Unfortunately I don't know the picking to this song (even though it's amazing), but I figured out the
central chords so that you can strum and sing along. Have fun!

Palisade
From Palisade
No Capo
Intro: Am
Verse:
Am
I'm only days away
From givin' up this place.
F G
I need a change of pace, a change of ways.
F G Am
Some days I don't fit in my own skin.
Am
I am uncomfortable
I guess 'cause, after all,
F G
I'm just a carbon ball housing a soul,
F G Am
Just getting by and getting pretty good at sin.
Chorus:
G
And every time I try to pray
C Am
A memory gets in the way
F G Am
And I forget what it was I was supposed to say.
G
Hiding in my palisade,
C Am
Writing on a blank white page
F G Am
Keeps my demons one more day away.
Verse:
Am
I just can't understand
What makes a man a man.
F G
Is it his heart or maybe the heart in his hand?
F G Am
How much he's changed, or maybe it's how much he's the same.
Am
If all this world's a tree,
I'm just a withered leaf.
F G
I'll blow away, find me a new place to be,
F G Am
But darlin', I hope you'll love me just the same.
Chorus:
G
And every time I try to pray
C Am
A memory gets in the way
F G Am
And I forget what it was I was supposed to say.
G
Hiding in my palisade,
C Am
Writing on a blank white page
F G Am
Keeps my demons one more day away.
