Blood – Middle-East (CAPO ON 4TH FRET)
[Intro] (Main Riff x2)
[Verse 1]
C G/C Am Em C
Older brother, restless soul, lie down.
C G/C Am Em C
Lie for a while with your ear against the earth.
C G/C Am Em C
You can hear your sister sleep talking,
G/C Am Em C
Say ‘you’re hair is long but not long enough to reach
[Chorus]
C G C G
Home to me, But your beard, Someday might be.
[Bridge]
Em7 Cadd9 G
And she’ll wake up in a cold sweat on the floor
Em7 Cadd9 G
Next to a family portrait drawn when you were four
Em7 Cadd9 G Em7
And beside a jar of two cent coins that are no good no more
Cadd9 G
She’ll lay it aside
(Main Riff x2)
[Verse 2]
C G/C Am Em C
Older father, weary soul, you’ll drive
G/C Am Em C
Back to the home you made on the mountainside
G/C Am Em C
With that ugly, terrible thing
G/C Am
Those papers for divorce
Em C
And a lonely ring,
[Chorus 2]
G
A lonely ring
C
Sit on your porch
G
And pluck your strings
[Bridge 2]
Em7 Cadd9 G
Oh, and you’ll find somebody you can blame
Em7 Cadd9 G
And you’ll follow the creek that runs out into the sea
Em7 Cadd9 G
And you’ll find the peace of the Lord.
(Main Riff x2)
[Verse 3] (Main riff)
C G/C Am Em C
Grandfather, weary soul, you’ll fly
G/C Am Em C
Over your life once more before you die
G/C Am Em
Since our grandma passed away
C G/C Am Em C
You’ve waited for forever and a day
[Chorus 3] (Strum)
G
Just to die,
C
And someday soon
G
You will die
[Bridge 3] (Strum bass note then rest of chord)
Em7 Cadd9 G
It was the only woman you ever loved
Em7 Cadd9 G
That got burnt by the sun too often when she was young
Em7 Cadd9 G
And the cancer spread and it ran into her body and her blood
Em7 Cadd9 G-------
And there’s nothing you can do about it now
[Outro] (Same as verse - strumming)
C G/C Am Em C x4
G C G x2 (same as chorus)
[Outro] G C G x3 (One strum)
