Colony Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[D]

[Verse 1]
A cry for [D]help,
a hint of anesthesia
The sound from broken homes
We used to always meet here
As he lays asleep,
she takes him in her arms
Some things I have to do,

[Interlude 1]
but I don't mean you harm
[D]

[Verse 2]
A worried parent's [D]glance,
a kiss, a last goodbye
Hands him the bag she packed,
the tears she tries to hide
A cruel wind that blows
down to our lunacy
And leaves him standing cold

[Interlude 2]
here in this colony
[D][G][D]

[Verse 3]
I can't see [D]why all these
confrontations
I can't see why all these [G]dislocations[D]
No family life, this [G]makes me feel uneasy
[D]Stood [G]alone here [C]in this [D]colony
[G]

[Verse 4]
[D]
In this [G]colony
In this [D]colony
In this colony

[Interlude 3]
In this colony
[D][G][D][G][D]

[Verse 5]
Dear God in his [D]wisdom took
you by the [Dm]hand[D]
God in his [G]wisdom [D]made you understand
God [G]in his [D]wisdom [G]took you [D]by the hand
God in [G]his wisdom made [C]you under[D]stand

[Verse 6]
God in [D]his wisdom took you by the hand
God in his wisdom made you understand
God in his wisdom took you by the hand
God in his wisdom made you understand

[Verse 7]
In [D]this colony
In this colony
In this colony
In [D]this colony

[Outro 1]
[D]
