Trampled By Turtles - Like An Empty House

no capo
it sounds more like the real song if you walk up and down when transitioning to C – G and G – C

intro : G , C , G F , C

verse 1

G
they came through the town

C
and you conquered the world

Em D C
and the last i saw was the smoke in the wind

G
like an empty house

C
thats ready to burn

Em D C
its the end of the day let the night begin

chorus 1

D C G
slowin trouble wont you come back to me

D change to D7
cause im not the same anymore

G C G
hallelujah im on my knees

F C
knockin at your door

verse 2
you show up late

with a handful of rust ( ? )

the low sun winding the thread on the walls ( ? )

and if you cant trust me

then who can you trust

with a truce in the mirror and theres hope on the wall

chorus 2
lonesome but friendly cant you see youre on your own

and your pockets dont need a thing

hallelujah im on my knees

wont you let me in

verse 3
you wake me up

with the life on the line

and theres no chance of ever coming back

and if the world is flat

and there aint no time

to pick up all of the nails and glass

chorus 3
D ( ring out )
dont you tell me honey that your heart is mine
D ( start strum )
just tell me how to make it last

hallelujah im on my knees

girl our time has passed
