Hope In The Air Chords

(ver. 1)
Laura Marling
Intro: Fm 

Fm/Ab      Gm7        Fm
There is a man that I know,
    Fm/Ab     Gm7             Fm
for seventeen years, he never spoke.
Db                      Fm
Guess he had nothing to say,
   Fm/Ab      Gm7      Gm7b5     Fm
he opened his mouth on Judgement Day.


  Fm/Ab         Gm7       Fm 
I listened with all of my might,
        Fm/Ab         Gm7         Fm
but was scared by the look in his eyes.
     Db                    Fm
Like he'd already lost the fight,
    Fm/Ab        Gm7  Gm7b5   Fm
and there was no hope ever in sight. 


   Db
No hope in the air, 
   Fm
no hope in the water,
             Gm7
not even for me, 
Gm7b5             Fm
your last serving daughter.


Eb       Cm7       Ab        Fm7
Why fear death, be scared of living,
    Bbm                  Fm/Ab
our hearts are small and ever thinning.
Bbm              Fm/Ab
There is no hope ever of winning,
    Ab       Gm7       Gm7b5     Fm
oh, why fear death, be scared of living.


Fm/Ab  Gm7      Fm
I have seen men provoked,
    Fm/Ab       Gm7        Fm
and I have seen lives revoked,
      Db                    Fm
and I looked at my life and choked.
Fm/Ab         Gm7  Gm7b5  Fm
From there no more ever I spoke.


Fm/Ab   Gm7          Fm
I can't give up that quick.
   Fm/Ab     Gm7          Fm
My life is a candle and a wick.
    Db                     Fm 
You can put it out but you can't break it down,
       Fm/Ab      Gm7           Fm
in the end we are waiting to be lit.


        Db
There's hope in the air, 
        Fm
there's hope in the water,
              Gm7
but sadly not me,
     Gm7b5        Fm
your last serving daughter.


Eb/G                 Fm
A friend is a friend forever,
      Db                         Fm
and a good one will never leave, never.
                Fm/Ab      Gm7           Gm7b5          Fm
But you've have never been south of what grows off your mouth,
         Fm/Ab      Bbm7        Fm
you will never understand, ever.


          Fm/Ab        Gm7     Fm
You speak minds handed down to you,
       Fm/Ab       Gm7          Fm
by the lies handed down by your truth,
         Db                       Fm
and your angels will dance at your will,
     Fm/Ab     Gm7        Fm
will mask your scrambling youth.


  Fm/Ab          Gm7     Fm
I forgave you your short comings,
      Fm/Ab      Gm7      Fm
and ignored your childish behaviour.
       Db      
Laid a kiss on your head,
        Fm                     Fm/Ab    Gm7      Fm
and before I left said,
