The Gaslight Anthem - Red Violins Chords

            C         
There is no use to holler, no use to cry.
      F                               C
Twenty pounds of curses came to visit me tonight.
 
Salt for all the cuts, blankets for the cold.
           F                            C
Prayers to keep the devil far away from those I love.
And there were red violins, playing in my dreams.
        F                      C          
One for me and two for me, and one at Jesus' feet.
    G            F                 C
And one I only reach to for sympathy.

           Am                 F
And if you want it, then you want it.
                 C                G
For when you're falling on your knees.
            Am               F
I seen you howling now, you water at the mouth.
           C                  G
I seen you fawn and faint in need.
           F         G                C
Are there red violins playing you to sleep?

C
Chariot swing low, if you come for me.
F                                      C
Ain't it now, the strangest sound we call on for relief?
Look at the all these people clapping steady to the beat,
        F                         C  
Of the ambulances on their way to me?

          Am               F
So if you wanna, then you wanna.
           C                 G
Everybody pays the price to feed.
                   Am                        F
And since you're howling now, you're foaming at the mouth
                  C                     G
And since you're struck right off your feet.
           F       G
I'll play red violins?

             F            G
And you are now of my existence,
                C                Am
You're part of that which still remains.
            F              G
And you're lingering like fingered strings,
           C                  Am
I seem to call on to feel the pain.
    C       G       C      G
On red violins? on red violins.

           Am              F
And if you wanna, then you wanna.
          C                        G
Can't you see me crawling at your feet?
            Am                       F
You see me howling now, I'm foaming at the mouth.
             C              G
Come on and grieve for my disease?
                Am  F  C  G              Am   F   C  G
And there were red violins playing in my dreams.
           Am  F  C  G                Am   F   C  G
There were red violins playing in my dreams.
           Am  F  C  G
There were red violins.
           Am  F  C  G
There were red violins.
           Am  F  C  G
There were red violins.
           Am  F  C  G                 C
There were red violins playing in my dreams.
