E
[Verse 1]
E A A B C#m G#m A
Sunday afternoon, cold as brass
F#m
She came calling
E A A B C#m G#m A
In her subtle smile, firm her grasp
F#m
Had me falling
E A A B C#m G#m A
Underneath her spell, felt the wheels
F#m
Gently crushing
E A B C#m G#m A
On opening her heart she reveals
F#m A
Next to nothing
[Chorus]
C#m F#m B C#m A F#m
And why such high and mighty airs
C#m F#m B C#m G#m A
For there on her hand she wears
F#m A E
Gold and silver
[Verse 2]
E A A B C#m G#m A
Though I have no strength to resist
F#m
I know I ought to
E A A B C#m G#m A
I see her distant form in the mist
F#m
Shaped like fortune
E A A B C#m G#m A
A fear we’ll never lose once her gaze
F#m
Falls upon you
E A A B C#m G#m A
And you cannot break free even if
F#m A
You might want to
[Chorus]
C#m F#m B C#m A F#m
And why such high and mighty airs
C#m F#m B C#m G#m A
For there on her hand she wears
F#m A E
Gold and silver
[Instrumental]
E A A B C#m G#m A F#m
E A A B C#m G#m A F#m
[Verse 3]
E A A B C#m G#m A
Now tell me where I am, I can’t see
F#m
Shines so brightly
E A A B C#m G#m A
Someone in your past holds her key
F#m
Oh so tightly
E A A B C#m G#m A
Or maybe he’s still here, out of view
F#m
Quietly waiting
E A A B C#m G#m A
Watching as I chase after you
F#m A
Holds his hate in
[Chorus]
C#m F#m B C#m A F#m
And why such high and mighty airs
C#m F#m B C#m G#m A
For there on her hand she wears
F#m A
Gold and silver
A
Gold and silver
A
Gold and silver
E
