Crocodiles chords and lyrics - FELIX RIEBL

Lời & hợp âm

[Intro 1]
[Em]

[Verse 1]
Into the jaws of [Em]a crocodile's dream
I was riding with El across
borders unseen
[Am]Never been there before in
that beautiful strange
Through [Em]the deep green jungle
to the [Am]red Mars [Em]plains
As the hot day drew its thick breath
We were close enough to flying to
be near enough to death
There [Am]were ghosts swimming in my thoughts,
I'd say that
I've [Em]never been so close to home and so far [E]away,
[Em]as i[C]n
[Em]Timor

[Verse 2]
[G]Les[D]te,[C]
[Em]Timo[G]r Lest[D]e, Timor Leste, Timor...
[Em]

[Verse 3]
The motor stopped and
the night was still
Except the fan kept clipping
on the window sill
And [Am]the tap kept dripping
in our orange room
My heart was [Em]dancing [E]with the
[Em]elephants BOOM [E]BOOM BOOM
[Em]And I, I couldn't sleep, I was wide awake
Like a super mosquito couldn't
catch it or escape from it
[Am]I write songs, I don't often pray
But [Em]I've never been so glad for the break of day,
as [C]in[Em][G][D][C][Em][G]
[D]

[Verse 4]
[C]Tim[Em]or Leste,
[G]Tim[D]or Leste, Timor Leste, Timor...
[Em][Am][D]

[Verse 5]
[Em]Headlights,
bare feet, white skirts
Me and Eloise and [E]Henning meeting
Mele [Em]on the outskirts
[Am]Into a house where the Reggaeton blazed
And [Em]the palm wine circled til
our eyes were [Am]glazed
There was [Em]something rare
about the way he smiled
As if the distance of his thoughts
equaled more than miles
[Am]I said, "Who we are Tony,
please explain," and he said
[Em]"Everybody [Am]here has at least six names,"
[C]welcome [Em]to
[G][D]

[Verse 6]
[C]
[Em]Timor Leste,
[G]Tim[D]or [C]Les[Em]te, Ti[G]mor[D] Leste, Timor...

[Interlude 1]

[E][Em]

[Verse 7]
[Em]Sometimes I wonder if
we cheat our own maps
If we re- draw [E]the lines,
if [Em]we distort the facts
[E]Cos [Am]we're too afraid of
the love of the deep
Of [Em]the big, green devil in Arte Morris
He'll eat up your ideas,
rip [E]up your cause
[Em]Make a bite mark bigger
than a king lion's roar
No [Am]gauze could cover that wound,
white teeth
Make [Em]a crooked white wall of my country's embassy
[D]that's [C]in[Em][G][D][C][Em][G]
[D]

[Verse 8]
[C]Tim[Em]or Les[G]te,[D]
[C]Timor [Em]Lest[G]e, T[D]im[C]or L[Em]este, Timor...
