Powder

F

[Verse 1]
                G
    Were we the hammer
                   Am
    Were we the powder
D                                 
    Were we the cold evening air
  D

F                G
     Were we the wild geese
                Am           Em
    Were we the tall trees
D                                 D
    Were we the shot in the air


[Chorus]
Continues after the ad
F              C               F
    And the background noise
C        Am           Em
    Goes fading now
C      E                F
    No sounds, just the quiver of a 
lip
D
    Even the moon’s half holding 
back


[Verse 2]
F              G          Am     Em
   Look, we’re falling so easy
D
    Like the rain in the dirty south
F        G                Am     Em
    Justified for the fighting
D
    Were we living in the lion’s 
mouth?


[Chorus]
F              C               F
    And the background noise
C        Am           Em
    Goes fading now
C      E                F
    No sounds, just the quiver of a 
lip
D                              
    Even the moon’s half holding 
         D
back
