Man Man – Whalebones tab
Chords:
Fmin He felt a curse around his neck C7 Like a yoke he knows, he never forgets. G#maj The way she cut through his bed A#min Like a snake would bite through a cave of flesh Fmin But he holds her C7 though she's broken G#maj He swear he don't care A#min where she's been thats the progression throughout most of the song He's tired of being human He wears her close to the bone as though she were his own skin He shoots from the heart instead of the head His mouth and his words they rarely connect He looks to the past and where his tongue's tread And he knows he's meant the opposite But she holds him like an infant Though it breaks her in half to know he'll wake like a man Sold on cold indifference When he reaches for her she's gone She slips like the wind through blackened sails, but Who are we to love at all? I hope you don't mind If I hang on the light post. If I hang on to my hopes oh, this time Although I've been warned I'll probably get burned I'd rather get burned than to not try I hope you don't mind If I hang on the light post I hang on to my hopes all this time 'Cause you won't let it go
