Sympathy by Sleater-Kinney chords
Start Jamming...
[N] I know I [A#] come to you [F#] only when in need.
I'm not the best believer, I'm not the most deserving.
[B] But all I have, all I am, all I can,
[F#] is to [D] beg you on bended [B] knees.
[F#] Yeah.
Precious baby, is your life hanging?
I'm standing on it right on today.
[B] But I can't help
[F#]
[D] begging.
[B]
[F#]
[C#m] [B]
[F#m] I've got this curse in my hands, I've got this curse in my [Bm] hands.
All I touch is black, just a dust, to be sang.
I've [F#m] got this curse in my tongue, I've got this curse on my tongue.
[Bm] All it tastes is the rust, this decay in my blood.
I don't [F#] like the dark girl with the deep long face.
Only wants to give up the worst kiss.
I [B]
shout out and shake him to death.
[F#] Hell.
But [D] I beg you [B]
to stay.
[F#]
[C#m] [B]
[F#m] I've got this curse in my hands, I've got this curse in my [Bm] hands.
All I touch is black, just a dust, to be sang.
[F#m] I've got this curse in my tongue, I've got this curse on my [B] tongue.
All it tastes is [Bm] the rust, this decay in my blood.
[F#] When the moment strikes, you're too possible.
[F#m] The waves you make and the facts are [B] telling us.
[F#] There's no right or left, we are darkest moment.
[F#m] And when the flames are what we [B] long to feel.
I'm so sorry, for those who [F#] didn't
[B] [F#m] burn.
[C#m]
[B] I'm so sorry, for those who didn't burn.
[F#m] I search the meaning inside, the sentences that I've [B] won.
It's the glamour, the skin, feel the fat, let me [F#m] in.
Look for hope in the dark, the shadow's cast by your [Bm] heart.
It's the glamour, the faith, no more rust, more restraint.
[B] I'm angry, [F#] I would be, shaking in the world.
I wish I was wise up in style, I'd be grateful.
I [B] say, thanks for the love, for the joy, for the smile on his [F#] face.
And I [D] would beg you, abandon [E] me.
[B] [F#] I would [D] beg you, abandon me.
