Blues From Down Here TV on the Radio
Song: Blues from down here
From the[A] depths[G] I[C] called[G] you, ma
for your[A] breath [G]and breast so[C] warm and fabled[G]
Your[A] hands[G] reached in[C]side[G]
grabbed my[A] heart,[G] enlarged, [C]disabled[G]
[E] Hailed [G]for you[A]r mercy
[E] An [G]ear th[A]at cares[C]
[C] How the[D] blues sound [E]from up t[A]here?
With my wet[G] hair,[C] I wipe the[G] blood off of your fee[A]t
[G]Carry me through these[C] shark infested[G] waters
Well you[A] spared[G] me from s[C]laughter for sur[G]e,
but these sha[A]rks a[G]re equally in n[C]eed of a m[G]artyr
[E] Oh k[G]indness [A]shared
[E] Undeserved p[G]urest [A]gift, this life you [C]spared
[C] How the[D] blues sound [E]from up t[A]here?
Teeth gnashing, masticating this dumb tongue
Quiet now, quiet now, hear that supplication
echo into the void
been recieved by no one
[E] Oh m[G]y sweet [A]dear
[E] Cold alone [G]poisoning o[A]urselves
engulfed in our[C] own tears
[C] Signed,[D] blues f[E]rom down [A]here.

[G] [C] Pull the pin, drop it in, [G]let it wash away your sin*

C D E A B C > This is the instrumental part based on the bass
[C]Time for your favorite story
of how to achieve golden glory
Wash yourself all squeaky clean
all in white all Hallow's Eve
Lessen your desire
hold your breath so patiently
never inquire how to be free
[A] Just stay on [G]your k[A]nees
You might [G]doubt it[C] [G]
[A] think there's nothing le[G]ft for me
to [C]do but stomp my [G]feet
and shout abo[A]ut it
[G] From the de[C]pths I cal[G]led you.[A]
[G] Now I'm [C]waiting for an a[G]nswer patiently[A]
[G]Stuck here at the [C]bottom of this [G]well[A]
It's not the [G]last you've[C] hea[G]rd from me[A] [G] [C] [G] [A] [B]
