[Intro]
Amaj7 Bm7 C#m7 F7 E7 A B7sus4 E
[Verse 1]
Amaj7 Bm7 C#m7
Silver shone the rooftops, I heard the words 'you will'
E7 A B7sus4 E
And realized that in your eyes, the force of love could kill
Amaj7 Bm7 C#m7 F7
So go and get your wages, get what you deserve
E7 Amaj7 Bm A Amaj7
When hope held out of it's hands today, you laughed and turned and fled
[Chorus]
Dmaj7
Release, 'cos I wanted the world,
B7
and all I could get to was a gun or a girl
Dmaj7
Release, now I've thrown them away
B7 Bm7
I'm here and I'm hungry and I hope I can stay
[Instrumental]
Amaj7 Bm7 C#m7 F7 E7 A B7sus4 E x2
[Verse 2]
Amaj7 Bm7 C#m7
The loch is overflowing, the sun has shed it's light
E7 A B7sus4 E
And all that's left to warm your breast's the wine we stole tonight
Amaj7 C#m7
Bottle merchants both of us, overdosed on keats,
E7 Amaj7 Bm A Amaj7
we smashed them all and watched them fall like magic in the streets
[Chorus]
Dmaj7
Release, 'cos I wanted the world,
B7
and all I could get to was a gun or a girl
Dmaj7
Release, now I've thrown them away
B7 Bm7
I'm here and I'm hungry and I hope I can stay

[Verse 3]
B C#m7 D#m7 Dm7
Standing in our new boots, we've lost the urge to hide
F#7 B C#7sus4 F#
We left it with the souvenirs that forced us to decide
B C#m7 D#m7 Dm7
How we'd storm the palace, meet me at the gates
F#7 Bmaj7 C#m6 B Bmaj7 B
There's plenty bread and water here for anyone who waits
[Chorus]
E
Release, 'cos I wanted the world,
C#7
and all I could get to was a gun or a girl
E
Release, now I've thrown them away
C#7
I'm here and I'm hungry and I hope I can stay
E
But you can't remember where you squandered your hope
C#7
A fistful of dollars and a fistful of dope
E
With your hands in your hair and your hair in your face
C#7
You'd better summon your soul because we're leaving this place
Emaj7 C#7
With a red, red flag and a red red flag
Emaj7 C#7
A red red flag for a souvenir
Emaj7 C#7
With a red, red flag and a red red flag
Emaj7 C#7
A red red flag for a souvenir
