Skin And Bone Tabulatur von The Mechanisms (für Baryton)

[Verse 1]
   Em
My friends down here I return to you
                          Bm
In the light I did what I went to do
     D                     Em
With my father’s power for peace I sue
    Em     D           Bm       Em
And in the sun there’s room for you

[Chorus]
   Em
Skin and bone, you alone
                        Bm
Don’t hate what you now see
       D                  Em
Though starving fools cry Saxon ghouls
       Em       D      Bm
In the darkness we run free

[Verse 2]
     Em
What care we for your light and sun
                    Bm
In the dark we see, in the black we run
   D                 Em
We use a knife, they use a gun
    Em        D        Bm    Em
And each will kill the other one

[Chorus]
   Em
Skin and bone, you alone
                        Bm
Don’t hate what you now see
       D                  Em
Though starving fools cry Saxon ghouls
       Em       D      Bm
In the darkness we run free

[Verse 3]
  Em
I beg you now this war to cease
                           Bm
They seek the GRAIL in the depths beneath
D              Em
Air and water, shelter and feast
Em     D              Bm         Em
We can share with you if there's peace

[Chorus]
   Em
Skin and bone, you alone
                        Bm
Don’t hate what you now see
       D                  Em
Though starving fools cry Saxon ghouls
       Em       D      Bm
In the darkness we run free

[Verse 4]
     Em
What care we for your wealth and GRAIL
                 Bm
With a sharpened tooth and a jagged nail
      D               Em
We’ve no use for your fairy tale
      Em      D        Bm        Em
Your childish quest is doomed to fail

[Chorus]
   Em
Skin and bone, you alone
                        Bm
Don’t hate what you now see
       D                  Em
Though starving fools cry Saxon ghouls
       Em       D      Bm
In the darkness we run free

[Verse 5]
[overlapping]
Em                                            Bm
We can do without this constant (death is all they know)
D                                            Em
I’ll defend you to my dying (breath is cheap here below)
Em                D                          Bm
Please believe me there’s not much time (you left us but now you show)
      Em                   D
I’ll show you peace, (then we will try)
      Em   D           Bm     Em
We’ll walk beneath the rusted sky
