Very nice song, beautiful lyrics and... only three chords!!
Here is the sequence: G - Am - C - G . It never changes.
VERSE:
GClose skies, taking wAmages,
from the wCays that common gGo.
Of it's frGightening, and it's lAmoneness,
and it's Cout there, searching and stGare.
CHORUS:
GYou've got tGo be [...], to hold it, to love it, to leave it,
Or it wAmon't belong (ahaaaa), to be sComeone's son, just like hGim.
VERSE:
GLook out, all those fAmaces,
That concCeal their crudest thGoughts.
It's disgGusting how alAmive them
Can be trCained to rip you apGart.
CHORUS:
GYou've got tGo be [...], to hold it, to love it, to leave it,
Or it wAmon't belong (ahaaaa), to be sComeone's son, just like hGim.
And yes it's crGeepy, cold, sweet home, sound the clickers,
And it wAmon't be long (ahaaaa), 'till he's nCo-one's son. And it's trGue.
VERSE (II):
I wGanted to go, I wanted to fight.
I wAmanted to get to the top of the white.
I dCid what it could. Now it's thrGough.
I wGanted to crawl, I kneeled down to cry.
I pAmicked myself up, take a lot at the sky.
I was gCiven the room to see it thrGough.
CHORUS [x2]:
GYou've got tGo be [...], to hold it, to love it, to leave it,
Or it wAmon't belong (ahaaaa), to be sComeone's son, just like hGim.
And yes it's crGeepy, cold, sweet home, sound the clickers,
And it wAmon't be long (ahaaaa), 'till he's nCo-one's son. And it's trGue.
