This is one of my favourite Kate Rusby songs; This isn't the way she plays it - I
couldn't be bothered to figure that out - but this seems to work just fine!
[C]How can you s[F]peak when you d[G]on't u[Am]nderstand,
[C]How can you c[F]hange what is [G]alter[C]ed,
[C]How can you h[F]elp when you w[G]on't re[Am]primand,
[C]And how can y[F]ou save what h[G]as fal[C]tered
Chorus:
The [Am]beasts on the [F]wing let them [C]fl[G]y,
The [Am]worlds in a s[F]pin let them [C]fl[G]y,
And [F]we will [C]watch as they [Am]fal[G]l,
And [F]try not to n[G]otice at [C]all
[C]How can you s[F]hare what you've a[G]lready[Am] spent
[C]How can you c[F]are for the ha[G]rmles[C]s
[C]How can you t[F]ake when you [G]have no [Am]consent
We will [C]never be [F]charmed by the [G]charm[C]less
Chorus:
The [Am]beasts on the [F]wing let them [C]fl[G]y,
The [Am]worlds in a s[F]pin let them [C]fl[G]y,
And [F]we will [C]watch as they [Am]fal[G]l,
And [F]try not to n[G]otice at [C]all
[C]How can you t[F]alk of the g[G]reat and the [Am]good
When [C]all that we [F]hear is [G]decei[C]ving
[C]How can we [F]find what [G]you never [Am]could
Oh [C]don't let us [F]stop you from [G]lea[C]ving
Chorus:
The [Am]beasts on the [F]wing let them [C]fl[G]y,
The [Am]worlds in a s[F]pin let them [C]fl[G]y,
And [F]we will [C]watch as they [Am]fal[G]l,
And [F]try not to n[G]otice at [C]all
[C]How can you [F]speak of dam[G]nation and f[Am]ire
When [C]all that we [F]hear is mis[G]lead[C]ing
We [C]all know you [F]speak with the [G]tone of a [Am]liar
You will [C]never be [F]one we [G]believe[C] in
