Verse

Fmaj7-5 Em Fmaj7-5 He kneels beside her once more, whispers of promise Em A Am Bm Em "Next time I'll break every bone in your body.". F G A And the well-wishers let the devil in. F G A And if the river ran dry they'd deny it happening.

Chorus

Em Fmaj7-5 Em When the poets dreamed of angels, what did they see? A Am Dsus2 Fmaj7-5 History lined up in a flash on their backs. Em Fmaj7-5 Em When the poets dreamed of angels, what did they see? A Am Dsus2 Fmaj7-5 The Bishops and knights well placed to attack. Now it should be quite close to how it's played. At least this is how he played the at one live show I watched. Not completely sure about the Bm there, but I think it is it. Tabbed by Kari Kääntä
