Uummannaq Song

          Bm
Hold your fire
           D            E         
I'm coming out and I'll tell you 
   Bm
the truth
      D         E        Bm
I was trying to raise my roof
        A
Did you see it
       G      A  Bm
That I needed to prove
        D       E      Bm
That my stinger always stays
               D         E        
You said she's beautiful when she 
Bm
plays
      D              E      A
Did I hit you in the proper place
A
   Suddenly

G          A                    F#m
I, oh well I could live in this town
     G
Five cold years before I
    A                    F#m
Yes I could live in this town
G
Before I head for home

Bm D E (2x)

Verse 2
        Bm
It's my turn
         D         E         Bm
With the spotlight burning a hole
       D            E       Bm
But my bird-heart's turning cold
       A           G     A   Bm
As the temperature rises all around
       D          E       Bm
To the sound of a ticking bomb
              D        E           
And then it's not just showing off 
Bm
here
Continues after the ad
         D       E               
You know there's something going on 
A
here
      A
Going on here

Suddenly

G          A                    F#m
I, oh well I could live in this town
     G
Five cold years before I
    A                    F#m
Yes I could live in this town
G
Five cold years
    A                    F#m
Yes I could live in this town
      G
Five cold years before I
     A                    F#m
Well I could live in this town
G
Before I head for home

Bridge
(mute)
And considered it odd
            Bm
That I ever stayed
     A
ever stayed
            Bm
That I ever stayed
     A
ever stayed
            Bm
That I ever stayed
     A
ever stayed
            Bm
That I ever stayed
     A
ever stayed
              Bm
You know that feeling you get
         E             D
when you don't want to leave
     Bm
That feeling you get
         E             D
when you don't want to leave
     Bm
That feeling when you don't want to 
leave
