Bling Confessions Of A King

The Killers


Tom: D

Intro : 

D  G     A  F#m  G
When I offer you survival
You say it’s hard enough to live
It’s not so bad, It’s not so bad
How do you know…
Bm  A  G  
…that you’re right?


Bm  G  E  Bm
I work on the roadside
In the land of the free ride
I can’t hold it any longer
The sun is beating down my neck


Bm  G  E  Bm
So I ran with the devil
Left a trail of excuses
Like a stone on the water
The elements decide my fate

         G   A 
Watch it go… (Bling)


D                F#m
When I offer you survival
G
You say it’s hard enough to live
A             F#m  
Don’t tell me that it’s over
      G
Stand up, poor and tired, but more than this

A               F#m
How do you know that you’re right
              G
If you’re not nervous anymore?
A           F#m              G 
It’s not so bad, it’s not so bad


Bm  G  E  Bm
I feel my vision slipping out of focus
But I’m pushing on for that horizon
I’m pushing on
Now I’ve got that blowin’ wind against my face


Bm  G  E  Bm
So you sling rocks at the riptide
Am I wrong or am I right?
I hit the bottom with a hook- quite strange
I get my glory in the desert rain

         G   A 
Watch it go.. (when I offer you survival) Bling


D  F#m  G
When I offer you survival
You say it’s hard enough to live
A  F#m  G
I’ll tell you when it’s over
Shut up- poor and tired, but more than this

A  F#m  G
How do you know that you’re right
If you’re not nervous anymore?
A  F#m  G
It’s not so bad, it’s not so bad


D
Higher and higher, we’re gonna take it
D
Down to the wire, we’re gonna make it
G          A Bm  F#m
Out of the fire
G          A
Higher and higher

D
Higher and higher, we’re gonna take it
D
Down to the wire, we’re gonna make it
G          A Bm  F#m
Out of the fire
G          A
Higher and higher

D 
Higher and higher, we’re gonna take it
Gmaj7
Down to the wire, we’re gonna make it
G   A    Bm F#m
Out whoa oh oh
G          A   D 
Higher and Higher


G        A       Bm 
It ain’t hard to hold
        F#m         G
When it shines like gold
         A      D  
You’ll remember me
