      Capercaillie - God's Alibi


CAPO: 4th Fret



[Intro]
Am    G Am   G  Am    G  Am  G

[Verse 1]
Am            Em
Spring in Macedonia
    Am                     Em
The last clean pocket on a blood-soaked coat
     F                C
In a state of claustrophobia
F                                   G
Waiting for the rain to wash it all out


[Chorus 1]
C                           F        C
Fear in their eyes, did the crucifix lie?

Did the words of the church run dry?
                            F
Fear in their eyes, did the crucifix lie?
        Em                    F
Did the words of the church run dry?


[Verse 2]
Am                     Em
Meeting on the road to Basra
Am                   Em
You, half-blind in a blood-soaked coat
F                C
Me, I'm a fallen angel
F                       G
Fallen from the burning tree of doubt


[Chorus 1]
C                           F        C
Fear in their eyes, did the crucifix lie?

Did the words of the church run dry?
                            F
Fear in their eyes, did the crucifix lie?
        Em                    F
Did the words of the church run dry?


[Chorus 2]
      C                           F
I'm a witness to the moon and the stars above
     C
I'm aware of the crimson sky
                               Dm7
I'm a witness to the crumbling walls as well
                 Em F
But I'm not your alibi


[Chorus 2]
      C                           F
I'm a witness to the moon and the stars above
     C
I'm aware of the crimson sky
                               F
I'm a witness to the crumbling walls as well
                 Em   Am
But I'm not your alibi__


[Verse 2]
    Am                 Em
The war is the last sensation
    Am                  Em
The final song with the longest note
       F              C
Like a silence, never broken
F                    G
War is the book that nobody wrote


[Chorus 1]
C
Fear in their eyes, did the crucifix lie?
                              F
Did the words of the church run dry?
C                           F
Fear in their eyes, did the crucifix lie?
        Em                    F
Did the words of the church run dry?


[Chorus 2]
      C                           F
I'm a witness to the moon and the stars above
     C
I'm aware of the crimson sky
                               F
I'm a witness to the crumbling walls as well
                 Em F
But I'm not your alibi


[Chorus 2]
      C                           F
I'm a witness to the moon and the stars above
     C
I'm aware of the crimson sky
                               F
I'm a witness to the crumbling walls as well
             Em   Am
I'm not your alibi__
