The Hands That Thieve

Written by Tomas Kalnoky

	  		

Intro: D Dsus2  

Verse 1: 

            G                Gb 
I felt no guilt till I was caught 
           Em 
And I was told that I was guilty, 
      C                        G          D 
And even then I wasn't really sure, yeah yeah. 
C                       G 
The thing I felt was guilt itself 
D                       Em 
Or maybe it was something else, 
C                                          D 
Frustration at the fact that I was ever caught at all. 
G                   Gb 
I told a lie, I multiplied it 
        Em 
By the time I realized it 
       C                         G          D 
I'd given up everything I ever loved, yeah yeah. 
C 
Cause the thing you left 
G 
When you're looking back, 
D                                          Em 
Is the pressure the feel that you have to act 
          C 
Yeah everything is clearer when  
          B 
You're looking at the past, oh no.

C G And I don't care if I lose because my heroes did too, D Em They shouted, "Court should be adjourned!" Because the jury are fools. C G D And the judge can't decipher his left from his right Or his right from his wrong. C G And we will bite the hand that thieves, D We will not turn the other cheek, this is no threat Em It is a promise we will keep. C G So what's the point pretending when we sit behind D the curtain and there's nothing much to see, oh yeah.

G Gb C D C D G Gb C D C D Verse 2: same chords as 1 G Gb I felt no pain till I was found, Em And I was told that I was bleeding. C G D And even then I knew I wasn't done, yeah yeah. C Cause the wounds I get G They will just collect, D Em Insuring that I won't forget. C Reminders of the battles D That I've lost and that I've won G Gb And I will fight until I have died Em Or until all my enemies are allies C G D And even then I will sleep with an open eye, yeah yeah. C G Cause the night is long and our hooves are strong D Em And I know the road we travel on C It always seems so dark B Because we've almost reached the dawn, Oh no. G Am Em D G Am C D

G Gb C D C D G Gb C D C D Em C And everyone will claim, G D That they knew from the beginning. Em C That what they did was wrong, G D They still just went on sinning. Em The sudden rush you feel C G When realizing everything you know D Will fade away, it haunts you deep, But you won't want to let it go. Em C Someday we'll lose the war, G D But till then we will dream of winning. C G I won't forget, D The things you said, Em Em (Might be A C later) When I was down and I was tired of it. G The words you spoke, D * They brought me hope. C G When it was time to fight, D We chose a side, Em Em But everyone knew that something didn't feel right. G So we stood our ground, D * And waited for a sign. * e|-2----2h3-2-0-2p0-| B|-3----------------| G|-2----------------| D|-0----------------| A|------------------| E|------------------| C G When it was time to fight, D We chose a side, Em Em But everyone knew that something didn't feel right. G So we stood our ground, D And waited for a sign. D You said don't look back! (No, no, no, no...) Don't look back! C G (We won't look back, D We won't look down, Em We've come too far, C We're too high off the ground. G The wheels have turned, D The lessons learned.) You said don't look back! Don't look back!
