Weapons
This is far from perfect, missing some parts and I'm sure some of the chords are wrong,
but it's close enough to sound fine with some improvising. Help me out!
Rest in Power Erik

[Verse 1]
Em G
there’s a hole in the wall,
D Am
there’s a light down the hall
C G G
there’s a pest in the system,
D Am
so we’ll surely see it stall
Em G
there’s a knife in my pouch,
D Am
and a hammer in my belt
C G G
there’s a pot on the fire,
C D
so the joy’s yet to be felt
Em G
there’s a home, there’s a well,
D Am
there’s a ringing of the bell
C G
so tonight we’ll feast on treasures
C D
that they could never sell

Em G
spirits sing, spirits fly,
D Am
through the window, see the sky
C G
where the moon calls not for slumber,
C D
but mischief, joy and might
Em D C
so our weapons seem not much to show
Em
but they don’t kill,
D G
they only help us grow
C G D Am C G D
no they won’t kill

[Chorus]
G D
we’ve got our weapons,
Am D
we brew a mighty ale
Am C
the dead were dancing on their graves
G D
as drums and fiddles wail
G D
we've got our weapons,
Am D
we bring them to the stones
Am C
the rituals were beyond words
G D G D
of the wedding of earth and soul
???
[Verse 2]
Em G
there’s a knock at the door,
D Am
well I wonder who it’s for
C G
you gotcha walking stick ready,
C D
there still are different shores
Em G
with a mind in our heads,
D Am
and a heart in our chests
C G
with the world at our boot-tips
C D
our hands hold the rest
Em
I've seen the towers
D C
they build on and up
Em D G
I've got the mirth already in my cup
Em
I've felt the winds
D C
they try to bottle up and sell
Em
I've walked an earth
D G
that they could never kill
no we won’t kill
C G D Am (x2) D C Am D (x2)
????
[Verse 3]
Em G
there’s a hood around my shoulders,
D Am
and a banjo in my hands
C G
as the notes rise like smoke rings,
C D
so with these shall we dance
Em
this is the flicker
G
through the window,
D Am
food is warm in here, it beckons
C G
while outside bites the winter air,
C D D
inside you’ll find our weapons, weapons, weapons...
[Chorus]
G D
we’ve got our weapons,
Am C
we brew a mighty ale
G D
the dead were dancing on their graves
Am D
as drums and fiddles wail
G D
we've got our weapons,
Am C
we bring them to the stones
Em G
the rituals were beyond words
Am D G D
of the wedding of earth and soul
????
[Outro]
x however many times
Em D C
so our weapons seem not much to show
Em
but they don’t kill,
D G
they only help us grow
End on G.
