Barricades

Am
Hey!
Am
You're living in a dream
Am
You're burning all the oxygen here in your little room
Am
Waiting for sleep to come
Am
Maybe
Am
You're more than what it seems
Am
Somewhere among the piles of ashes and broken glass
Am
There is a sweet thing

*the chords for these parts you just strum a basic pattern of your chosing*

                  Dm
So welcome to the party dreamer, it's nice to meet you
F              G
You've got the world on your shoulders
Am
What did they do to you to make
Am
You hide your beautiful self with ...

Am
Barricades
Am
Snakes crawling through ancient stones
Am
Nobody's holding your hand, no one's making it easy
Am
But I believe


                Dm
You've got more power in the twist of one finger
F            G
Than all the tyrants and predators
Am
The hypocrites will not rest at ease
                                C
A darker truth will bow down to you

     E    Am      C             F
I can only see you in silhouette
                          D7           G7        C
Turn yourself to the light so I can see your face
    E      Am      C              F
Only broken moments are sacrosanct
         A           D7             G        E
Turn yourself to the light so I can see your face
                                        E7
Your beautiful face, your beautiful face, your beautiful face
             Am
Behind those barricades


*Back to the Am on the 3rd beat. This is a sick instrumental for the brass*

Am
If you walk with barricades
Am
You need a gimlet stare
Am
You need a reptile handshake, the revolution
Am
Singing kumbaya
                          Dm
'cause one day they gonna throw their secrets back on your shoulders
F            G              Am
You turn the old television off
                                                 G       Am            C
The lion opens it's mouth to roar, but someone's shaking your shoulders

     E    A       C             F
I can only see you in silhouette
                    Am    D7           G7    C
Turn yourself to the light so I can see your face
    E      Am      C7             F
Only broken moments are sacrosanct
         A    Am     D7             G        E
Turn yourself to the light so I can see your face
                          E7
Your beautiful face, your beautiful face, your beautiful face
             Am
Behind those barricades
