Keane - Dirt: chords

F#m          A
It's market day when
E                D
they bring the flood
F#m      D       E        A  E/G#
faster than our feet can run

Swarm of angels from above
All is broken, still they come

     D        F#m
And round the oak tree
A        E
air is shaking
  D        F#m    A       E
children sleep under the sun

Chorus:
        D              A
and we go down to the river to pray
  E                 Bm
pray for magic and another day
         D
but its low now, its like
       A
we're fading away
E                 D
into the dirt of memory

Along the Silk Road
The fires burn
Where the seats of learning stood
And handsome couples
Would take a turn

Through the wealthy neighbourhood
Oh, roll the stone or move the mountain
Wake oh, wake your time has come

Chorus:
And we go down to the river to pray
Pray for magic and another day
But it’s low now
It’s like we’re fading away
Into the dirt of memory
And we go down to the river today
We pray for silence and we pray for grace
But it’s low now
Still you’re rubbing my face
Into the dirt of memory

          D Bm     A G
In a shop in Al-Medina
      Gmaj7        D    A   G
And a house in the old quarter
                 D     A  Gmaj7
and I'll never sleep again

 E              Gmaj7
Centuries lived in these stones
E                  F#m
I don't think you know

Oh roll the stone or move the mountain
Wake, oh wake, your time has come

Chorus:
And we go down to the river to pray
Pray for magic and another day
But it’s low now
It’s like we’re fading away
Into the dirt of memory

And we go down to the river today
We pray for silence and we pray for grace
But it’s low now
Still you’re rubbing my face
Into the dirt of memory
