Tigers Blood Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[G]You[D] co[C]me [G]ali[D]ve [C]in [G]the heat,[D]
you ain't crossing state [Am]lines
[C]Stood [G]up like a crepe [D]myrtle,
can't be killed or denied
[C]Throw a b[G]rick through the window[D],
leave your mess at my door
[Am]Lord knows soone[G]r or later[D]
it'll wash up to shore
[Am]Lord knows soone[G]r or l[D]ater it'll wash
up [C]to shore[G]
[D][C][G][D]

[Verse 2]
[C]
You're [G]laughing and smil[D]ing,
drove my Jeep through the mud
[C]And your tee[G]th and your ton[D]gue bri[Dsus4]ght
[D]red from tiger's [C]blood
[G]We were young for so [D]long,
seersuckers of time
[Am]Drank some[G]one else's juice[D],
left only the rind
[Am]Drank some[G]one else's juice[D]
and left only [C]the rind

[Verse 3]
And I [G]held [D]it like a penny [C]I found
It [G]might bring [D]me something,
[Dsus4]it might weigh me [D]down[Am]
You've got [G]every ex[D]cuse
[Dsus4]but it's [D]an eerie [G]sound
[Am]Oh, when that [G]siren blow[Dsus4]s,
rings out all [Am]over [G]town[C]
[G][D][Dsus4][D][G][C][G][D]

[Verse 4]
[C]
Named [G]after [D]a city you ain't never
[Am]seen[C][G]
Spellbinding cop[D]perheads
banging a tambour[G]ine
[C]And it's the kis[G]s of [D]death but it's
the only way [Am]out
Galloped [G]up to a mirror,
[D]looked her right in the[G] mouth
[Am]Galloped up to[G] a mirror,
[D]looked her right in the[G] mouth[C]
[G][D][C][G][D]

[Verse 5]
[G][C]
I'd[G]ve skated the surface,
[D]I'd left you[C] alone
By [G]now truer words [D]spoken [Dsus4]like
[D]blood from a s[C]tone
[G]And it fills me [D]with dread but I've
learned [Am]to ignore
The smell [G]of dust that creeps [D]up through
the cracks [Am]in the floor
The smell [G]of dust,
it creeps [D]up through the cracks in [C]the floor

[Verse 6]
And I [G]held [D]it like a [Am]penny [C]I found
It [G]might bring [D]me something,
it might [G]weigh [Am]me down
You've got [G]every ex[D]cuse
but it's an eerie [G]sound
[Am]Oh, when that [G]siren blow[D]s,
rings out all over [G]town[C]
When [G]that siren [D]blows, rings out all [Am]over [G]town[C]
