--Intro--
G D# A# C
A# C D# D#
G D#
Your class, your caste, your country, sect, your name or your tribe
A# C
There's people always dying trying to keep them alive
A# C
There are bodies decomposing in containers tonight
D# D#
In an abandoned building where
G D#
The squatters made a mural of a Mexican girl
A# C
With 15 cans of spray paint in a chemical swirl
A# C
She's standing in the ashes at the end of the world
D#
Four winds blowing through her hair
C F C F
But when great Satan's gone, the Whore of Babylon
D# A# D# A#
She just can't sustain, the pressure where it's placed
C (C) F (F)
She caves She caves...
--Interlude--
G D# A# C
A# C D# D#
G D#
The Bible's blind, the Torah's deaf, the Qu'ran is mute
A# C
If you burned them all together you'd get close to the truth
A# C
Still, they're pouring over sanskrit under ivy league moons
D# (D#)
While shadows lengthen in the sun
[ Tab from: https://www.guitartabs.cc/tabs/k/killers/four_winds_crd.html ]
G D#
Cast on a school of meditation built to soften the times
A# C
And hold us at the center while the spiral unwinds
A# C
It's knocking over fences, crossing property lines
D# (D#)
Four winds, cry until it comes
C F C F
And it's the Sum of Man, Slouching towards Bethlehem
D# A# D# A#
A heart just can't contain, All of that empty space
C (C) F (F)
It breaks, it breaks... It breaks!
--Interlude--
G D# A# C
A# C D# D#
G D#
Well I went back by rented Cadillac and company jet
A# C
Like a newly orphaned refugee retracing my steps
A# C
All the way to Cassadega to commune with the dead
D# (D#)
They said, "You'd better look alive"
G D#
Now it's off to old Dakota where a genocide sleeps
A# C
In the Black Hills, the Badlands, the calloused East
A# C
I've buried my ballast, I made my peace
D# (D#)
Heard four winds leveling the pines
C F C F
But when great Satan's gone, The whore of Babylon
D# A# D# A#
She just can't remain, With all that outer space
C (C) D (D) C F A# F
She breaks, she breaks, she caves, she caves
C (C) F (F)
She breaks You'd better look alive
--Outro--
G D# A# C
A# C D# D#
G D# A# C
A# C D# D# (fade out)
Thats it, thanks for watching!
Cheers...
