Elephants Chords

(ver. 1)
Ruben Hein
INTRO   Bm7 C#m7 (4x)


    Bm7                      C#m7
The elephants left through a hole in the wall 
       Bm7               C#m7                              Am9 D9 Gm9 C9
And it can't be right to pretend that it all didn't happen 
              Bm9 C#m7
'Cause it did 


Bm7                 C#m7
She turned away and nobody spoke 
       Bm7                   C#m7
Of the china and windows the elephants broke 
             Am9 D9 Gm9 C9
Just silence
              Bm9 C#m7
and that's it 


Em7                  F#m7
And it seems that we both forgot 
Em9                    F#m9
We try to be something we are not 
Em7                  F#m7
But tonight we were shown the truth 
      Gmaj7                  F#/A#
'Cause that's what elephants do 
                       Bm7 C#m7 (4x)
Oh, we're so mistaken 


   Bm7            C#m7
We cover the mess with small talk 
       Bm7                     C#m7                       Am9 D9 Gm9 C9
And we can't even see it's our own heart that is breaking 
                    Bm7 C#m7
Breaking the rules 


    Bm7                 C#m7
The elephants will come back 
                   Bm7              C#m7                           Am9 D9 Gm9 C9
And they sure don't like to be ignored like they have been before 
                       Bm7 C#m7
Like a bunch of fools 


Em7                  F#m7
And it seems that we both forgot 
Em9                    F#m9
We try to be something we are not 
Em7             F#m7
But if we can't live with the truth 
    Gmaj7                 F#/A#
The elephants cannot live too 
                        F#m7 Gmaj7 Em11 (4x)
And elephants die alone 


PIANO INTERLUDE   Bm7 C#m7    C#m7 Cm7 (3x)   Bm7


Em7                  F#m7
So let us start to remember
Em7                    F#m7
All the things that we want to do 
Em7                     F#m7
We should just skip the food over candlelight 

Gmaj7                          Bmaj7
I know I want to crush all the tables with you 
C#m7                       G#m7
I want to dance just like elephants do 
Gmaj7
I want to wreck everything 
       Bmaj7                         D7
That I once held for a place that is home
Gmaj7                A 
Now I know that it's you that is home


Bm7 C#m7
