Lumineers - Nightshade Chords

[Verse 1]
Am
Some of us love to think of life as a game
F
Others are born into royalty and can never behave
Dm                          F         E       Am
Some find a freedom locking men in a cage, oh no
Am
Some priest insisted it's a test of the faith
F
And only holy devotion can keep the devils away
Dm                          F        E       Am
There's only so much that a man can pray, oh no
 
 
[Refrain]
        F
Oh, my love
        Dm  Am
Oh, my love
           F
Spare my blood
           Dm   Am
Spare my blood
 
 
[Verse 2]
Am
I saw the footprints in the white of the snow
F
I counted thousands and I was just a rider alone
Dm                          F           E       Am
Eighteen degrees and eighty miles from home, oh no
Am
We built a wall to keep the devils at bay
F
A distant army was marching through the night and the day
Dm                          F             E      Am
I swore an oath and with my life I would pay, oh no
 
 
[Refrain]
        F
Oh, my love
        Dm   Am
Oh, my love
           F
Spare my blood
 
 
[Chorus]
F                     Dm
Nightshade, won't you take me away?
          Am                  C
And I can hold my breath for another day
           F           Dm            Am
But it was all, it was all for the throne
 
 
[Verse 3]
Am
We were surrounded and the ending was near
F
All of the sudden, a ranger arrived, a savior appeared
Dm                         F          E       Am
Made it to safety, but the devil was here, oh no
 
 
[Chorus]
        F
Oh, my love
F                     Dm
Nightshade, won't you take me away?
          Am                   C
And I can hold my breath for another day
           F           Dm             Am
But it was all, it was all for the throne
