Half Gate Chords & Lyrics by Grizzly Bear
Half Gate
guitar chords lyrics
Strumming is important for this song, especially during the verses, so listen to
it to get a feel of it.
Standard Tuning
Capo 5
Intro (Chords strummed twice each):
G Bm Bb Dm
*Switches to faster strumming*
C (On every fourth strum you can move your middle finger up to the G string 2nd
fret to create the same hammer-on effect Rossen does)
F
Past the roaring shore
Em C
I have nothing left to hear
F
I'm chasing all the words
Em C
But everything you say I only see
F
But honestly it's fine
Em Dm C
When I mention how I love you
Dm C Em
It's all I do, even as I stray
C
F
We have the cold to keep
Em C
I'm not sure I still believe
F
My most is nothing more
Em C
Than a place we've been before
F
We'll draw and drag it on
Em
I'm telling you I'm trying
Dm C
To hear this out
Dm C
I want nothing more to doubt
Bm
A little bit of shame
Bb C G
Which of yourselves is truly gone?
Bm
And checked out so long
Bb Dm
Unhinged, unwound
G Bm
Come help me on
Bb Dm
To let lie what's done
G Bm
In some great beyond
Bb Dm G Bm Bb Dm (Intro again)
You're still there, still as you were
C
F
At the end of the line
Em C
It is as if there's no time at all
F
Nothing left to win
Em C
Every pleasure burned to the wick
F
Content to be alone
Em Dm C
A quiet picture drawn each day before it ends
Dm C
To remind me once again
Bm
Why I'm even here
Bb C G
Which of yourselves is truly gone?
Bm
And checked out so long
Bb Dm
Unhinged, unwound
G Bm
Come help me on
Bb Dm
To let lie what's done
G Bm
In some great beyond
Bb Dm G
You're still there, still as you were
G Bm Bb Dm x3
End on G
