Bright Eyes
Four Winds
From live performances you can tell this song is played
in standard tuning with a capo on the 3rd fret.
[Intro]
EmC G AmG AmC
                x4
[Verse]
      Em                                          C
Your class, your caste, your country, sect, your name or your tribe
         G                             Am
There's people always dying trying to keep 'em alive
        G                        Am
There's bodies decomposing in containers tonight
        C
In an abandoned building where
    Em                          C
A squatter's made a mural of a Mexican girl
      G                                Am
With fifteen cans of spray paint in a chemical swirl
       G                            Am
She's standing in the ashes at the end of the world
          C
Four winds blowing through her hair
[Chorus]
                Am      D                 Am    D
But when great Satan's gone, the whore of Babylon
          C       G                  C           G
She just can't sustain the pressure where it's placed
     Am
She caves
[Interlude]
Em  C  G  Am  G  Am  C
[Verse]
     Em                                   C
The Bible's blind, the Torah's deaf, the Qu'ran is mute
        G                                 Am
If you burned 'em all together you'd get close to the truth still
         G                          Am
They're pouring over Sanskrit under Ivy League moons
             C
While shadows lengthen in the sun
           Em                            C
Cast on a school of meditation built to soften the times
     G                               Am
And hold us at the center while the spiral unwinds
       G                             Am
It's knocking over fences, crossing property lines
           C
Four winds, cry until it comes
[Chorus]
              Am     D
And it's the sum of man
                  Am     D
Slouching towards Bethlehem
              C       G                 C      G
A heart just can't contain all of that empty space
    Am         D
It breaks, it breaks, (it breaks)
[Interlude]
Em  C  Em  C  Em  C  D
[Verse]
              Em                          C
Well, I went back by rented Cadillac and company jet
        G                        Am
Like a newly orphaned refugee, retracing my steps
        G                      Am
All the way to Cassadega to commune with the dead
                 C
They said, "You'd better look alive"
           Em                        C
And I was off to old Dakota where a genocide sleeps
        G                               Am
In the black hills, the bad lands, the calloused east
   G                    Am
I buried my ballast, I made my peace
               C
With four winds, levelling the pines
[Chorus]
                Am      D                 Am   D
But when great Satan's gone, the whore of Babylon
          C      G                   C     G
She just can't remain with all that outer space
     Am           D          Am         D
She breaks, she breaks, she caves, she caves
Em
