A Local Man by Patch and the Giant
A Local Man
[Intro]
Cm D# Bb Cm
[Verse]
Cm
He's got a voice that brings him silver,
D#
And a heart that reaps him gold
Bb
Delivery of chivalry
Cm
From a hundred years ago
Cm
And he sings his songs of freedom,
D#
And of loneliness and joy,
Bb
He speaks of kings and he speaks of queens,
Cm
And he sings of girls and boys
[Chorus]
Cm
But I don't ever, I don't stand a chance when
D# Bb
Compared to this man, friends
Cm D#
No I can't ever, I can't ever be the
Bb Cm
Man he was.
[Verse]
Cm
And if you listen to his drum beat,
D#
You can hear it far and wide
Bb
He sings a major key for a minor fee
Cm
Keeping rhythm and in time
Cm
And his ships, they run like clockwork
D#
To the bosun's beating drum
Bb
For the night they hide where the dragons fly,
Cm
And the shantyman sings his song.
[Chorus]
Cm
But if you'd ever stop to pause and listen,
D# Bb
You'd see what is missing
Cm
But all your eyes and all your ears
D#
Are vacant,
Bb Cm
Eluding time
[Instrumental]
Cm D# Bb Cm x2
[Chorus]
Cm
But I don't ever, I don't stand a chance when
D# Bb
Compared to this man, friends

No I can't ever, I can't ever be the
Bb Cm
Man he was.
[Verse]

Eluding time
