Inside Your Hell Tonight Acoustic Chords

(ver. 1)
Strawbs
[Intro]
C  G  Dm  Am  C  G  F  C   F C   Am G C
 
[Verse]
           G        Dm     Am      C
Storms are breaking in California
         G            F       C      G
From the East Coast a twister comes
         B7     Em       F      C
She lies waiting for her lover
           G               F     C
A crumpled rag-doll that's cast away
          F        C      G
Then they call her on the phone
        F         C       G
Telling lies that she can see through
           Am     Em         F      C
So they'll live inside their hell tonight
        F    C    Am G         F   C      F C   Am G C
Knowing they were saving their own skins
 
[Verse]
        G     Dm      Am       C
Signing up for high adventure
          G         F   C     G
Young and innocent, so alive
          B7   Em        F           C
Mules and asses held the high ground
          G                F       C
While the lions stood like sitting ducks
          F          C           G
Then they drove them through the fire
       F       C       G
With a cry of "We know better"
           Am     Em         F      C
So they'll live inside their hell tonight
        F    C    Am G         F   C      F C   Am G C
Knowing they were saving their own skins
 
[Verse]
        G     Dm    Am        C
Sailing oceans to a new life
            G          F       C    G
Friends and family are tied as one
          B7   Em          F        C
Captain's table rocks with laughter
        G           F        C
Glasses raised to a job well done
        F        C      G
And the market place is waiting
        F          C        G
For the souls that can't be bought
           Am     Em         F      C
So they'll burn inside their hell tonight
        F    C    Am G    F  C      F C   Am G C
Knowing they were shaming mankind
 
[Instrumental]
C  G  Dm  Am  C  G  F  C   F C   Am G C
 
[Verse]
       G        Dm    Am           C
Like a dead bird in a green field
          G            F    C    G
Still and peaceful the body lay
        B7     Em       F         C
I don't need to witness something
      G           F       C
To confirm all my deepest fears
      F       C     G
But I climb into my car
      F        C      G
And I stop the help arriving
        Am     Em      F      C
So I'll live inside my hell tonight
        F C   Am G F   C
Knowing I was only gloating
