The national anthem of nowhere chords and lyrics - DAVID J

Lời & hợp âm

[Verse 1]
[D]You've been looking for the words,
the words to set you [G]free
Search[D]ing for the music to the
anthem of your coun[G]try
You've cour[D]ted the sublime,
you've courted the ab[G]surd
You've disbelieved [D]in what
you've seen
You've disbelieved in all
you've [G]heard
Prayed [A]to a vague god [G]above
Slipped your fin[A]gers from
the tyrant's [G]glove
Now you're looking for
[D]the words
[G][D][G]

[Verse 2]
Now you're stran[D]ded on the shore
beached like a big blue [G]whale
Stran[D]ded on this shore where the cold
north winds pre[G]vail
[D]You've steered clear of the
hunter's steel har[G]poon
And yet [D]you've still landed
in a dinosaur lagoon
[G]You've had a b[A]rush with fate[G]
[A]Blooded your hands over hate
[G]Now you're looking for
a [D]word[G][D][G]
What's the word?
[D][G][D]

[Verse 3]
If I said [Gm]the word was love,
would you [D]agree?
[Gm]Or would you shake your head?
Cock a snook and laugh
[D]at me? Would you?
[Gm]Well, cynicism's easy and
as far as I can [D]see
Un[A]fashionable love could be the
[G]only thing to set you free
[D]

[Verse 4]
You've been living in the city,
nailed to a neon [G]cross
Pon[D]dering the stars without
a coin to [G]toss
[D]Made a play for heaven,
got a pay off straight [G]from hell
Assas[D]sinated the angel ringing
that celestial bell
[G]

[Verse 5]
Now you're kiss[A]ing
the Devil's [G]hand
Seems like [A]the closest
thing to dry [G]land
Since you've been looking

[Interlude 1]
for the words
[D][G][D][G]
[D]

[Verse 6]
But the Dev[G]il won't set you [D]free[G][D]
He keeps [G]the monkey in the [D]tree[G][D]
Only one [G]thing gonna set
you [D]free
