Charlie Darwin – The Low Anthem
C F
Set the sails I feel the winds a’stirring
Am G
Toward the bright horizon set the way
C F
Cast your wreckless dreams upon our Mayflower
G F C
Haven from the world and her decay
C F
And who could heed the words of Charlie Darwin
Am G
Fighting for a system built to fail
C F
Spooning water from their broken vessels
G F C
As far as I can see there is no land
F C E7 Am G
Oh my god, the water’sall around us
F C G C
Oh my god, it’s all around
F C E7 Am C F G C
C F
And who could heed the words of Charlie Darwin
Am G
The lords of war just profit from decay
C F
And trade their children’s promise for the jingle
G F C
The way we trade our hard earned time for pay
F C E7 Am G
Oh my god, the water’s cold and shapeless
F C G C
Oh my god, it’s all around
F C E7 Am G
Oh my god, life is cold and formless
F C G C
Oh my god, it’s all around
F C E7 Am C F G C (G C)
Enjoy.
I just saw The Low Anthem at the Kimmel Center and they were awesome. Their harmonies live were incredible and the musicianship was amazing.
