Sarah Jarosz – Shankill Butchers chords

[INTRO]
Am  C  Am 

[Verse 1]  
                    FThe shankill butchers ride tonight
    EYou better shut your windows tight
        Am                                  FThey're sharpening their cleavers and their knives
    EAnd taking all their whiskey by the pint


[Chorus]
                 Am'Cause everybody knows
       F                        AmIf you don't mind your mother's words
  Am               FA wicked wind will blow
     G                 AmYour ribbons from your curls
                          FEverybody moan, everybody shake
    E                N.C.The shankill butchers wanna catch you
     AmAwake

[Verse 2]
     Am                          FThey used to be just like me and you
     EThey used to be sweet little boys
    Am                       FBut something went horribly askew
    ENow killing is their only source of joy


[Chorus]
                 Am'Cause everybody knows
       F                        AmIf you don't mind your mother's words
  Am               FA wicked wind will blow
     G                 AmYour ribbons from your curls
                          FEverybody moan, everybody shake
    E                N.C.The shankill butchers wanna catch you
     AmAwake


[Verse 3]
                             FThe shankill butchers on the rise
   EThey're waiting till the dead of night
        Am                                 FThey're picking at their fingers with their knives
    EAnd wiping off their cleavers on their thighs


[Chorus]
                 Am'Cause everybody knows...
       F                        AmIf you don't mind your mother's words
  Am               FA wicked wind will blow
     G                 AmYour ribbons from your curls
                          FEverybody moan, everybody shake


[Outro]
EThe shankill butchers wanna catch you
EThe shankill butchers wanna cut you
EThe shankill butchers wanna catch you
AmAwake
AmAwake
AmAwake
AmAwake
