The Shade of Poison Trees





I suggest bar chords



And thanks to the tab before this one. it gave me a base to work off of.



Intro:

F#       B

             F#                   G#m

Why do you speak with that accent now?

           E                         B

Everyone knows you're not from the streets.

             F#                       G#m 

You went to prep school in Cambridge,

                    E                       B

With daughters and sons of the privileged elite.

                                        G#m

Their fortunes from shipping and industry,

                   E                   B

Their futures in yacht clubs and tails.

                F#                    G#m

So why do you speak with that accent now?

           E                         G#m

Everyone knows you're moonlighting here.



                            E

To avail yourself of your heritage,

                            B

For a season or two in the sun.

                                 F#

Draw well from the funds in the trust,

                                    G#m

Thanks to the fathers of fortunate sons,

                          E

For us it's a matter of charging the gates

                          B            F#

For you it's a matter of blood and connections

     B           F#                  B              

Of blood and connections. 



               F#                      G#m

So who do you fool with that costume now?

           E                       B

Everyone knows you're not who you seem

               F#               G#m

You've got a hard way about you

                   E                  G#m

For someone whose passage is already paid



                                      E

By the sins and the schemes of your father

                               B

And the infinite reach of his arm

                                 F#

Draw well from the funds in the trust,

                                    G#m

Thanks to the fathers of fortunate sons,

                           E

For us it's a matter of charging the gates

                           B

For you it's a matter of blood

                                 F#

Drink well from your bottomless cup

                        G#m

And bask in your good fortune

                          E

For us it's a matter of charging the gates

                          F#            G#m   

For you it's a matter of blood and connections



                                           B

So where will you be when you tire of the fun

                                               E

The escape, the charade, and your time in the sun

                                     B     

I know everyone does their own reinvention

                  F#                   G#m

But yours has a taste that's hard to swallow

                                           B

And what will you tell of your tenure with us?

                                                   E

Will you build yourself up, like the size of your hunt?

                                                  B

If they're anything like what you've been telling us,

                    F#

Those stories will make true believers

                         B

Of the chumps and the fools.



                F#                   G#m

So why do you speak with that accent now?

           E                          B  

Everyone knows you're not from the streets.
