Elbow - Charge
Intro:
Gm Dm Gm Dm
   GmI am electric 
DmWith a bottle in me, got a bottle in me.
   GmAnd glory be these fuckers are igDmnoring me. 
I?m from another Gmcentury.
I am a preacher
DmWhen I?ve got it on me, and I?ve got it on me
   GmAnd glory be these fuckers are igDmnoring me 
We never learn from Gmhistory
FHey
I am the beau who loved her so in every Gsong
And I designed that little mystery on your Ftongue
I?ve broken jaws protecting laws to keep you Gfree
I made your day so take a seat by me
Gm Dm Gm Dm
   GmI am an old tree
DmGonna talk my jaw free, someone come and get me
AnGmother night beside myself would Dmfinish me
Give us G & T and Gmsympathy
I am the diehard 
Dmwith an empty dance card propping up a young bar
   GmI?m pouring oil in double time Dmupon the troubled rising tide inside of me
Upon my Gmhistory
FHey
I am the beau who loved her so in every Gsong
And I designed that little mystery on your Ftongue
I?ve broken jaws protecting laws to keep you Gfree
I made your day so take a seat by me
Gm Dm Gm Dm Gm Dm Gm Dm Gm
FHey (piano, piano, piano)
GHey (piano, piano, piano)
FHey (piano, piano, piano)
GHey (piano, piano, piano)
FHey
I am the beau who loved her so in every Gsong
And I designed that little mystery on your Ftongue
I?ve broken jaws protecting laws to keep you Gfree
I made your day so take a seat by me
Gm Dm Gm Dm Gm

Elbow - Charge

Intro:

Gm Dm Gm Dm

I am electric

With a bottle in me, got a bottle in me.

Gm Dm

And glory be these fuckers are ignoring me.

I?m from another century.

I am a preacher

When I?ve got it on me, and I?ve got it on me

Gm Dm

And glory be these fuckers are ignoring me

We never learn from history

Hey

I am the beau who loved her so in every song

And I designed that little mystery on your tongue

I?ve broken jaws protecting laws to keep you free

I made your day so take a seat by me

Gm Dm Gm Dm

I am an old tree

Gonna talk my jaw free, someone come and get me

Gm Dm

Another night beside myself would finish me

Give us G & T and sympathy

I am the diehard

with an empty dance card propping up a young bar

Gm Dm

I?m pouring oil in double time upon the troubled rising tide inside of me

Upon my history

Hey

I am the beau who loved her so in every song

And I designed that little mystery on your tongue

I?ve broken jaws protecting laws to keep you free

I made your day so take a seat by me

Gm Dm Gm Dm Gm Dm Gm Dm Gm

Hey (piano, piano, piano)

Hey

I am the beau who loved her so in every song

And I designed that little mystery on your tongue

I?ve broken jaws protecting laws to keep you free

I made your day so take a seat by me

Gm Dm Gm Dm Gm
