Lines On Palms Chords

(ver. 2)
Josh Pyke
Josh Pyke- Lines on Palms.
this is a great song by an amazing Australian artist. This isn't how he plays it but it 
does sound the same.
Capo on 1, standard tuning, chords relative to capo.
At the end of Gsus2 chord add 3rd fret on b string.


D5              D5
sometimes I know I become
D5                  D5               Gsus2
all that's weak in a man and weak in a boy  but

 G     D/F#       Em      D
 I keep trying and I won't quit and
 Em        D       C    Bm  A      A
 that must be worth some-thing more  than a
 A                A                  A              
G5    Gsus2
strong man who believes that there's nothing left to try for  and

 G       D/F#   Em     D
 I can be cold I know I know but a
 Em         D          C       Bm
 woman is a warm breath on the back of your
A                    A                   D5
neck and a warm belly pressed against yours   and oh-hoh-

CHORUS:
G        D               A7            G
hoh-oh we need to feel the sum of all our parts are
G        D                 A7            E7
more than what's laid out in lines upon our palms al-
G         D                A7                 E7  G
though our hands are tied we move as though they are___    and

VERSE:
D5                  D5
there's one house in every town that
D5                   D5             Gsus2
everyone fears and ev'ryone steers clear  and

 G      D/F#  Em        D
 I don't wanna live like that I
 Em    D   C          Bm      A  A
 wanna live somewhere more like you   by the
A            A                 A            G5  Gsus2
sea where the cliffs keep sentry watching over me     and

 G         D/F#      Em      D
 it can get rough out there I know but a
 Em         D           C         Bm
 woman is a sail that re-mains unfurled so stay a-
A                      A                 D5
head of the wind man or you won't catch her  and oh-hoh-

CHORUS-LONG:
G        D               A7           G
  we need to feel the sum of all our parts are
G        D                 A7            E7
more than what's laid out in lines upon our palms al-
G         D                A7                 E7     G
       G
though our hands are tied we move as though they are until we're bound by
E           E  D5  D5
  branching out

VERSE-SHORT:
D5              D5
sometimes I know where I am and
D5                D5                  Gsus2
what I'm doing and what things might be-come but

G          D/F#         Em       D
 that always seems such a fleeting state for the re-
 Em             D     C         Bm
 mainder of the time I feel that I am a
A                    A
babe in the woods out for deliverance and

CODA:
G              G
I can be cold I know I know but a
E                      E
woman is a warm breath on the back of your
G                          A7         D
neck and a warm belly pressed against yours
