Robert Pollard - The Blondes Chords

[Intro]
Cadd9 D    Cadd9 D Am
Cadd9 D    Cadd9 D Am
Cadd9 D Am Cadd9 D Am
 
[Verse 1]
Cadd9                     D          Am
 All exposed your gentle face in the sun
Cadd9    C/B          E
 Grab a mask and run away
Cadd9              D          Am
 To where opportunities bear repeat
   Bm            E
To start and complete
     Bm        Cadd9
What mirrors deceive
                       D
When competing for the blondes
     Cadd9                     Am
The burden of the girls nobody goes for
 
[Pre-Chorus]
Cadd9                     D       Am
Let's be callous as the legacy demands
Cadd9                       Bm       E
 How much can you think you know everyone?
    Bm           C          D
How much can you show if to pay?
   Am     D
To go or stay?
 
[Chorus]
          G
Where you know
         Cadd9
You will rise every morning
          A    Bm  C     G
Where you wait for me to run
             Cadd9
Like distant tagalongs
Like loyal companions
A    Bm   C    G
Wait for me to run
 
[Interlude]
G
Cadd9 D Am Cadd9 D Am
 
[Verse 2]
Cadd9                    D
 On your birthday grab a mask
     Am Cadd9    C/B          E
Run away quickly and be born again
Cadd9                   D                 Am
 Every instance as you glide through the year
     Bm          E
The cost is all clear
     Bm          Cadd9
The price is all tears
                      D
When defeated by the blondes
  Cadd9                         Am
Regrets of the boys no one will wait for
 
[Pre-Chorus]
Cadd9                    D         Am
 Within reason for what faculties remain
Cadd9                  Bm     E
 Time is forcing us to go everyone
     Bm          C             D
And each with a hand you will take
    Am            D
The bed you will make
 
[Chorus]
         G
When you know
          Cadd9
You will rise every morning
        A
And you wait
Bm  C    G
For we arrive
             Cadd9
Content like pioneers
Like royal women
A    Bm  C       G
Dead but still alive
 
[Outro]
G
