Текст песни Octoberman — Run From Safety + аккорды для гитары
Вступление
FYI: I don't know if the lyrics are 100% accurate.
Note: During the little breaks between verses,
as well as the 2nd half of the chorus,
it's fun to play around with hammer-ons on the
3rd & 4th string, 2nd fret, to make sound like
the melody of the chorus :o)
Capo II
Intro: C Em Am F (x2)
Verse 1: C
Em Am
These double entendres and bills that we’ve laundered
F C
these mountains are molehills and the gypsy boys wander
Em Am
in search of their first love, in castles up high
F C Em Am F
when pressed upon it, these words are just lies
Verse 2: C
Em Am
It’s proof I’m awake the the truth I can’t break
F C
as long as you take a hold of my neck
Em Am
we strangle each word, till it all sounds absurd
F C Em Am F
and then your hearing get blurred, ‘cause sounds are all we got
Verse 3: C
Em Am
Love is top drawer, like an old pair of socks
F C
neatly tucked away, that my grandmother bought me
Em Am
with the savings she had, every Christmas morn
F C Em Am F
and now I’m feeling so bad, ‘cause all my socks are torn up
Verse 4: C
Em Am
These judges and juries, convene in a hurry
F C
but there’s no need to worry, ‘cause their sans can’t hurt me
Em Am
and the powers they’ve got, oh they seem like a lot
F C Em Am F
oh I just ain’t enough to stop the meaningful stuff
Verse 5: C
Em Am
So keep dressing yourselves, one leg at a time
F C
keep stacking those shelves with empty bottles of wine
Em Am
and this basement we’re in, it’s a fool-worthy mess
F C Em Am F
we’re all living in sin and we couldn’t care less
Verse 6: C
Em Am
This windstorm a-pissin', it's quite the conniption
F C
the soul jurisdiction, we all bleed with conviction
Em Am
wrestling demons, on an empty platform
F
and our elders are screaming
Em
“why won’t you come back home
Am
why won’t you come back home
F
why can’t you come back home”
C
“Well I don’t think so”
Em
“Why can’t you come back home
Am F
we need you to come back home"
Chorus: C
Em Am
As long as we run from safety
F C
we’ll find a way out here maybe
Em Am
as long as we run from safety
F
we’ll find a way out here
C
we’ll find a way out here maybe
Em Am F C
as long as we run from safety, we’ll find a way out here maybe
Em Am F
as long as we run from safety, we’ll find a way out here maybe
End on C
