Lenders In The Temple Ukulele

(ver. 1)
Conor Oberst And The Mystic Valley Band
There are already accurate chords for this song, but this 
is just an easier fingering.

Capo 6

Am              E
short delay the parrot blues,
F             C         
little voices mimick you,
 E                            F     
it's not so hard to make that sound,
Am                  E
so watch your back, the Ides of March,
F                  C         
cut your hair like Joan of Arc, 
E                                    F
disguise your will, they'll find you out,
              E
and when they do...
     F  G
look out

--
              F                  G
there's money lenders inside the temple
           F                        C
the circus tiger's gonna break your heart
             E                F
something so wild turned into paper
     Dm                        G
if I loved you, well that's my fault

--

Am              E    
a b**chin heat, the alpha male,   
F                   C          
not something she'd ever tell,
E                           F  
except when she got deathly high,
    Am               E         
and out it came like summer rain,
F                   C        
washed the cars and everything,
E                            F
felt clean for just a little while
      E               F     G
a telephone, we drunk dialed

--

             F                     G
the starving children they ain't got no mother
        F                            C
there's pink flamingos living in the mall
           E                  F
I'd give a fortune to your infomercial
        Dm                          G
if just somebody would just take my call
        Dm   G
take my call,
        Dm   G
take my call,

C
hello? 
                               F
patterns in my mind now moving slow
                               C
sorrow all across the surface rolls
                               G
smoothing out the edges of the stone
                                     Dm                               
the lights are out where'd everybody go?
F   E
hello?

--

Am                 E                           
erase yourself and you'll be free
F                 C
mendola destroyed by the sea
E                     F
all we are is colored sand
Am                 E
so pay to ride the ferris wheel
F              C              E                       F
smile all that you can feel is gratitude for what has been
           E   F   G
cuz it did not happen

--

              F                  G
there's money lenders inside the temple
           F                        C
the circus tiger's gonna break your heart
             E              F
something so wild turned into paper
       Dm                         G
If you loved me, well that's your fault
              F                  G
there's money lenders inside the temple
             F                  G
this crystal city's gonna fall apart
               E               F
when all their power turns into vapor,
     Dm                      G
If I loved you well that's my fault,
               Dm    G
well that's my fault
               Dm    G
well that's my fault
