One of my favourite songs by Rome. Get the strumming pattern from the song, the opening is repeatedly
A and low E strummed, but you can play the chords if you like instead.
[Verse]
Amyou were wrong
you let hell invade you and you let Eme go
love Amwants to be both gentle and cruel
you were a foolE, you should have known
Amand would you wear berries in your hair
for this battalEion of lovers?
and would you share thAmis table
set among the stones of your brEothers?
AmI thought I had no wish to protect you, to conquer you
Ebut now I have turned to you
Amso leave death and come to me
you will see, i wilEl leave no scar on you
[Chorus]
yes,for Gyou were meant to be with me, Dhere
for we are built, trained, conditioned to Cdisappear
we shall stay in the shadows, in the meadowEs afire
as thieves for hire
Gand we shall remain invisible, for we travel light
for we do not rush toward the light
and we dance if we Ccan with our eyes closed
all along the Eborders, all along the road
[Verse]
Amand we shall make our movements lighter
like the boys on thEe wire
Amto regain the joy and fierceness
of the essentiEal man
Amcool out here, beside me
cool out in thEe sands of Spain
cool out and Amwash yourself in milk againE  
[Chorus]
Gand now you shall moan and you shall weep
and you shall loathe the other Dcheek
my friend you cant pretend to know life in every breath
Cto wound my pride, to envy death
you didn't come up with this cure and Erest assured
your longings never seemed pure
Gand each time I will come
each time I will be another
Da sinner, a saint, your enemy brother
I shall make you say pClease
EI shall have you on your knees
wir haben unsere welt verloren
was übrig bleibt schleppen wir jetzt in koffern
durch halb europa
an alle welt uns ausgeschenkt!
vom leben unbesiegt
was uns eint ist der verzicht!
yes, for Gyou were meant to be with me, Dhere
for we are built, trained, conditioned to Cdisappear
we shall stay in the shadows, in the meadowEs afire
as thieves for hire
Gand we shall remain invisible, for we travel light
for we do not rush toward thDe light
and we dance if we Ccan with our eyes closed
all along the Eborders, all along the road
Amwe shall make our movements lighter

Chords in this song · guitar

One of my favourite songs by Rome. Get the strumming pattern from the song, the opening is repeatedly

A and low E strummed, but you can play the chords if you like instead.

[Verse]

you were wrong

you let hell invade you and you let me go

love wants to be both gentle and cruel

you were a fool, you should have known

and would you wear berries in your hair

for this battalion of lovers?

and would you share this table

set among the stones of your brothers?

I thought I had no wish to protect you, to conquer you

but now I have turned to you

so leave death and come to me

you will see, i will leave no scar on you

[Chorus]

G D

yes,for you were meant to be with me, here

for we are built, trained, conditioned to disappear

we shall stay in the shadows, in the meadows afire

as thieves for hire

and we shall remain invisible, for we travel light

for we do not rush toward the light

and we dance if we can with our eyes closed

all along the borders, all along the road

[Verse]

and we shall make our movements lighter

like the boys on the wire

to regain the joy and fierceness

of the essential man

cool out here, beside me

cool out in the sands of Spain

Am E

cool out and wash yourself in milk again

[Chorus]

and now you shall moan and you shall weep

and you shall loathe the other cheek

my friend you cant pretend to know life in every breath

to wound my pride, to envy death

you didn't come up with this cure and rest assured

your longings never seemed pure

and each time I will come

each time I will be another

a sinner, a saint, your enemy brother

I shall make you say please

I shall have you on your knees

wir haben unsere welt verloren

was übrig bleibt schleppen wir jetzt in koffern

durch halb europa

an alle welt uns ausgeschenkt!

vom leben unbesiegt

was uns eint ist der verzicht!

G D

yes, for you were meant to be with me, here

for we are built, trained, conditioned to disappear

we shall stay in the shadows, in the meadows afire

as thieves for hire

and we shall remain invisible, for we travel light

for we do not rush toward the light

and we dance if we can with our eyes closed

all along the borders, all along the road

we shall make our movements lighter
