Radical Face - West: chords

G#m
Familiar ground's a distant thing
          F#
When you travel vague and crooked roads
         E
And the sun's a scab on vacant skies
       Dsus4                    D#
Now we always hope we're still alone

There's too much time for idle minds
Imagination's armed with hooks and knives
We count our fears to pass the time
Tired or not, don't close your eyes

Chorus:
            B
A picket fence
           F#
A painted house
          E
A quiet life
                        B
One where our days are calm
     F#                   E
And night's are spent in kind
               B         F#
One where our hopes and dreams
     G#m         E
Are attainable things
                      G#m
One where time can't reach

Gain half the plains now
Cut mountain chains down
Sleep when you can

Chorus:
You can't know how the night's fall
Things will be better there
Things will be good there
Don't stop to think
Just chase the dream we're chasing
I smell the fireplace
Warm light, a warm face
A quiet life
A life, a life, a life, a life
A life along the breeze

G#m
The dogs came at midnight
Guns drawn and eye's bright
E
I heard them laughin'
               F#
Black voices scratchin'
G#m
Black wind they move like
Our lives ain't worth the millions
E
As dog's tear the canvas
              F#
Flies on the carcass
E                        F#
But it buys the time we need

G#m
The dogs came at midnight
The dogs came at midnight
The dogs came at midnight
And I always hear them laughing
