Blood Is Blood by Nerina Pallot
Blood Is Blood
Intro: C#m E F#m Bsus4 B ( Bsus4 B )
Verse: C#m E F#m Bsus4 B
Tinkerbell, my winged friend I think we got it all wrong
No fairytales, no happy ending, just pre-historic songs
C#m E F#m B
A cristal in my baby's eyes
I want what I can't love
So now I've learnt how to dispise
I think I've learnt enough
Chorus: E C#m F#m B
Blood is blood, and blood will flow, that's all it does, that's all it knows
But I've one question, I want something, I want more
And flesh is flesh, an urgent fire, it drags you down, this cheap desire
We all want something, maybe beauty maybe more..

E A
If blood is blood, then blood will flow
F#m B
That's all it does, that's all it knows
E A B
But I've one question, I want something, I want more.
E A
Flesh is flesh, an urgent fire
F#m B
It drags you down, this cheap desire.
E A B
We all want something, maybe beauty, maybe more...
VERSE:
Absolution, constitution, leave it all behind
Take off your shirt, your worried face, and let me lose your mind.
I thought that I might change the world, but all I changed was me.
So now I sleep most days and think of where it all might lead.
[repeat CHORUS]

Every cloud will bring you here.

CHORUS:
Notes:
If you're busking this, you might want to play B7 (7978 10 7) on the last line
of the CHORUS, the last time around (e.g. on the "all" of "we all want
something..."). Just a little yearning touch to finish...
E A
Oh blood is blood, and blood will flow
F#m B
That's all it does, that's all it knows
E A B
But I've one question, I want something, I want more.
E A
So flesh is flesh, an urgent fire
(So flesh is flesh, and it twists the soul)
F#m B
It drags you down, this cheap desire
(Like a tourniquet, like a begging bowl)
E A B
We all want something, maybe beauty, maybe more
(Like some long forbidden treasure in the dirt...)
Oh blood is blood, and blood will flow -
(Blood is Blood, and it's on our hands)
That's all it does, that's all it knows
(That's the price of grace for the common man)
But I've one question, I want something, I want more
(For that one good hour you pay with all your life)
C#m
I want more
[play: Guitar Figure 1]
C#m
I want more
