[Intro 1]
[A][D][A][D][A][Asus4][A]

[Verse 1]
Here on the [D]hill above the [G]settle[Dsus4]ment,
[G]the bui[A]lding[G]s are tal[D]king[A][Asus4][A]
A [G]tower to a [D]terrace says the [G]word's [Dsus4]on the street,
the [G]dead are [D]walking...
[A]The

[Verse 2]
[Bm]brows are [G]arched of the [Em]mews across
[Dm]the stre[G]et[Bm][G][Em][D][F]
[Dm]By a p[Bm]ale ochre li[G]ght are ma[Em]de
out [Dm]heavy [Aaug]relief s[D][G][D][F]
[Em]Where [A]all your dreams are [G]borrowed
all your senses are [D]thieves[G][D]
And Ned [A]Kelly won't ride past your [G]window
despite the [F#]freeze on your disbe[Edim]lief

[Verse 3]
[Bm]Don't bring 'em [G]up if you
[Em]can't [D]put 'em [Dm]down
[G]Thin [Bm]Captain [G]Crackers bowling naked
[D]through [F]the center [Dm]of the to[Bm]wn
The [G]sun won't [Em]bake his [Dm]blue skin [Abdim]brown,
he's been [Gm]too long underground
[A][G][A][D][A]

[Verse 4]
[D]
[A]"I see," said a blind builder [D]to his deaf daughter as he [A]picked up his hammer [G]and [A]saw,
[D]"if [A]blo[D]od [A]is [G]thicker t[A]han wate[D]r why'd you dress in [A]the dress that you [G]wore?"[D]
[G]The

[Verse 5]
[Bm]blind are [G]drawn by a [Em]blank
curios[Dm]ity
[G](Don't bring[Bm][G]
[D]'em[Dm] up..[F].)[Bm]
Drawn on [G]mirrors where [Em]windows [Dm]used to be
[Bm](if [G]you can't pu[D]t 'em [A]down)
[Dm]Some

[Verse 6]
[A]people might say "My de[G]sire's
not the captain of [D]me!"[G][D]
And Red [A]Barry might fly from his
[G]pedestal at night to [F#]spook the
Univer[Edim]sity...

[Verse 7]
[Bm]Don't bring [G]'em up if you
[D]can't put 'em [Dm]down
[Bm]Thin Captain [G]Crackers bowling [D]naked
[Dm]through [F]the center [Dm]of the to[Bm]wn
[G]The sun won't [Em]bake his [Dm]blue skin [Abdim]brown,
he's been too [Gm]long underground
[D]

[Verse 8]
O tailor my bones what need new
clothes but the [Em]lower half loves
What the upper half loathes,
I [G]could [F#m]get around like an intellectual I
Suppose,
[Gm]wearing the highs with the lows
But [D]I'd sooner sing these doleful drones
by [Em]barcoo dog and
Lagerphones, but [G]my hand [D]don't [F#m]write when a feather it [D]holds, [Gm]it hangs like a wren with its neck wrung,
[D]as did the bells in my quasi commode where I have to [Em]shift my head to see where my pillow goed[G], some morni[F#m]ngs I wake up by the side of the road[D][Gm]
Bringing it up for the gutter
After putting it down for the [A]crowd?
[G][F#m][G][A][G][A][F#m][A][G]

[Verse 9]
[A]
I said I would ar[F#m]rive in the c[Gm]apital?
[A]Aft[F#m]er chu[G]ckin' [A]out[G]side the [F#m]St.
Au[G]gustine's purple parish hall?
[A]Don't bring 'em [G]up if you
[F#m]can't put 'em [A]down
And you know I [D]can't
