King And Cross Chords

   
Possible chord shapes:

 Amaj7(/E)     B6       C#m7      F#m9      E/G#
e|---0---------4---------4---------4--------4--|
B|---2---------4---------5---------2--------5--|
G|---1---------4---------4---------2--------4--|
D|---2---------4---------6---------2--------6--|
A|---0---------2---------4---------4--------7--|
E|--(0)--------x---------x---------2--------4--|

Some of the specific chord shapes are probably inaccurate, but I think the basic chords 
are correct.
In the studio recording of the song the 5th, 4th and 3rd strings are generally loudest - 
the high e string is barely audible.

Verse:
[ch]Amaj7/E[/ch]    B6        C#m7            F#m9
Glistening nighttime dew, and she is walking with me.

[ch]Amaj7/E[/ch]  B6       C#m7   F#m9
From the house of red, I hear a child crying.

[ch]Amaj7/E[/ch] B6      C#m7        F#m9
Foxes   heading home, their prey hangs from their jaws.

And the forest knows, but it won’t share the secret.


Chorus:
[ch]Amaj7/E[/ch]  B6         C#m7
When the king takes sides,

F#m9                 [ch]Amaj7/E[/ch]  B6         C#m7
Leaving moral minds; soldiers take their share.

Nighthawks seem to sense that now     is the time.

Deep inside them burns the raging  fire of life.

He'll take back what he owns.

[ch]Amaj7/E[/ch] B6     C#m7        F#m9
Fortres-ses of stone, turn into crystal tears

[ch]Amaj7/E[/ch]    B6       C#m7        F#m9
Soothed by southern winds; I’ve found my strength now.

[ch]Amaj7/E[/ch] B6   C#m7       F#m9
And no- body knows, and we must keep their secret.
