Persona Non Grata by Bright Eyes - Guitar Chords

<< Back to Bright Eyes Song List

Version 1 Version 2

            [Verse 1]
Bm
Getting dressed for a date
         G
Put on blue aftershave
         D
Wore a kilt like a Celt
        F#
Hid the way that I felt

        Bm
Combat boots, fallen leaves
         G
West Village, Halloween
       D
To a Bollywood song
          F#
Taking shots 'till we're gone

     Bm
Unwelcome in the autumn
     G
Persona Non Grata
         D
I'm  the last of the best
           F#m
I'm  your thoughts in the swamp

           Bm
There's a playground of children
         G
In the shadows of buildings
           D
There's a line out the church
             F#
Where your homelessness works

            Bm
Where the stain glass of crimson
      G
Meets Ezekiel's Visions
      F#m
Saw a valley of bones
         A
Where no man shall be saved


[Chorus]
         D                                 G
And now you, you come to me, asking that
          D                                     G
And now you, you come to me, and you're asking that
   A
Oh how can we reconcile?

[Verse 2]
         Bm
Left your innocence there
      G
In Tiananmen Square
         D
You were filled with despair
      F#
Underfed and depressed

       Bm
Vacant lot where a prison stood
G
God knows you never would
D
Lie to yourself
       F#
But you do every time

       Bm
Made a life of deception
     G
And passive aggression
        D
Going to scream when I sing
          F#m
Going to die in the ring

        Bm
Turn me on, you're a knockout
      G
Climb up on to my cloud
          F#
Do your worst to me now
        A
Before I change my mind


[Chorus]
     G                  D        A        Bm
Now you, you want to be true, to me once again
    G                 D        Am       G
And you want me to be true, to you once again
         G                  D        A        Bm
Oh yeah you, you want to be true, to me once again
    G                 D         Am      G
And you want me to be true, to you once again
