Said the Whale The Gift of a Black Heart Lyrics

The strumming's not too hard to figure out, so I just wrote the chords to keep it simple
I play the little lead/solo bit between verses/choruses with my pinky while
playing the chords, but I'll edit this with the actual tab if anyone wants it
or can't figure it out
the second verse is just bass/keys/drums with no guitar, but if you want to
play the chords along anyway, they're the same as the first verse. thats
where i put the '*'
anyway, here it is..a really good song thats really fun to play
you are the girl with a black heeeeart
you are the stars; you are the giiirl with a bright light, yeah I see it shine
you find yourself wrapped up in a black art
you bear the scars, you are the giiirl with a black heart, yeah I see it shine
I watch your sun set and then you lift the moon
into a sky on fire, and the colours that you choose, to court and spark, oh!
to ignite the daark
burnin up in the bright liight of your black heart
your black heaaaarrt
you shrug the coat off of your shoulders
your bones harden in the breeze
billowing smoke, white ghosts are bowed ribbons
through the shivering leaves
D#m N.C. Bm C# D#m
you breathe a big wind. you sing of ice and snow
shutting up them hungry dogs
you come and bury their bones
you bathe them bright white in the shadows
burning up in the bright light of your black heart
your black heaaaaarrt
and i want you to believe everything that i say
and i want you to believe in the good that you do, yeah
and the beauty of a black heart, is the light shining through
and the light is you
and the light is yoooooooou
and the light is you
enjoy :)
