Radical Face – Holy Branches chords

Chords:
Transpose:
Radical Face likes to tune his guitars a half step down, so if you want to play 
along with the song, tune down to Eb-G#-C#-F#-Bb-Eb. Alternatively you can 
transpose a half step up at the side (ultimate guitar is magical) but there'll be 
more bar chords to play.

Intro: F#m A E B x2

F#mWhen you were young
AYou'd bite your tongue
E BCalm, always did what you were told
F#mNever ran your mouth
ALived life on tiptoes
E BOnly felt peace if by yourself
F#mWhen mistakes don't count
A EThere's a hole in your chest
DFrom the time that you were born
F#mOne that don't get filled
A E'cause you've always known you're nothin' they want
F#m B DBut everybody's bones are just holy branches
E F#mCast from trees to cut patterns into the world
B DAnd in time we find some shelter
E BmSpill our leaves and then sleep in the Earth
D And when we're there we'll belong
E F#m'cause the Earth don't give a damn if you're lost
F#m A E Bm x2 over the "ooo-oo-oo" bit
F#m ANow I live alone
E BWorking the belly of machines
F#mWring my soot-black hands
AAnd I don't sleep much
E Days don't feel different
BFrom the nights
F#mWith no goals in mind
A EThere's a hole in my chest
DFrom the time I walked away
F#mOne I fill with sweat
A ESo now I know I'm nothin' they want
F#m B DBut everybody's bones are just holy branches
E F#mRide the breeze to cut patterns in the leaves
B DAnd in time we find some shelter
E DSpill our seeds and then wait for our turns
F#m A EBut for now we're adrift on the waves of discontent
DTrying to carve our place
F#m EAll in hopes we'll be something they want
F#mBut I'm not holding my breath
F#m A E Bm x4 over the "ooo-oo-oo" bit
B D BTrace your fingers down my spine
B D BMake your home behind my eyes
B D BLine my skull with harmless lies
D E F#mI'll bide my time until I'm something they want
