The Three Of Us
Intro:
F#m A E Bm
I will never defend the lies that they tell to us on a Sunday morning.
F#m A E
I will never pretend
Interlude:
F#m A E Bm
F#m A E
After you hit that E chord do this rift, it follows along with the bass and horns:
e|---------------------|
B|---------------------|
G|---------------------|
D|---------------------|
A|-----2--4--2---------|
E|2--4---------4--2--0-|
F#m A (x2)
E F#m (x2)
Bm E F#m A (5th fret) Bm E F#m (x2)
Here you need to take off your index finger while barring the F#m. It should look like:
e|-2--0---------------|
B|-2--0---------------|
G|-2--0---------------|
D|-4--4---------------|
A|-4--4---------------|
E|-2--0---------------|
Once you can do that just take your finger off in time with the song and follow the chords:
F#m A E

And there were the three of us

The loss went all around our heads on a starry starry night.

Nobody mentioned that they'd never seen the breeze
E Bm
And everyone will die alone and that's okay with me
Bridge:

I believe in the non-believers.
A (5th fret)
I never thought I'd have to live a lie.

F#m
There we were, the three of us,
A
The thief, the king and I.
E
Finally, we were forced to see,
Bm
We were equals in the night.
(Starry, starry night)
F#m
Looking down between the trees,
A
And the town we knew we had to leave.
E
For what it's worth,
Bm
We will walk the Earth til we find the things we seek.
And the king said:
F#m
I believe I'm a non-believer now.
A
I was a leader, but I had to leave them all.
Bm D D(5th fret)
No one will ever know the things I held inside,
F#m
So let them go.
A Bm D
Oh my god, oh my god, yes, oh my god.

F#m A F#m
They will not protect us, we will fall.
A
They will not defend us.
Em F#m Em F#m
We'll be left behind, we'll be left behind.
Bm E F#m
I never give a damn about the story's end,
? Bm
Or even how it all began.
E F#m ?
And the one word that I'll seek is one that I can tell myself.
And it's a long and winding road,
But if you reap the seeds you sow,
You'll see you're really not alone.
F#m A E Bm F#m
I will never defend a man who makes amends with any enemy's friends,
A Bm

A Bm

F#m
There we were, the three of us,
A
The priest, the tramp, and I.
E
Years ago, we had left to roam,
Bm
But reunited on that night.
(Starry, starry night)
F#m
No one had to speak a word,
A
For we all knew what the others learned.
E
And everything that we ever did,
Bm
Was but a way to pass the time.
And the priest said:
F#m
I believe I'm a true believer now,
A
I was a sinner, but I came to see the light.
Bm D D(5th fret)
The bum and me did not agree, but I must confess of jealousy.
A Bm D
Oh my god, oh my god, yes, oh my god.
