Paolo Nutini - Tricks Of The Trade: chords

        D
Was it love or recognition that
     F#m
has healed this man's condition
     G
I'm hoping and I'm wishing that
      A
this bird won't fly away
 D
We can see life hand in hand,
     F#m
the green, the blue, the rough, the sand
    G
And in our time and in our land
       A
we'll savor everyday

Chorus:
    Em                     D    F#m
And oh, how our glory may fade away, well
     G
at least we've learned
                       A
some things along the way

     D
You took me from my bubble
        F#m
knowing my defense was weak
         G
And you sat there and you listened
     A
any time I chose to speak
      D
you gathered from my pleas to
     F#m
you that I am but a clown
        G                    A
And I fear only a hero can defeat
these demons now

Chorus:
And oh, how our glory may fade away, well
at least we've learned some
tricks of trade

And as time shall inevitably move on,
mmmmh well then
at least we'll have four strong
legs to stand on
To keep us alive...
