Hot Gates Lyrics

People who know how to play Mumford tracks will be very familiar with this tuning
and the standard Mumford picking style.
Listen to the song for timing, picking and when to strum.
Basic Chords
You can strum the C chord to emulate the piano.
There is no great thing, to stop and sing
Waiting for the rain
And this perfect pill, it's all too much
C F - Am - G SLIDE BETWEEN CHORDS F - Am - G - G - C
On the edge again, don't look away
Couldn't help but note the coldest thing
In your precious face
Why do you always speak when you have no grace
In your precious face
horus
But even in the dark I saw you were the only one alone
But these hot gates you spit your vitriol though your swore you wouldn't do this anymore
And I can't be for you all of the things you want me to
But I will love you constantly There's precious little else to me
And though we cry, we must stay alive
Another fragile edge, and a tender sound
And then you went aground
Near a duller blade, a promise out of sight
There's nothing here for you tonight
horus
But even in the dark I saw you were the only one alone
But these hot gates you spit your vitriol though your swore you wouldn't do this anymore
And I can't be for you all of the things you want me to
But I will love you constantly There's precious little else to me
And though we cry, we must stay alive
ridge
And though we cry, we must stay alive
Let my blood only run out when my world decides
There is no way out of your only life
So run on, run on
