Sinister Kid Chords

(ver. 1)
Black Keys
The basic chords for this song are Am Em Dm, I'm sure you can figure that out based on 
the song how the rhythm goes.  I think it sounds better if you CAPO on the 5th fret 
transposing into the fingerings of Em Bm Am.  You can try what you like.

CAPO 5 (optional)

Intro (Em Bm Am in rhythm with the bass)

Em (palm mute)                 Bm (Bend down entire chord)
Well, the crooks are out
And the streets are gray
You know I wouldn't have it
Any other way, yeah

Em (palm mute)                 Bm (Bend down entire chord)
Your mother's words
They're, they're ringing still
But your mother
Don't pay our bills, yeah

Em              Bm   Am   Em
A sinister kid, is a kid who
Em                 Bm   Am   Em
Runs to meet his maker
Em                         Bm   Am   Em
A drop dead sprint from the day he's born
Em              Bm   Am   Em
Straight into his makers arms

Em                Bm   Am   Em
And that's me, that's me
Em                          Bm   Am   Em
The boy with the broken halo
Em                   Bm   Am   Em
That's me, that's me
Em                       Bm   Am   Em
The devil won't let me be

Em (palm mute)                 Bm (Bend down entire chord)
I got a tortured mind
And my blade is sharp
A bad combination
In the dark

Em (palm mute)                 Bm (Bend down entire chord)
If I kill a man
In the first degree
Baby, would you
Would you flee with me?

(Chorus Repeated as necessary)
