C#
If you can see me I can see you
E - Fm
E
I could wear your new blue shoes
E
I should wear your old red dress
E
And walk to the crossroads
E
So take this knife
Fm
And meet me across the river
E
Just chutes and ladders and this is the kiss
E
American Anna, fantastic Alsatian
E
From nowhere to nothing
Fm
And I go way back
E
Children swarm like thousands of bugs
E
Towards the lights the beacons above the hill
E Fm
The stars to the West, the South, the North and to the East
F# G#
Now you could say I've got a gift of sorts
A#m G#
A fear of rear windows and swinging doors
A#m C
A love of violence and dread of sighs
C#
If you can see me I can see you
C#
If you can see me I can see you
E - Fm
E
I have seen these bairns wave their fists at God
E
Swear to destroy the beasts, stamping the ground
Fm
In their excitement for tomorrow
E
I could wear your new blue shoes
E
I should wear your old red dress
E
And walk to the crossroads
E
So take this knife
Fm
And meet me across the river
F# G#
I will take your lands and all that lays beneath
A#m G#
The dust of cold flowers, prison of dark of ashes
A#m C
I will slaughter your kind who descend from belief
C#
I am the spirit of greed, a lord of theft
C#
I'll burn all your books and the problems they make
C#
If you can see me I can see you
C#
If you can see me.
