Coins

	  		Intro: Em 

Verse: 1 
Em 
Thought I was rid of you once 
       F                  Em 
For a couple coins on the table 

Forgetting when you left that day 
     F                       Em 
You were young and angry and able 

I'd hoped I'd seen the last of you 
 F                       Em 
No more would I fetch or cower 

But when I fed you for a tip that day 
     F                         Em 
You were young and hungry for power 



        F               Em 
Then a chill came on a beam of sun 
F           Em 
Natural as a cancer 
  F                       Em 
You would never stop 'til all was won 
      F                    Em 
The young man with all the answers

Verse: 2 
Em 
That shape of love on every face 
F                    Em 
The ghost of loss inside you 

Everyone else was just as lost 
     F                   Em 
And it's sad because you never knew 

Now history is on your side 
F             Em 
Who am I to deny it? 

A fiefdom for your fragile pride 
F                    Em 
And who would dare defy it? 


 
        F               Em 
Then a chill came on a beam of sun 
F           Em 
Natural as a cancer 
  F                       Em 
You would never stop 'til all was won 
      F                    Em 
The young man with all the answers
