Manchester Orchestra - I Was A Lid chords
Highlighted Show chord diagrams
These are just the basic chords if you want to see something quick for reference or do an acoustic version. For the lead, check out the other tab here on UG. Just move everything a fret up because that one is written in standard tuning. The lyrics here are just what I could make out because there's no official lyric sheet or anything. Tuning: half-step down Bm D x2 Bm D I was a lid on a house we barely speak of Bm D Folded again I could see myself inside Bm D And I was amazed how a God could know my first name Bm D And you were amazed at the difference in my speech 2, 3, 4 Bm D Bm D So what of your words, did I know you would deceive me? Bm D And one better in for a calmness in my side Bm D So I made a way from a top east fractioned godspeed Bm D And what a debate do you still know my full name Em G Bm Em G D Bm D And I was the one that decided to light you on fire Bm D And you were a tree with a root that was wrapped in my brain Bm D So build me a sign make me know that you speak of a light Bm D How dirty you plead, dirty you plead, dirty you plead, please [ Tab from: http://www.guitaretab.com/m/manchester-orchestra/324542.html ] Em G Bm You know how you thought I ditched your house, I'm faking causes Em G D And I needn't a word I am the saddest version yet Em G Bm So what is the price I pay to be this wrong and stop one? Em G D I was the man that claimed to see but now I'm not Bm D x2 Bm D I am afraid of the good and bad beneath me Bm D So give me a sign for the angels on my feet Bm D I was a man yeah I swear I was a man Bm D So keep me alive for the angels in my feet Bm D Cause I am a way for a man to rid his skin clean Bm D So send me a sign for the ones who need my seed Em G Bm Em G D Em G Bm And I had a dream I killed our families Em G D And you were the one I hoped you'd blame Em G Bm And I felt a baby in your stomach Em G D I knew who he was but he had no name (Acoustic or not, you can end it like this): |-------------------------------------| |-------------------------------------| |-------------------------------------| |-------------------------------------| |-------------------------------------| |-7-9-10-10/9/7-5-2---7-9-10-10/9/7-5-|  |
