The Man With The Axe - Lorde | Guitar Chords

[Verse 1]
---------------------
A                    E
If I had to break it down
             G#m     A                Asus2
I'd say it's the way you love to dance
Am              E                          C#m
Movin' the furniture when my back is turned
B7
The flick of the lights and the world falls away

[Chorus (1)]
---------------------
           A                 E
And your office job and your silver hair
              G#m                A                         Asus2
But our shapes   in the dark are the reason I've stayed For
   Am      E
all  these years

[Verse 2]
---------------------
C#m B7  A                   E                     G#m
      I thought I was a genius, but now I'm twentytwo
    A               Asus2     Am                       E
And it's startin' to     feel like all I know how to do is
                      C#m       B7
Put on a suit and take   it away

[Chorus (2)]
---------------------
            A                      E
With my fistful of tunes that it's painful to play
   G#m                 A                  Asus2
Fingernail worlds like favourite seashells
Am              E                         C#m B7
They fill up my nights and then they float   away

[Verse 3]
---------------------
         A                           E
I've got hundreds of gowns, I've got paintings in frames
      G#m                           A                Asus2
And a throat that fills with panic every festival day
Am                 E                        C#m   B7
Dutifully fallin' apart for the Princess of Norway

[Chorus (3)]
---------------------
       A          E                     G#m    A      Asus2
But you with your doll's lashes, your infinite Tshirts
Am                          E                        C#m
I should've known when your favourite record was the same as my father's
      B7
You'd take me down

[Verse 4]
---------------------
  A                         E
I guess I'll always be this way
               G#m              A               Asus2
Swallowed up by   the words and halfway to space
Am               E                          C#m
But there by the fire, you offered your hand
         B7
And as I took it, I loved you, the boy with the plan

[Chorus (4)]
---------------------
F#            B              F# B
You felled me clean as a pine
       F#         B               D E           F# B F# B
The man  with the axe and the look   in his eyes

[Outro]
---------------------
F#                         B
We've been through so many hard times
                  F#              B
I'm writin' a love  song for you, baby
F# | B | F#
