Antje Duvekot - Ragdoll Princes And Junkyard Queens Chords

CAPO: 2nd Fret




INTRO: Am  Em  G  D  C    Am  Em  C  G  D

           G                          Am
So, you've come to this place, you've come a long way
           C                   G
You've got dust in your hair
                         Am                    C       G
And after all this time, you're still crazy as hell


                                  Am
Well, there were ragdoll-princes, junkyard-queens
C                          G
Blessed by the homeless on dirty streets 
                                    Am                D
First they drag you down, then they fall at your feet___


CHORUS:
            Em               C
And all the girls with their curls
           G                 D
With their buttons and their pearls 
                Em
You chased them down
          D                  A
You never cared if they were real 
                  Em              C
They touched your hand, took your rose 
              G
And then they blew away like smoke 
D        Em            C           D     Am  Em  C  G  D
But they sure left you breathless___


         G                Am                     C                  G
Down the road you rambled and you roamed and you carried your home
                                     Am
On the souls of your shoes, you were looking for a truth 
      C                        G
And a love that could put some meat on your bones 


                        Am
But you lost yourself inside those sounds
       C                         G
In the dime store riches and the carnival crowds
                               Am          D
But your shooting star, it was burning out___


CHORUS:
            Em               C
And all the girls with their curls
           G                 D
With their buttons and their pearls 
                Em
You chased them down
          D                  A
You never cared if they were real 
                  Em              C
They touched your hand, took your rose 
              G
And then they blew away like smoke 
D        Em            C           D     
But they sure left you breathless___


BRIDGE:

On the razor blade of freedom 
       A
In the heat of your own flame 
       C                            D
Lies a loneliness Napoleon couldn't cross 

But how can you go back to your fishbowl 
            F
Once you've flown with the phoenix?
        G 
You may never sleep again 
            Em        G        E
Once you've seen that Southern Cross


                ## Key Change - Up 2 Semitones ##


CHORUS:
            F#m              D
And all the girls with their curls
           A                 E
With their buttons and their pearls 
                F#m
You chased them down
          E                  B
You never cared if they were real 
                  F#m             D
They touched your hand, took your rose 
              A
And then they blew away like smoke 
E        F#m           D           E     
But they sure left you breathless___
            F#m           D           E  
Yeah,  they sure left you breathless___
