You As You Were by Shearwater
You As You Were
Capo on 2nd fret
E
When you fall at the rocks
At the bend at the river
G#m
With the blood from your nose
Running hard on your fingers
H A
And through the rest of your life
E G#m H A
E
The electric charge
Of a change in the weather
G#m
You were touching my arm
You were holding a feather
H A
And then I opened my eyes
C#m
As the World goes racing, suddenly changed
H
As the shock of the axe, it leaves you trembling
C#m
Like a busting shell in the small of your back
H
Or a job that's hard on the cast of your little lie
And an animal life was surging away
E
And you were back on the road
Through the worst of the Winter
G#m
Through the Valley of Lies
Passing through like an arrow
E
Oh , if your vision collapsed
And a storm from the river
G#m
Like a golden medalion
Clutching tight in your fingers
H
But on the slope of the edge
A
Will you recover your life
E
You could stand on the back of a shuddering beam
G#m
With a pistol firing shots into the air
E
You could run in the blood of the Sun's hard rays
G#m
You could drive the mountains down into the bay
H
Or go back to the East where it's all so civilized
A
Where I was born to the life
E
But I am leaving the life
I am leaving the life
I am leaving the life
I am leaving the life
G#m
I am leaving the life
I am leaving the life
I am leaving the life
I am leaving the life
H A E
I am leaving

capos) as you hear them, I play it with capo, for chords with capo see further down.
Intro: F#(/C#) x2 D#m x2 A#m B
F#/C#
When you fall at the rocks
At the bend at the river
D#m
With the blood from your nose
Running hard on your fingers
A#m B
And through the rest of your life
F#(/C#) x2 D#m x2 A#m B
And so on...
D#m
As the World goes racing, suddenly changed
C#
As the shock of the axe, it leaves you trembling
D#m
Like a busting shell in the small of your back

Or a job that's hard on the cast of your little lie
And an animal life was surging away
And you were back on the first chord progression, the entire song consists of those two.
