[Intro]
Em C (2x)
[Verse 1]
Em D
The streets are covered in chalk, the shops are boarded up
Em D
The bodies are carried back down from the square.
Em D
He begins to wonder, if it always was this hot
Em D
or is it just the clothes that he now wears?
[Chorus]
Em C G C D
Napoleon sheds his skin in the summer when the sun is high
Em C G D
He never knew when to quit when to stop
Em C
or when to say die.
[Verse 2]
Em D
Pick the bones, get a tan, or wander underground
Em D
She would not have left him anyway
Em
Wait by the sea, wait in the sun
D
As if the time stood still
Em
Did he get involved
D
in whichever side that paid?
[Chorus]
Em C G C D
Napoleon sheds his skin in the summer when the sun is high
Em C G D
He never knew when to quit when to stop
Em D
or when to say die.
[Bridge]

C Em
Ohhh..The time stands still behind the distant gates
C Em
Time moves on outside in the sun
C Em
Then he wonders which side he's really on
C
But he doesn't care, it's all gray in there
D
and he just wants to get back to her
[Chorus]
Em C G C D
Napoleon sheds his skin in the summer when the sun is high
Em C G D
He never knew when to quit when to stop
Em D
or when to say die.
Em C G C
She waits for him by the wharf by the sea
D
Where they used to go
Em C G
She sings a song that they'd sing
D Em
then she waits for the echo...
C Em
Napoleon...sheds his skin
C Em
Napoleon...sheds his skin
C Em
Napoleon...sheds his skin
