Featherweight by Fleet Foxes - Guitar Chords
<< Back to Fleet Foxes Song List
Version 1
The intro guitar riff can be fingerpicked to be more accurate to the studio version but it sounds just
as good simply strummed as well. It is very syncopated but all falls within 2 bars of 4/4 (or 12/8).

[Verse 1]
Em Bm Am7 Bm
All this time I've been hanging on
Em Bm Am7
To an edge I caught when we both were young
Bm Em
That the world I want wasn't near enough
D C
All was distant, always off
[Verse 2]
Em Bm Am7 Bm
In all that war, I'd forgotten how
Em Bm Am7
Many men might die for what I'd renounced
Bm Em
I was staging life as a battleground
D C
No I let that grasping fall
[Chorus 1]
C Cmaj9/B Am7
May the last long year be forgiven
C Cmaj9/B Am7
All that war left within it
C Cmaj9/B Am7 D
I couldn't, though I'm beginning to
C Cmaj9/B Am7
And we've only made it together
C Cmaj9/B Am7
Feel some change in the weather
C Cmaj9/B Am7 D
I couldn't, though I'm beginning to

[Verse 3]
Em Bm Am7 Bm
And though it's all so uncertain cold
Em Bm Am7
All the rafters cracked, all the copper sold
Bm Em
There's a ration back in a manifold
D C
If you need it or forgot
[Chorus 2]
C Cmaj9/B Am7
May the last long year be forgiven
C Cmaj9/B Am7
All that war left within it
C Cmaj9/B Am7 D
I couldn't, though I'm beginning to
C Cmaj9/B Am7
And we've only made it together
C Cmaj9/B Am7
Feel some change in the weather
C Cmaj9/B Am7 D
I couldn't, though I'm beginning to
[Bridge 2]
Am/C Cmaj7/G Bm Am7
And somehow I see eee
Cmaj7 Bm Am7
It's free eee
Em Bm Am Bm
Em Bm Am
[Chorus 3]
C Cmaj9/B Am7
And with love and hate in the balance
C Cmaj9/B Am7
One last way past the malice
C Cmaj9/B Am7 D
One warm day's all I really need
C Cmaj9/B Am7
And with love and hate in the balance
C Cmaj9/B Am7
One last way past the malice
C Cmaj9/B Am7 D
One warm day's all I really need
