Palace Chords & Lyrics by The Antlers
Palace
guitar chords lyrics
It's the same chord progression through-out the whole song.
Intro:
F#m E D A
F#m
You were simpler,
E D A
you were lighter when we thought like little kids.
F#m E
Like a weightless, hate-less animal,
D A
beautifully oblivious before you were hid
F#m E
inside a stranger you grew into,
D A
as you learned to disconnect.
F#m E
Now he hangs your mirrors separately,
D A
so one can’t show you what the other reflects.
Interlude:
F#m E D A
F#m E
When he heard I was on his tail, he
D A
emptied your account
F#m E
and hid a part of you that’s so invaluable
D A
(the part of you unsellable at any amount).
F#m E
He left the tallest peak of your paradise
D A
buried in the bottom of a canyon in hell,
F#m E
but I swear I’ll find your light in the middle,
D A
where there’s so little late at night, down in the pit of the well.
F#m E
Then when heaven has a line around the corner,
D A
we shouldn’t have to wait around and hope to get in
F#m E
if we can carpenter a home in our heart right now
D A
and carve a palace from within.
F#m E
We won’t need to take a ton of pictures,
D A
It won’t be easy to believe
F#m E D A
the day we wake inside a secret place that everyone can see.
End with:
F#m E D A
