The Fire And The Thud Artic Monkeys
Nice song to play and easy to sing
It's just Fm and with the little finger play this
B----4---5---4
I call it Fm²
chorus:
then it goes Fm D C (*2) before going back to the verse
Fm²
Fm²
you showed me my tommorow
Fm²
beside a box of matches
Fm²
a welcome threating stir/stare
Fm²
my hopes of being stolen
Fm²
might just ring true
Fm²
depends who you prefer
If its true your gonna run away
tell me where I'll meet you there
(*2)
Fm²
Am I snapping the excitement?
Fm²
If i pack away the laughter
Fm²
and tell you how it feels
Fm²
And does burden come to meet ya
Fm²
If i have questions of the feature
Fm²
that rolls on your dream reel
The day after you stole my heart
Everyting I touched told me it would be better shared with you
(*2)
And your hiding in my soup
and the book reveals your face
and as you're splashing in my eyelid
the concentration continually breaks
I did request the mark you cast
It didnt heal as fast
I hear your voice in silences
The teasing of the fire be followed by the thud
(*2)
In the jostling crowd your not allowed to tell the truth and the photo booths
Fm² Fm²
A liar
Fm²
And the sharpened explanations
Fm² Fm²
but theres no screaming reason to enquire
I'd like to poke them in their prying eyes with things theyve never seen if
it smacks them in their temples
