Intro
Verse
The Shins are the Indie rock band fronted by James Mercer. PORT OF MORROW is the first studio album from the Shins in 5 years. All 3 previous Shins albums have been certified GOLD.
Through the rain and all the clatter
Under the Fremont bridge I saw a pigeon fly
Fly in fear from the raptor come to take its life
And as it closed in for the capture
I funnelled the fear through my ancient eyes
To see in flight, what I know are
The bitter mechanics of life
Under my hat it reads 'the lines are all imagined'
A fact of life I know to hide from my little girls
I know my place amongst the bugs and all the animals
And it's from these ordinary people
You are longing to be free
My hotel and on the TV
A preacher on the stage like a buzzard cries
Our a warning of phony sorrow. He's trying to get a rise.
The cyanide of an almond
Let him look at your hands, get the angles right
Ace of spades, Port of Morrow, life is death is life.
I saw a photograph; Cologne in 27
And then a postcard after the bombs in 45
Must have been a world of evil clowns that let it happen
But now I recognise, dear listeners,
That you were there and so was I
Instrumental break
(whole break x2)
Under my hat I know the lines are all imagined
A fact of life I must impress on my little girls
I know my place amongst the creatures in the pageant
And there are flowers in the garbage
And a skull under your curls
Instrumental break
Repeat instrumental break until fade.
Note: I initially had the verse second part of the verse chords as
Ace of spades, Port of Morrow, life is death is life.
for example, with another A in place of the F. It sounded right to me, but I went
by the bass and used an F, part of me is still unsure about it.
