Black Flies Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[F][Am][F][Am][F][F]

[Verse 1]
Black flies on the win[Am]dowsill
That we are
That we are
That we [G]are to [F]know
Winter stole sum[Am]mer's thrill
And the [G]river's [F]cracked and cold
See the sky is no [Am]man's land
A [G]darkened [F]plume to stay
Hope here needs a [Am]humble hand
Not a [G]fox [F]found in your place

[Interlude 1]
[Am][G][F][Am][F][F]

[Chorus 1]
[Am]And no man is an islan[G]d, oh this I know[F]
But can't you see, oh?
[Am]Maybe you were the ocean[G],
when I was just a [F]stone

[Verse 2]
Black flies on the win[Am]dowsill
That we are
That we are
That we [G]are to [F]hold
Comfort came against [Am]my will
And every [G]story [F]must grow old
Still I'll be a [Am]traveler
A [G]gypsy's [F]reins to face
But the road is [Am]wearier
With that [G]fool [F]found in your place

[Interlude 2]
[Am][G][F]
[Am][G][F]

[Chorus 2]
[Am]And no man is an islan[G]d,
oh this I [F]know
But can't you see, oh?
[Am]Maybe you were the ocean[G],
when I was just a [F]stone[G]
[Am]And no man is an islan[G]d,
oh this I [F]know
But can't you see, oh?
[Am]Maybe you were the ocean[G],
when I was just a [F]stone

[Interlude 3]
So here we are
[Am][F][Am][F]
[Am][F][Am][F]
[Am][F][Am][F]
[Am][F][Am][F]
[Am][F][Am][F]
[Am][F][Am][F]
[Am][F]

[Outro 1]
[Am]And I don't wanna beg your pardo[F]n
And I don't wanna ask you [Am]why
But if I was to go my [F]own way
Would I have to pass you [Am]by?
And I don't wanna beg your [F]pardon
And I don't wanna ask you [Am]why
But if I was to go my [F]own way
Would I have to pass you [Am]by?
[F][Am][F]
[Am][F][Am][F][Am]
