Biography:
Formed at the beginning of 2013, Royal Blood is a 2-piece band from Brighton, East Sussex, UK. Having known each other for years in different bands, Mike Kerr (Bassist/Vocalist) & Ben Thatcher (Drums) finally came together and went into the studio to record ‘Figure It Out’ – the first track that brought attention to the band. At the tail end of 2013, Royal Blood released ‘Out of The Black’, their debut single on Black Mammoth Records.

Verse 1:
Dm Am G F E
How did it feel when it came alive and took you
Dm Am G F E
Out of the black? It broke your skin and shook through
Dm Am Bb E
Every part of me, every part of you
Chorus: [riff at the bottom]
Dm F E
You made a fool out of me and took the skin off my back running
Dm F E
So don't breathe when I talk cuz you haven't been spoken to
Dm F E
I've got a gun for a mouth and a bullet with your name on it
Dm F E
But a trigger for a heartbeat and blood for an empty pocket
Break:

Verse 2:
Dm Am G F E
I never knew why and you didn't care when
Dm Am G F E
It closed every door, I watched them wait in sin
Dm Am Bb E
And I promised you like you promised me

But those vows we made fucked it up for free
