You As You Were Chords

Capo 2nd fret

Standard (EADGBE)

 When you Efall at the rocks

At the bend at the river

 With the G♯mblood from your nose

Running hard on your fingers

 And through Bthe rest of your liAfe

E G♯m B A

 The elEectric charge

Of a change in the weather

 You were G♯mtouching my arm

You were holding a feather

 And then I Bopened my eyes A

 As the C♯mWorld goes racing, suddenly changed

 As the shock of the axe, it leaves you tremblingB

 Like a C♯mbusting shell in the small of your back

 Or a job that's hard on the cast of your little lie B

And an animal life was surging away

 And you were Eback on the road

Through the worst of the Winter

 Through theG♯m Valley of Lies

Passing through like an arrow

 Oh , if your Evision collapsed

And a storm from the river

 Like a G♯mgolden medalion

Clutching tight in your fingers

 But on the Bslope of the edge

 Will you Arecover your life

 You could Estand on the back of a shuddering beam

 With a pistol firing shots into the G♯mair

 You could Erun in the blood of the Sun's hard rays

 You could drive the mountains down into the G♯mbay

 Or go back to the East where it's all so civBilized

 Where I was Aborn to the life

 But I am Eleaving the life

I am leaving the life

I am leaving the life

I am leaving the life

 I am G♯mleaving the life

I am leaving the life

I am leaving the life

I am leaving the life

 I am Bleaving A E
