Whispers Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[D]There's [G]a monkey on my b[Bm]ack
He's begging [Dm]for attention
[C]He'[Am]s scratching at my sho[Bm]ulders
An[Cm]d does so with convi[D]ction
Some[G]times it does [Bm]feel
That I [Dm]am
Edward
Mordrake
[C]But to say[Am] so would be mon[Bm]day -cious
[Cm]Cos I'm far more than [D]two -faced
Oh, whis[G]pers in my [Em]ear
Son, [G]you're far from in the [A]clear
You've [C]only just [D]begun to climb
This mountain [C]made by men [Cm]malign
[G]This stuff gets under [Bm]my skin,
finding [G]solace [Dm]in my membran[C]es
[Am]It's agonising to [Bm]anticipate
I'll [Cm]end up on my [D]arse again
I've [G]yet to feel human,
[Bm]wonder if sh[Dm]e'll do that for me[C]
[Am]As figures double, s[Bm]o does trouble
[Cm]Sparring with [D]reality
[G]Oh, whispers in my [Em]ear
Son, [G]you're far from in the [A]clear
[C]You've only just be[D]gun to climb
This mountain [C]made by men [Cm]malign
[Am]Take [G]shelter behind the coun[Bm]ter
[Dm]Though losing the will [C]to live
Con[Am]tentment is a li[Bm]quid,
a [Cm]migrate vessel is a [D]sieve
Per[G]turbed by thoughts
of an[Bm]gelic colours
[D]As [Dm]sor ted withi[C]n woes
[Am]Dreams of smiles [Bm]like miles upon cave,
[Cm]paintings in my nose[D], whispers[G] in my ear[Em]
Son, [G]you're far from in the [A]clear,
you've [C]only just be[D]gun to climb
This moun[C]tain made by men [Cm]maligned
With [G]neither ice pick [Em]nor a guide
You [G]scaled another [A]chance's side
You've [C]only just [D]begun to climb
This moun[C]tain made by [Cm]men [D]maligned
St.
Elmo's fire breaks on my [C]fingertips
[Bm]The snakes vacate [G]the [Bm]land
And [C]slide into their homes
[A]An air -raid siren breaks the
silent [C]stirring of the calm
[D]And a blind lady in the str[C]eet cries
As she grips both of your palms
and [G]whispers in my [Em]ear
Son, you're [G]far from in the [A]clear
You've [C]only just [D]begun to climb
This [C]mountain made by [Cm]men maligned
With [G]neither aspect [Em]nor a guide
The [G]scale and order [A]chances side
You've [C]only just [D]begun to climb
This moun[C]tain made by
[Cm]men maligned
[G]Whispers in my [Em]ear
Son, you're [G]far from in the [A]clear
You've [C]only just be[D]gun to climb
This [C]mountain made by men [Cm]ma ligned
With [G]neither eyes fixed [Em]nor a guide
To [G]scale another [A]chance's side
[C]You've only just [D]begun to climb
This moun[C]tain made by [Cm]men
[G]maligned[Em][G][A][C][D][C]
