Charmer


From the album ”Charmer” 2012

G             Em       C
When you’re a charmer 
G           Em F C
the apples fall 
    G                        E
and you’re quite the little collector 
D            C
you got ‘em all 

G             Em       C
When you’re a charmer 
G        Em  F  C
people respond    
     G              D         Em
they can’t see the hidden agenda 
D              C - 
you got going on 

Em                  C          G          
But when you’re weak it’s the Holy Grail 
Em                  C          G      
you’re two for one, it’s a fire sale 
Em                  C          G       D 
and that’s a wall that you cannot scale 
Em                   C         G      D
so you’re forced to burrow under 

Intro repeted

G             Em       C
When you’re a charmer 
G             Em F C
the world applauds 
      G                 D    Em      
they don’t know that secretly charmers 
D                 C
feel like they’re frauds 

G             Em      C
When you’re a charmer 
G          Em F C
you hate yourself 
  G         D               E
a victim of sideshow hypnosis 
     D        C
like everyone else 

E             C              G          
and then your thinking goes black and white
E              C            G   
and you’re all hunger and appetite 
E         C          G     D
this is a battle you cannot fight 
E       C    G        D
no, you only can surrender
E       C    G         D
no, you only can surrender
