Ben Howard - Black Flies: chords

                   Cm
Black flies on the windowsill
That we are
That we are
                G#
That we are to know
                        Cm
Winter stole summer's thrill
                 G#
And the river's cracked and cold
               Cm
See the sky is no man's land
            G#
A darkened plume to stay
                   Cm
Hope here needs a humble hand
                G#
Not a fox found in your place

Chorus:
Cm           A#              G#
No man is an island, this I know
But can't you see?
Cm                 A#                       G#
Maybe you were the ocean when I was just a stone

Black flies on the windowsill
That we are
That we are
That we are to hold
Comfort came against my will
And every story must grow old
Still I'll be a traveler
A gypsy's reins to face
But the road is wearier
With that fool found in your place

Chorus - x2

So here we are

And I don't wanna beg your pardon
And I don't wanna ask you why
But if I was to go my own way
Would I have to pass you by?
And I don't wanna beg your pardon
And I don't wanna ask you why
But if I was to go my own way
Would I have to pass you by?
