Dave Hause - The Shine Chords

Dave Hause – The Shine

G#m  E  x3
B

B
It was exponential Memphis from a thousand feet 
            G#m
But when we landed we were black and blue 
B
Running through the city with apocalypse eyes 
     E                                F#
Just miles of streets with nothing to do 

     B
Your warm heart had been frozen by some cold ideas 
             G#m
You tried to tell me but it came out wrong 
  B
I changed my strings, shaved my face and
         E                      F#     
Locked myself into the tower of song 
        E                      F#
It gets lonely in the tower of song 

    G#m        E              B      F#
But I, I don't stutter when I sing 
G#m     E               B       F#
My melodies grow little wings 
G#m     E             B              F#
Huddled here grinding tears into red wine
G#m      E                 B 
Meet the darkness with the shine 

B
We've got all our sons and daughters virgin blood on our hands 
               G#m
They'll be the offspring of these ugly wars 
          B
But if we kill off all our devils, will our angels die? 
        E                       F#
I found love living life like a whore 

   B
So here's some trusty chords and a melody 
           G#m
A pound of flesh for the brutal throng 
        B
For the heretics and walking dead and red headed girls
         E                       F# 
      E                  F#
I'm a fool in a tower of song 
         E                       F#
Make the lonely fool smile, sing along 

G#m            E               B     F#
Cause we don't stutter when we sing 
G#m     E                B       F#
Our melodies grow little wings 
G#m     E             B              F#
Huddled here grinding tears into red wine 
G#m      E                 B     F#
Meet the darkness with the shine 
G#m      E                 B     F#
Meet the darkness with the shine
G#m      E                 B
Meet the darkness with the shine
