Ben Howard - The Defeat Chords

Intro]
C    E    x4

[Verse 1]
G
There is no rush when you don't belong
C
Turns out we don't all
           Am              E
Fight like dogs in the end
C
Most of us want to roll out
C
Roll under the grass
E
You are limbless, cartoon
E
No bridge in your song
C
Spirulina won't cure my heartbreak
C
I was a dreamer when I learned to take
E
In between her and the fireplace
C
There are factors that conditioned me Something in the canopy
E
Clearly

[Verse 2]
C
And the blank ones
C
Cartwheel out of the furnace
                        E
The mould never cracked you see
                E
The girls in St Denis
                     C
Still sleep on their backs
             C
Understood a fact
                           E
When you spoke in all your marvelous ideologies
                    Am
The world is always at ease, at ease, at ease
          E
Don't you see

[Verse 3]
        C
And the deaths on the highways
     C
From drinking at casinos
        E
Feel so natural
            E
Every day a dice roll
              E
Every way you gamble
                     C
Where is something I can handle?
                      Am
And the world void of Petrov, our savior
        Am
We are taught to savour
               C
Everyone else's failures
       E
Endlessly

[Verse 4]
         C
Even the greatest
              C
The very very greatest, gave up, tapped out
         E
Told all you f**kers to lie down
          E
Yet still you found
                  C
Cathedrals of dissent
                      C
Where does the robber go
                      E
Where does the robber go to repent?
     C
Tell me

[Instrumental]
E    C    E

[Verse 5]
G              Am
Till there you were
                      C
You wouldn't buy a round
              Am
For your best friend
                    E
See, it's trickled down
                  Am
On you I don't depend
                  C
There you go then bye
             Am
Another end, bye
          Am
Infinitum bye
E            Am        C
There you go then, bye
Am                       E
  With such a heavy sound

[Verse 6]
                C
There is no rush when you don't belong
          Am                           C
Turns out we don't all fight like dogs in the end
                  Am
Most of us want to roll out
    Am
Roll under the grass
                E
You're limbless, cartoon
             E
No bridge in your song
              Am
Make me wonder, again
                E
Or make me learn, to pretend
              Am
Make me wonder, again
                E
Or make me learn,
C
To pretend
Am
Make me wonder
C
Again
                E
Or make me learn, to pretend
