Two Gallants - Some slender rest

^CAnd I'm a go make m^Gy bed ^F Tuck in the other s^Cide These confessions are m^Gine ^F But I'll not claim a w^Cord

^CThis restless parade Yes I watched it go b^Fy Through the cracks in my p^Calm Seen them all go^Gne Some sequence of li^Cves

^CWell she calls out alone With the pain in her v^Foice It's the wound of b^Cetrayal It's the weapon of ch^Goice

Left her heart on disp^Clay Though that she'll ^Fdeny Two tattoos of s^Ckin One of ice one of t^Gin For the days have gone ^Cby ^C7

But^Am I ain't o^Fne to reminis^Cce But c^Amlose my h^Feart and clench my f^Cists ^G

Now the days swiftly p^Cass With the chest full of f^Fear Here the minutes are h^Cours But the moments are y^Gears

And old acquaintances p^Cassed In trios, in p^Fairs And if they stay or they ^Cgo One struggles to k^Gnow One struggles to c^Care ^C7

But ^Amout beyon^Fd the Ten Tree w^Calls The w^Amind blows h^Fard the highway c^Crawls

And if ^Amyou should p^Fass the J^Cames Hot^Gel P^Amlease stop ^Cin for I k^Gnew you w^Fell But t^Amhat was ^Foh so long ^Cago And I ^Amnever l^Fearned how to let ^Cgo ^G

But when you fear your own f^Caults And you're sick of this l^Fife When you're reckless of h^Cand And trembling the k^Gnife And all your doors prefer l^Cocks And your death prefers s^Fpoons Why wouldn't you w^Cait one last laugh at f^Gate Forever's too s^Coon ^C7

But a^Amcross the f^Field death bell k^Cnells Listen c^Amlose he^Far the toll t^Cell

To ^Amrun and t^Fell my d^Carling t^Grue My b^Amreath is s^Chort My d^Gays are f^Few So p^Amlease come ^Gdown And t^Fake my h^Gand My l^Amast dema^Gnd And l^Amead me ^Fto some slender r^Cest And p^Amlease dismi^Fss what I conf^Cess ^G
