Villagers - Becoming A Jackal

villagers / becoming a jackal

this is my first tab for ultimate – guitar , i hope you enjoy it . /holstansen

verse 1 :

Am Am/G D
the most familiar rose
B Em
every implement was leading to you
C G
and your homely sense of dissaray
Dm
never once the same
C C/B Am
always rearranged
Am/G D
but things would never change
B Em
in the seam between the window frame
C G
where the jackals preyed on every soul
Dm
where they tied you to a pole
C C/B G
and stripped you of your clothes

chorus :

( G ) C Bm
i was a dreamer
G C Bm
staring out windows
G C Bm
out onto the main street
Em C Bm
cause that’s where the dream goes

verse 2 :

Am Am/G D
and each time they found fresh meat to chew
B Em
i would turn away and return to you
C G
you would offer me your unmade bed
Dm C
feed me till i’m fed
C/B Am
and read me till i’m read
Am/G D
but when the morning came
B Em
you would catch me at the window again
C G
in an eyes wide open sleeping state
Dm C
staring into space
C/B G
with no look upon my face

chorus :

( G ) C Bm
i was a dreamer
G C Bm
staring out windows
G C Bm
out onto the main street
Em C Bm
cause that’s where the dream goes

bridge :

C G
and when i got older
C G
when i grew bolder
Dm G
out onto the streets i flew
C G
released from your shackles
C G
i danced with the jackals
Dm G
and learned a new way to move

verse 3 :

Am Am/G D
so before you take this song as truth
B Em
you should wonder what i’m taking from you
C G
how i benefit from you being here
Dm C
lending me your ears
C/B G
while i’m selling you my fears

( G ) C Bm
i was a dreamer ( i’m selling you my fears )
G C Bm
staring out windows ( i’m selling you my fears )
G C Bm
out onto the main street ( i’m selling you my fears )
Em C Bm
cause that’s where the dream goes ( i’m selling you . . . )

G C Bm
i was a dreamer
G C Bm
staring out windows
G C Bm
out onto the main street
Em C Bm
cause that’s where the dream goes
