Matt Cosgrove - Thrilling Intent by Misc Your Songs
Key:CC| Capo:5fr|
Intro:
C - Em - Am / F - C - GC - E - Am / F - G - CCEm
The fields are full of stunted boars
Am
and twice as many sheep
FC
all of them with vacant smiles
G
grazing like there's nothing wrong
CEmAm
the stars look like they're cut out of the sky
when I lay down to sleep,
FC
tired from the senseless trials
G
that we face to prove we're strong
CEm
That house is made of paper
Am
and this river runs like butter
FC
in the morning they release a vapor
GC
patented to set hearts fluttering
EAmF
don't say a thing if you strong or you have horns or you are wise
G
they'll think it's wrong,
CF
they'll want to e-qua-lize you down
G
to them
(Chorus)
CEm
Chased out of the city
AmF
rabid golems gaining quickly just behind
C
can't sling no legalese
GC
when sherpas murmur sweetly in your mind
EAmF
and if justice isn't all that you had hoped that it would be
G
don't pay it mind,
C
you know what's right and wrong
GC
so smile and disagree
EmAm
and if others find your gender
F
vague and murky at the best,
CG
just drink away your sorrow, heal their wounds
and know you're blessed
CEmAm
It's another perfect day
FCG
to continue our ascent
CEAm
so walk with haste if you choose to stay,
FGC
and ignore the thrilling intent.
G - CG - CG - C (let ring)
CEm
Then just before they catch you
Am
there's a snap and then a flash
FC
you've teleported somewhere else
GC
the man who's made of lies and smiles smiles on
E
No need to yell, dear Ashe,
EmAm
there simply isn't any way they'll reach us here,
E
you've got my word,
CEF
we have at least till dawn.
C
But over there,
Em
atop that hill,
Am
there's more of them,
let's all stay still
(Slower, plucking each string)
CEmAmFC
To merely sneeze condemns us to a grisly fate upon this blasted shore
CEmAmF
(Ashe): 'You idiot, you only sent us twenty feet from where we were
C
before'
CEmAmF
(Markus): Come on now, Ashe, it's not the time or place for you to begin
C
keeping score'
(strumming again, picking up speed)
CEmAm
(Gregor): 'Hey guys, they're closing in, it might not be the time for
FC
talking anymore'
CEm
Another snap, another flash,
Am
you've magically departed,
FC
and it's just before you catch your breath
G
you realize that you're where you started
(Chorus)
CEm
Chased out of the city
AmF
rabid golems gaining quickly just behind
C
can't sling no legalese
GC
when sherpas murmur sweetly in your mind
EAmF
and if justice isn't all that you had hoped that it would be
G
don't pay it mind,
C
you know what's right and wrong
GC
so smile and disagree
EmAm
and if others find your gender
F
vague and murky at the best,
CG
just drink away your sorrows, heal their wounds
and know you're blessed
CEmAm
It's another perfect day
FCG
to continue our ascent
CEAm
so walk with haste if you choose to stay,
FGC
and ignore the thrilling intent.
GC
The Thrilling intent
GC
The Thrilling intent
GC (let ring)
The Thrilling Intent!
