Bastille - These Streets
(*) x2
These streets are yours, you can keep them
I don't want them
They pull me back, and I surrender
To the memories I run from
()
Oh, we have paved these streets
()
With moments of defeat
But even if we won't admit it to ourselves
We'll walk upon these streets and think of little else
So I won't show my face here anymore
I won't show my face here anymore
These streets are yours, you can keep them
(*)
In my mind it's like you haunt them
And passing through I think I see you
In the shapes of other women
()
Oh, we have stained these walls
()
With our mistakes and flaws
But even if we won't admit it to ourselves
We'll walk upon these streets and think of little else
So I won't show my face here anymore
I won't show my face here anymore
(*)
(*)
All that's left behind
Is a shadow on my mind
Oh, a shadow cast upon a wall is silhouette and nothing more
But it's all that's left behind
But even if we won't admit it to ourselves
We'll walk upon these streets and think of little else
So I won't show my face here anymore
I won't show my face here anymore
I won't show my face here anymore
I won't show my face here anymore
The Chord shapes I use:
(note: I use my thumb to get the first fret of the low e for the chord)
: : : :
e|-0-| e|-3-| e|-0-| e|-0-|
|-1-| |-1-| |-1-| |-1-|
|-2-| |-0-| |-2-| |-0-|
|-3-| |-0-| |-2-| |-2-|
|-3-| |-2-| |-0-| |-3-|
|-1-| |-3-| |-x-| |-0-|
Everything in brackets i.e () or (*) are transitional riffs from to , if you feel confident you can
play these riffs instead of the chord however this is not necessary, if you don't want to play it more advanced
stick with the chord.
