Rome by The Do Good Assassins
Rome
Capo on 2, or if you don’t want to capo, transpose it up by 2 semitones to D major and it’s still very
playable.
|Am Em |Am G C |G F G |C |
C F
Well I’m walking through the station
Am G F
But I can’t find your face
C F
Past the daughters of Sheba
F G
And the puppets and parades
C F
Under skies that have witnessed
Am G F
Countless conquerors and slaves
C G C
Just another bloodless Monday morning in Rome
C F
Every bar’s a benediction
Am G F
Every hiss rings like a phone
C F
Every kiss a crucifixion
F G
Every street light chaperone
C F
And it’s biblically raining
Am G F
Like a folk song on the stones
C G C
Singing all our thoughts these days lead to Rome
Am Em
Vows of engagement
F C
Dreams and amazement
Am Em
The pigeons and pavement
F G
Is all you really mean
C F
Through the long nights of ruin
Am G F
To the mornings made of gold
C G C
We rise and we fall that way in Rome
C F
Every monolith that crumbles
Am G F
Every empty glass of wine
C F
Every smirking Sistine cupid
F G
Every punctured valentine
C F
Is a living, breathing monument
Am G F
To the days of our decline
C G C
Winter, Spring, and Summer fall in Rome
Am Em
Hands in your pockets
F C
Like plugs in their sockets
Am Em
Roses and rockets
F G
That world is dead and gone
C F
I hit the sack at 3am
Am G F
When your key hit the door
C G C
Your sweet eye wanders, my heart roams
Am Em Am G F
I don’t know why we still call this place home
C G C
When we rose our love fell in Rome
