Amanda Palmer - The Living Room Chords

[Verse 1]
Gm      B      F           Eb
Forty-seven strings are pulled
    Eb       Gm     F    Cm
By this angelic beaten girl
B       F             Gm     Cm
And it breaks our hearts to hear
Eb      Gm     F             Cm
The music that comes out of her.
Eb         Gm         F      Cm
Shoulders hang on folded chairs
Eb         Gm      F       Gm
This will be our church tonight
B        F         Gm     Cm
We have dug our foxholes here
Eb   Gm        F    Cm
Not an atheist in sight.

Cm        Eb      Cm     Eb
Laughing shaking taking oaths
Gm        B           F      Cm
Breaking sacramental cups
    Gm        B       F    Cm
We pour the magic in our coats
Eb       Gm      F          Cm
Thinking it can leave with us.

[Chorus]
Eb                  Gm    F
But it’s a long way out
Eb           B           F
20 steps but it’s so harming
Eb                   Gm    F
When they talk out loud
Eb                  B         F
banter breaks your fingers on me

[Verse 2]
Gm      B      F          Cm
I’ve been breathing evil air
Eb       Gm     F       Cm
Sharing needles with the sky
B          F      Gm     Cm
Looking up remembering
 Eb         Gm     F          C
Regina said they're just old light.
Gm         F     Cm   Eb
But you somehow understood
   Eb   Gm  F    Cm
My oversaturated skin
B         F      Gm     Cm
You raised your hand up to my neck
     Eb        Gm     F    Cm
And played me like a theremin

Cm     Eb       Cm     Eb
I see London I see France
Gm           B           F      Cm
And all the things that we won’t do
    Gm    B       F         Cm
And if I never leave this chair
 Eb      Gm     F          Cm
Maybe I can go with you.

[Chorus]
Eb                     Gm    F
But it’s the long way out
Eb            B           F
20 steps but it’s so harming
Eb                   Gm    F
When they talk out loud
Eb                   B        F
banter breaks your fingers on me
Eb               Gm    F
It’s a long way out
Eb                B           F
Past the bar and past the awning
Eb              Gm    F
Past the easy crowd
Eb             B           F
Back into the end

[Verse 3]
Gm      B      F     Cm
I am finding solace here
Eb       Gm     F    Cm
In this unexpected place
B        F      Gm     Cm
Like a startled dying man
Eb         Gm     F          Cm
Kneels in prayer just in case
Gm    B        F              Cm
And while the night sky sadly lit
    Eb     Gm        F            Cm
All that we were sleeping through
B      F          Gm     Cm
Death took my friend Benjamin
Eb     Gm        F            Cm
But he left his keys with you

Gm      B      F         Cm
So I’ll kiss the air instead
Eb      Gm     F         Cm
As not to disturb your sleep
B           F      Gm     Cm
And if you never wake my love
 Eb   Gm       F         Cm
Maybe you can come with me

[Chorus]
Eb                     Gm    F
But it’s the wrong way out
Eb             B           F
20 steps but it’s so harming
Eb                 Gm    F
When they talk out loud
Eb                 B           F
banter breaks your fingers on me
Eb                 Gm    F
It’s the wrong way out
Eb                B           F
Past the bar and past the awning
Eb              Gm    F
Past the easy crowd
Eb             B           F
Back into the end of harmony
Eb             B           F
Back into the end of harmony
Eb             B           F
Back into the end of harmony
Eb            B    F   Cm B Cm
Back into the eeeeeeeeeeeend
