Chord/Tab song: Favourite Hour

"Favourite Hour" (Capo: 5th. fret)

____Intro: A

____Verse: 1

[A]Figure han[C#m]___ging on a [F#m7]leather band[A7]
[D]cog___consult[F#m7]s the watch he [Bm7]cups in his hand
Bejewelled [E]movement measures [A]lost and vanished [E]time
pray for the [Fdim]boy who makes his [A]bed in cold earth and quicklime

____Chorus:

So [Amaj7]stay the [F#m7]hands, arrest the [Bm7]time
till I am [Fdim]captured by your [A]touch
bless___ings[F#m7]____I don't co[Dm/F]unt____
small [Fm]mercies and su_[C]__ch
the flags may [Em7]lower as we ap[Am7]proach the favourite[D] hour

____Verse: 2

[A] Now there's a [C#m]tra___gic waste of [F#m7]brutal youth[A7]
[D] strip___and [F#m7]polish this un[Bm7]var___nished truth
the tricky [E]door that gapes be[A]neath the ragged [E]noose
the crippled [Fdim]verdict begs a[A]gain for the lamest excuse

____Chorus:

So [Amaj7]stay the [F#m7]hands, arrest the [Bm7]time
till I am [Fdim]captured by your [A]touch
bless___ings[F#m7]____I don't co[Dm/F]unt____
small [Fm]mercies and su_[C]__ch
the flags may [Em7]lower as we ap[Am7]proach the favourite[D] hour

____Verse: 3

[A] Pull___out my eyes[C#m]___so I may [F#m7]never spy[A7]
[D] wa___ving br[F#m7]anches as they're [Bm7]waving goodbye
their vile per[E]fume brings to my [A]mouth a bitter [E]taste
the murmuring br[Fdim]ooks had best speak up[A], it's a terrible waste

____Chorus:

So [Amaj7]stay the [F#m7]hands, arrest the [Bm7]time
till I am [Fdim]captured by your [A]touch
bless___ings[F#m7]____I don't co[Dm/F]unt____
small [Fm]mercies and su_[C]__ch
the flags may [Em7]lower as we ap[Am7]proach the favourite[D] hour
