The Blind Leaving The Blind Mvt 1 - Part 2 by Punch Brothers
The Blind Leaving The Blind Mvt 1 - Part 2
The chords written are the actual chords being played, but it's easiest
to play it like Chris Eldridge does it with a capo on the second fret,
1 step lower (starting in the key of G instead of A).
Just transpose it down 2 half steps and capo 2.
This is highly simplified but it sounds decent just playing it on an acoustic guitar.
Intro
A A D E
D A
The sweet young man
D E Bm
goes walking down the street wiping blood off his hands
B E
and it doesn't look good but he does what he can
D A
to erase the signs
D A E Bm
of the nightmare he faced at the scene of the crime
D F#m E
she snuck up behind him
A D F#m B7
as he knelt by her victim
E E G#sus B
whispered "I knew you'd come;
E E G#sus B
But there's nothing to be done,
A E F# G#sus G#
And if I was you, I'd run.
C#m D# C#m D#
'Cause no one cares about what you felt
E
when they see any signs of guilt.
C#m D# C#m D#
you kissed its face; you held its hand;
E6 B
you always were a sweet young man"
