Rana The Fortunate Chords

[Verse 1: Joshua Burnside]
Am    Em       F      C
Thrown in to a golden cage
Am    Em      F      C
Renamed the breeder of grace but
Am    Em      F       C
All the finest silk of the land
         Am         Em     F         C
Couldn't tie up my arms, tie up my hands
 
 
[Verse 2: Laura Quirke]
Am    Em      F     C
As for all the sweet perfume
Am     Em       F     C
And for all the flesh consumed
Am             Em         F     C
Nothing could change yes that I knew
             Am      Em     F        C
And by the grace of he went I
Am Em F C
Oh oh
 
 
[Verse 3: Joshua Burnside]
Am      Em       F           C
I have known the pleasures of man
Am         Em         F       C
The honey spilled over my hands
Am         Em      F      C
And now an angry god commands
Am           Em        F     C
Blood on the altar
 
 
[Verse 4: Laura Quirke]
Am    Em       F        C
As the drunken soldiers slept
Am          Em    F        C
Through the palace gardens I crept
Am    Em       F          C
On a throne of feathers I have slept
Am          Em        F     C
But now I am awake
 
 
[Bridge: Joshua Burnside, Joshua Burnside & Laura Quirke]
 D               F
And all along
D                  C
The dunes of the Dardanelles
 
A holy rifle on my shoulder
 
And
          C          G        F
50 pounds sterling
              C      G        F
I kept in my pocket
             C         G    F
I know very soon will
                  Am Em F C
Be of no use to me
                  Am Em F C
Be of no use to me
 
 
[Chorus: Joshua Burnside & Laura Quirke]
Am                 Em
Rolled through the night
F                C
On a truck to the coast
Am       Em     F        C
The arrows of Ulgen above us
Am          Em          F          C
I’ll sway my hips to the beat of the bombs
      Am         Em      F     C
And salute the fallen
Am    Em     D     C
Oh the joy to hear it
  Am        Em             F       C
So lonesome you wouldn't believe it
Am         Em        F          C
As all the world is born again
Am   Em       F          C
Naked and wailing
