Before

Intro: Bm E G A

          Bm
There's a place I'd go
          E
Before it all broke down
          G
Where we carried on and carried the fire
            A
But managed not to burn the sea or the town

          Bm                 B*
Before we sharpened up our teeth
           E
Before the crash and the shame
             G
When I could still hear your voice
          A
When your tongue still knew my name

        D
But you left me there
            Bm
With just a memory
         C
How do I feel your love
               G                   A
Adrift on this plastic plague of a sea?
        Bm         A            G              B* - D
Is this all of the grace you'll allow?


(small riff - if anybody can tab it I'll gladly put it here)
(Chord Strumming)

        Bm         B*
I would kneel down low
      E
Under stained glass light
              G
To taste your body to taste your blood
               A
Then count the minutes till we'd reunite

           Bm          B*
Before the gulf turned black
            E
Before this town got too close to the flames
             G
When I would wait at the door like a dog
           A
For you to wrap your tongue 'round my name


        D
But you left me here
     Bm        B*
With just a memory
         C
How do I feel your love
               G                   A
Adrift on this plastic plague of a sea

        D
But you left me here
     Bm        B*
With just a memory
         C
How do I feel your love
               G                 A
Adrift on this plastic sickening sea

        Bm         A         G
Is this all of the grace you allow?
  Bm         A              G           D
I begged you before and I'm begging you now
         Bm           A            G
Will the slaughter convince you to stay?
    Bm             A                 G        D          A
The cross wouldn't hold you but this time you won't get away


G  A  D
F#m  G  D  A
F#  G  D  A


D
I'll leave you here
     F#m
Just a memory
             G             D
You will not feel, feel my love
               A
Adrift on this plastic sickening sea

D
I'll leave you here
     Bm
Just a memory
             C
You will not feel, feel my love
               G                 A
Adrift on this plastic sickening sea

        Bm         A          G
This is all of the grace I'll allow
    E                A               G          D
I begged you before, I'm not begging you now
      G            A          G
The slaughter convinced me to stay
    E           G            D         A
But this time, this time you won't get away

You won't get away
