Carter Tanton – Murderous Joy
GmStaBbndiEbng in the wake of a sleeping pill now
Staying up for days in the poppy fields now
CSo Bbif EbI see you on the streets and I don't call,
Know my mind see-saws
GmIn BbbacEbk beat time I understand now
The joker and the ace and how to play my hand now
CSo BbwhEben the lion doth roar I creep on by
And make another copy of the key to the sky
BbI nAmeed G#juEbst a little time
To sing you a line
You won't soon forget
About a wide eyed boy
And the murderous joy
When words to a song he sets
Give me just a little time
Gm
GmSo BbbluEbsh baby blush when the sun goes down now
I feel half dead in my murder ballad crown now
CI'Bbll Ebcome alive in the final hour
Though my mind see-saws...
GmStaBbndiEbng in the wake of a sleeping pill now
Staying up for days in the poppy fields now
CSo Bbif EbI see you on the streets and I don't call,
I made another copy of the key to the sky
Know my mind see-saws
BbI nAmeed G#juEbst a little time
To sing you a line
You won't soon forget
About the wide eyed boy
And the murderous joy
When words to a song he sets
BbI nAmeed G#juEbst a little time
To sing you a line
You won't soon forget
About the wide eyed boy
And the murderous joy
When words to a song he sets
Give me just a little time
I need just a little time

Carter Tanton – Murderous Joy

Gm Bb Eb

Standing in the wake of a sleeping pill now

Staying up for days in the poppy fields now

C Bb Eb

So if I see you on the streets and I don't call,

Know my mind see-saws

Gm Bb Eb

In back beat time I understand now

The joker and the ace and how to play my hand now

C Bb Eb

So when the lion doth roar I creep on by

And make another copy of the key to the sky

Bb Am G# Eb

I need just a little time

To sing you a line

You won't soon forget

About a wide eyed boy

And the murderous joy

When words to a song he sets

Give me just a little time

Gm Bb Eb

So blush baby blush when the sun goes down now

I feel half dead in my murder ballad crown now

C Bb Eb

I'll come alive in the final hour

Though my mind see-saws...

Gm Bb Eb

Standing in the wake of a sleeping pill now

Staying up for days in the poppy fields now

C Bb Eb

So if I see you on the streets and I don't call,

I made another copy of the key to the sky

Know my mind see-saws

Bb Am G# Eb

I need just a little time

To sing you a line

You won't soon forget

About the wide eyed boy

And the murderous joy

When words to a song he sets

Bb Am G# Eb

I need just a little time

To sing you a line

You won't soon forget

About the wide eyed boy

And the murderous joy

When words to a song he sets

Give me just a little time

I need just a little time
