Swords And Knives

Biography:

Tears for Fears, named after a phrase found in Arthur Janov's book Prisoners of Pain, is a British pop/rock outfit formed in 1981 in Bath, England. Founder members Roland Orzabal and Curt Smith had been friends since their early teens and had already been in the shortlived ska band Graduate. Initially associated with the new wave and synthesiser bands of the early 1980s, Tears For Fears' earlier work, as evidenced on their 1983 debut album The Hurting , was explicitly based around the emotional angst of adolescence.

Em7 Bb G Dm
A waking world of innocence
Em7 Bb G Dm
So grave those first born cries
D# Csus2 D# Csus2
When life begins with needles and pins
Em7 Bb G Dm
It ends with swords and knives
Em7 Bb G Dm
Oh danger man, oh danger man
Em7 Bb G Dm
Your blade fits like a glove
D# Csus2
When forged in steel
D# Csus2
Time cannot heal
Em7 Bb G Dm
That blood red bond of love

D# Csus2
In times of trouble you're an open book
D# Csus2
With the change in the way you look
Em7 Bb G Dm
And it's sad love's not enough to make things better

(instrumental)

Turn the tables, we'll burn the fables
Lies beneath the visions and daydreams
Fooled by now, we mystify the past
Like a dream, like it never happened

When life begins with needles and pins
it ends with Swords and Knives
God save those born to die
