C/G F "You'll never find a body

C/G E And they claim the past as their
F (F#) own"

Chorus
G7 F "Branded skin, broken vessel
C Am Took a job in the city
F C/G Am Making matchsticks to start other
Am/E F men's fires
Am Am/E F Oh..." Verse (same as above) "Gorgeous blooms on these cliffs Missed a battery of sticks and twigs Gravity toils away" Pre-Chorus
C/G F "Blisters on his hands from tightening ropes all day
C/G F Lashing down all it sees
C/G E But it's poised like a father's
F and not like a king's
C/G E And the rule of the land's more
F like a strong suggestion
C/G E And the strong current begs for
F (F#) the open ocean"
