Swansea Chords

[Chorus]
Bbm    Ab      Fm Db/Bb Gb
if you want to come on down
Bbm   B        Gb     E Db
down with your bones so white
Bbm Ab    Fm        Db/Bb          Gb
and watch while the freight trains pound
Bbm B    Gb    E    Db
into the wild, wild night
Bbm Ab       Fm Db/Bb Gb
how i would love to gnaw
Bbm   B      Gb    E  Db
gnaw on your bones so white
Bbm       Ab         Fm     Db/Bb Gb
and watch while the freight trains paw
Bbm B      Gb    E    Db
paw at the wild, wild night
 
[Verse]
GbM9
All these ghost towns, wreathed in old loam
Ab11/Gb
(Assateague knee-deep in seafoam) —
Bb7
Ho Swansea! Buttonwillow!
Bb9
Lagunitas! Ho Calico!
Gb
And all these beastly bungalows
Bbm
stare, distend, like endless toads —
Db
endlessly hop down the road.
Bbm
Borne by wind, we southward blow.
 
[Verse]
Ab                  Gb
And yonder, wild and blue,
         Ab          Gb
the wild blue yonder looms.
             Bbm          Gb
'Till we are wracked with rheum,
   Ebm             Gb      DbM7
by roads, by songs entombed.
Ab7/Db
And all we want to do
Ab7/Db
is chew, and chew, and chew!
Bbm7 Ebm  DbM7   Gbsus4
Dear one, drive on,
     Bbm
when all we want to do
   Ab7
is chew, and chew, and chew.
 
[Chorus]
Bbm    Ab      Fm Db/Bb Gb
if you want to come on down
Bbm   B        Gb     E Db
down with your bones so white
Bbm Ab    Fm        Db/Bb          Gb
and watch while the freight trains pound
Bbm B    Gb    E    Db
into the wild, wild night
Bbm Ab       Fm Db/Bb Gb
how i would love to gnaw
Bbm   B      Gb    E  Db
gnaw on your bones so white
Bbm       Ab         Fm     Db/Bb Gb
and watch while the freight trains paw
Bbm B      Gb    E    Db
paw at the wild, wild night

paw at the wild, wild night
Bbm B      Gb    E    Db
paw at the wild, wild night.
