Tell Me A Story by Mischief Brew
Tell Me A Story
Theres two guitars in this one, an acoustic playing open chords, and an electric playing
power chords, though they always play the same chord. It's really easy to tell when one
is playing and when it isn't so I guess just listen to the song for that.

D F#
Tell me a story, settle the cards.
D F#
Give me a cause for the foreign wars.
Wrap me up in our flag,
and let the bombs fall where they may.
Tell me a tale, make the puzzle whole.
Give it to the pilgrim without a soul.
Sell it to the miner who can't afford his coal
and may the history factory never close.

(Same as first verse)
You can build an army of this rabble yet.
You can make a nation from the ashes of the dead. Tell them a story:
god blood and glory,
brew up an enemy:
they're comin' to steal your bread.
And let the bombs fall where they may
on faces I don't see with names I cannot say.
For I trust the storyteller with my vote.
I, pilgrim was sold a golden soul,
sold a soul, sold his soul.

D
The first thing I remember?
Dsus4
Waking up and seeing you there.
Dsus4 D Dsus2
Comfort like a fire, like an answer to a prayer.
Like a beacon in the blackness,
solace from the racket.
Take your shears to the briars. Kill the chaos, make it clear.
(Same chord progression, but with electric playing the same chords)
Tell me why the buildings fall and everybody dies.
I have so many questions, just tell me where to sign...
and I'll take up arms
and lock all the doors
and I'll tell them a story 'bout the good guys
D(Palm muted)
of the war,
of the war.

Tell me a story to help me slip away.

I drank up an enemy.
Gmin7 Dmin
So let the bombs rain from our parade
and fall where they may.
