King And Cross

Possible chord shapes: e|---0---------4---------4---------4--------4--| B|---2---------4---------5---------2--------5--| G|---1---------4---------4---------2--------4--| D|---2---------4---------6---------2--------6--| A|---0---------2---------4---------4--------7--| E|--(0)--------x---------x---------2--------4--| Some of the specific chord shapes are probably inaccurate, but I think the basic chords are correct. In the studio recording of the song the 5th, 4th and 3rd strings are generally loudest - the high e string is barely audible. Intro: Verse: Glistening nighttime dew, and she is walking with me. From the house of red, I hear a child crying. Foxes heading home, their prey hangs from their jaws. And the forest knows, but it won’t share the secret. When the king takes sides, Leaving moral minds; soldiers take their share. Nighthawks seem to sense that now is the time. Deep inside them burns the raging fire of life. He'll take back what he owns. Verse: Death cannot take hold, if I can keep momentum. Fortres-ses of stone, turn into crystal tears Soothed by southern winds; I’ve found my strength now. And no- body knows, and we must keep their secret. When the king takes sides, Leaving moral minds; soldiers take their share. Nighthawks seem to sense that now is the time. Deep inside them burns the raging fire of life. He'll take back what he owns. Instrumental:
