Take Back The Instant
Good City For Dreamers
Tabbed By Josh Mulla
Capo 1
Intro
E, G, C, Bb, C#
[E] Take back the instant, when you [G]brushed him off your shirt
[C] You tried to drag him to the trash
[Bb] You tried to trade him [C#]in for cash
[E] Take back the instant, when you [G]blew him off your path
[C] With a kiss reading 20 below zero
[Bb] Tomorrow is a no-[C#]go, a no-go
[E] Cold cold moment, when the [G]first doubt shot through your head
A [C]black ink drip running through your veins
Start [Bb]___________________ [C#]bringing you sweet pain
[E] Pregnant seconds, [G]dripping through the hour glass
When the [C]lure of men who could be kings
Made you [Bb]lose the man, who was [C#]wearing your ring
[E] He didn't match your lucious thoughts tonight
[G] You couldn't look him in the eye
[C] Awkward is the embrace, when it's [Bb]not tight,[C#]
(N/C)
Not tight
[E] And so the jewel you once both had
Is left [G]crumpled, like a collapsed lung
[C] When all you had to do, was [Bb]hang out in the sun,[C#]
Hang out in the [E]sun[G][C][Bb][C#]
[E] Sir you feel so dignified, your [G]watch is very ornate
But you were [C]just born into the right place
[Bb]Just born into the [C#]right race
[E] You're climbing mount everest now, [G]granting wishes from above
[C] Favours are yours to give
[Bb]Lies are yours to live[C#]
[E] Take back the instants, that [G]lead you to believe
That the [C]earth shakes cos youre not happy
And the [Bb]sun rises cos youre not [C#]sleeping
[E] Youve got the loudest parade in town
[G]Clowns assasins and crooks
You [C]got ladies in see-through gowns
[Bb]Reading extracts [C#]from your books
[E] Beggars are trailing at the back
[G] Waving from the cardboard float
[C] Youre thinking that up close
[Bb]Statistics can be [C#]such a drag
[E] Your cup is full now, [G]blood is the colour of this wine
And its [C]dripping from the ceiling
And its [Bb]making the chandeliers ring
And the [C#]instant the ballroom over flows,
[Asus2] Your throats turn into your [E]gallows[G][C][Bb][C#]
This is a great song performed by a fantastic band.
Im sure all of this (with the exception of the A sustained 2) is correct!
Enjoy
