This is one of my favourite Kate Rusby songs; This isn't the way she plays it - I
couldn't be bothered to figure that out - but this seems to work just fine!
CFGAm
How can you speak when you don't understand,
CFGC
How can you change what is altered,
CFGAm
How can you help when you won't reprimand,
CFGC
And how can you save what has faltered
Chorus:
AmFCG
The beasts on the wing let them fly,
AmFCG
The worlds in a spin let them fly,
FCAmG
And we will watch as they fall,
FGC
And try not to notice at all
CFGAm
How can you share what you've already spent
CFGC
How can you care for the harmless
CFGAm
How can you take when you have no consent
CFGC
We will never be charmed by the charmless
Chorus:
AmFCG
The beasts on the wing let them fly,
AmFCG
The worlds in a spin let them fly,
FCAmG
And we will watch as they fall,
FGC
And try not to notice at all
CFGAm
How can you talk of the great and the good
CFGC
When all that we hear is deceiving
CFGAm
How can we find what you never could
CFGC
Oh don't let us stop you from leaving
Chorus:
AmFCG
The beasts on the wing let them fly,
AmFCG
The worlds in a spin let them fly,
FCAmG
And we will watch as they fall,
FGC
And try not to notice at all
CFGAm
How can you speak of damnation and fire
CFGC
When all that we hear is misleading
CFGAm
We all know you speak with the tone of a liar
CFGC
You will never be one we believe in
Chorus:
AmFCG
The beasts on the wing let them fly,
AmFCG
The worlds in a spin let them fly,
FCAmG
And we will watch as they fall,
FGC
And try not to notice at all
