Biography:
Alternately explosive and restrained, the aptly titled The Bloom and the Blight is a meditation on past and present - melodic fury matched with the eloquent, confessional lyricism that has made Two Gallants an enduring favorite of both fans and critics.
Capturing the sound of a new beginning, The Bloom and the Blight celebrates the band’s much anticipated reunion following a multi-year break. It is the work of Two Gallants, fully matured, the band fearlessly exploring new ground in search of a sound that defines a very personal catharsis.

Song: Linger On
Album: The Scenery of Farewell
Intro: C G C G F G C G
C G C
step out to clutch the evening air
G F G C G
‘straction from your disrepair and all of those who say they know
C G C G F
walk the balustrade till dawn you won’t blink and you won’t yawn
G C G
never let your weakness show
Am G F Am G F
though i keep your picture on the wall unplug the phone in case you call
G C G
and dust collects upon the sill
Am G C G F
still you misplace all your faith in words as though you’ll ever feel assured
G C G
if you don’t know you never will
Chorus:
C G Am G
but no i never meant you any harm
Dm Am G
suffocating shelter of your arms
C G Dm F (G) C
if i let you down it wasn’t me but you who kept me round
G C G
linger on linger on
C G C G F
and while your tears fall dawn his cheek for the fallen, small and meek
G C G
look what the invalides compose
C G C G F
well he should've warned you from the start another callus on the heart
G C G
another victim of the throes
Am G F Am G F G C G
so sip your cigarettes and tea be sure you never think of me when your vanities unload
Am G C G F
and in case your beauty makes you weep for what you touched but couldn’t keep
G C G
for what you had but couldn’t hold
Chorus:
C G Am G
but no i never meant you any harm
Dm Am G
suffocating shelter of your arms
C G Dm F (G)C
if you should feel betrayed it wasn’t me but you who made me stay
G C G
linger on linger on
Interlude:
C G Am G
F G C G
C G C G F
well i’ll take your convalescent dreams patch the wounds and sew the seams
G C G
get you ready for the fall
C G C G F
but should you miss me when i’m gone girl your memory serves you wrong
G C G
you never needed me at all
Am G F Am G F
but you can miss the hollow of my hand and all the lives that we had planned
G C G
all the jealousies you sold
Am G C G F
and i’ll take back the youth you can’t repay all the hours i gave away
G C G
and all the lies i never told
Chorus
C G Am G
but no i never meant you any harm
Dm Am G
suffocating shelter of your arms
C G Dm F (G) C
and if i did you wrong it wasn’t me but you who wrote this song
G C G
linger on linger on
