#7/D#      C#m     A    -  B 
Nah nah nah nah nah nah nah nah nah 
 
verse 2 
 
E           G#7/D#      C#m               A    -  B 
All night I waste, so much time signing dotted lines  
E           G#7/D#      C#m               A    -  B 
In the bank each day, oh yes I do silly me  
E           G#7/D#      C#m               A    -  B 
And i see young men  waste their youth acting all uncool in the  
E           G#7/D#      C#m               A    -  B 
back of a bar somewhere deep down in the city 
 
Chorus x2 
 
Bridge 
 
C# 
C#             E                G# 
And when the policeman comes for him   
            G#                 C# 
I hope he's got his piece of paper  
                     E           G# 
So he can prove that he is who he is 
                  G#            C# 
He's alive and nobody could say different 
           E                 G# 
It'd be a shame if you knew no one  
                  G#             C# 
And you have to piss him back to nowhere 
    E        G#      G# 
to nowhere to nowhere 
 
Outro
