Rachael Yamagata - Elephants chords

Highlighted       Show chord diagrams
Capo on 3rd fret

       G
If the elephants have past lives
        C2
Yet are destined to always remember
        Em7
It’s no wonder how they scream
             C2
Like you and I, they must have some temper
        Am7
And I’m dreaming of them on the plains
G
Dirtying up their beds
Am7
Watching for some sign of rain
   G
To cool their hot heads
        Em7
And how dare that you send me that card
         G                    C2
When I’m doing all that I can do
        G               Em7
You are forcing me to remember
           C2         D           Em   
When all I want is to just forget you
[ Tab from: http://www.guitaretab.com/r/rachael-yamagata/262527.html ]
       G
If the tiger shall protect her young
     C2
Then tell me how did you slip by
       Em7
All my instincts have failed me for once
            C2
I must have somehow slept the whole night
        Am7
And I’m dreaming of them with their kill
G
Tearing it all apart
Am7
Blood dripping from their lips
G
Teeth sinking into heart
        Em7
And how dare that you say you will call
         G                         C2
When you know I need some peace of mind
       G                          Em7
If you had to take sides with the animals
          C2	     D          Em
Won’t you do it with one who is kind

Instrumental: D    Am    D

       G
If the hawks in the trees need the dead
          C2
If you’re living, you don’t stand a chance
      Em7   
For a time though you share the same bed
          C2
There are only two ends to this dance
        Am7
You can flee with your wounds just in time
   G
Or lie there as he feeds
Am7
Watching yourself ripped to shreds
G
Laughing as you bleed
       Em7
So for those of you falling in love
        G                           C2
Keep it kind, keep it good, keep it right
          G                    Em7
Throw yourself in the midst of danger
         C2      D       Em
But keep one eye open at night
