this song is beautiful and always gets stuck in my head, so I thought I'd finally sit down and learn it. a lot

of their songs are tuned half a step down so I thought I'd play it that way, but it obviously doesn't have to

be. have fun!

[Intro]

[Verse]

C Fmaj7

You were brave as a chessboard queen

But the shoe didn’t fit your feet

Fmaj7 C C7

Cover the mouth of the Earth’s great cough

Am Fmaj7 C

You can’t always get what you want

[Verse]

Fmaj7

So you lie in the driveway snow

'Til you’re white as a bed sheet ghost

Fmaj7 C C7

Bathed in the light of a star long dead

Am Fmaj7 C

No one can tell how it ends

[Chorus]

If you’re blind to love

Why don't you say it, love?

It doesn’t amount to much

You're a grail without the blood

If you’re blind to me

Why do you say you see?

Shouldn’t it always be

Clear to us?

[Verse]

Fmaj7

Did you carve out a place in the world?

Were your white little bones of a bird

Fmaj7 C C7

Crushed like a husk in the Great Deceiver's mouth?

Am Fmaj7 C

I hope it’s all working out

[Chorus]

Cause if you’re blind to love

You shouldn’t try to love

It doesn’t amount to much

You're a holy with no ghost

And if you’re blind to me

Why do you try to see?

Shouldn’t it always be

Obvious?

[Outro]

F A

Proud like a hunter with a bow

Am C

Cowed like a prisoner below

I don’t sleep so well

Bb Am G F

I woke up here on the crowded seats of a bus

Am G Am

I was a husk
