King Creosote - Leaf Piece Chords

[Intro]
Bb  C  Am  Dm  Bb  C  Dm
 
[Verse 1]
             Bb    C     Dm
I'm clinging on to my homeland
   Bb              C               Dm
My fingers clawing earth, peat and sand
   Bb                   C
My back's still hurting bad
       Am             Dm
But my eyes are still attached
     Bb             C       Dm
To a vivid dream of lousing times
        Bb            C
And the promise of my leaf piece
       Am            Dm
In the furrows of my back
          Bb   C   Dm
And in my laughter lines
 
[Bridge]
C    Bb  F  Dm [x2]
 
[Verse 2]
C            Bb              F        Dm
  I hear the songs my father sang
C                Bb                F     Dm
  But I have but half the voice he had
C            Bb                F     Dm
  I keep it harnessed rein it in
C                  Bb               F     Dm
  Until the sun it melts on the horizon
C                    Bb         F      Dm
  That's when I clap eyes on my lass
C                Bb             F     Dm
  And I find I'm singing like a lark
C             Bb                       F       Dm
  My voice is calloused and my back is choked
C                    Bb                  F     Dm
  And out of earthen clods my heart will soar
C                      Bb
  For now my tongue is held
                  F      Dm
And my wheesht is haud
 
[Bridge]
C     Bb   F   Dm
 
[Outro]
        C                Bb
But for now my tongue is held
                  F
And my wheesht is haud
