State of things
Turin Brakes
VERSE
Blind fold me Tie me up or
tie me down. Yeah take me any-where
Keep your ears close to the ground.
Listen to me but don't die laughing.
All things must end yeah? But
I can see my fate in your eyes
As I'm stitched up by my friends again.
They just can't defend the state of things (Between)
CHORUS
(Between)
you and me
Used to be on fir-e.
VERSE
So slip off your shackles cos
you don't need them where we're go -ing.
See what happens just happens
There ain't no straight lines in the state of things.
So try to cling on for dear life. And
don't forget the world keeps on turning round (despite)
CHORUS
(Despite)
you and me
Used to be on fir-e fir-e
Now look now see where we're going.
I don't know where I'm going
I don't know.
VERSE (+solo) end on Bm7
