Knock Me On The Head Chords
My tab for Stornoway's Knock Me On The Head from their new album Tales From Terra-Firma.
I think it's pretty accurate, only did it by ear. The E's in verses are played at
the 7th fret, except for ones before the A7 which are played non-bar version.
Any requests/suggestions/comment post below or email debeaumont.louis@googlemail.com
Chords in brackets means they're not played but that's what fits.
Tuning: D# G# C# F# A# D# (half step down from standard)
Intro: E G#m E G#m B Dm D#m
D#m E B
There's a hunger in the air and lemons swollen in the trees
D#m D#m7 E C#m G#m E A7/G F#
When shadows fall across the moon, I strain my ears towards the breeze

Withered limbs under the sand for an hourglass eternity

You hung an albatross around my neck
B C#m G#m
When you needed to knock me on the head and say
G F#
"No! No! No! No!"
D#m E A B
Jackal legs and kangal dogs are cloaked in darkest forestry

A woman dangles from a bridge on a thread of silver mercury
