Belle and Sebastian - The Life Pursuit: chords

C
What do you do when hope is all but gone?
                       G
You need a brother to lean on
           E
But your brother's gone
                      Am
Your sister's in the wrong part of town
F        Fm               C
I took a walk to remember ecstasy
F          Fm            Dm       G
It's not today, not even yesterday

Songs of praise all very well
Their voices swell
They tug at sadness
Like love tugging at your sleeve
Is it worth the pain
To walk into the void again?
In your darkest hour he is the tiniest light
Light that's found beyond your present situation
And it's wide and it's broad, beyond all estimation

Is your belly fat, is your man a twat?
Do in-growing hairs provide you with
strange fascination?
The highlight of your day is plucking
all the roots away
You took a walk to remember ecstasy
It's not today, not even yesterday

F        Fm                    C
In your darkest hour he is the tiniest light
      B
The smallest of sparks
        Dm
He's a tinderbox
         C
He's a flaming torch
           Dm
Pinch your self quite hard
       C
In a place that hurts
       Dm
If it doesn't work
           C
Ask your friend to comply
            Dm
And if they hit the spot
         C
You can let yourself cry
              F
And when the teardrops stop,
                        E
I will take you for a drive
                                   Am           G# C
I'll explain all I know about the spiritual side

Life that's found beyond your present situation
And it's wide and it's broad, beyond all estimation
Life that's found beyond your present situation
And it's wide and it's broad,
so stay to your destination

Life that's found beyond your present situation
And it's wide and it's broad, beyond all estimation
Life that's found beyond your present situation
And it's wide and it's broad, beyond all estimation
