Killing Moon, hmmm looks easy!
Em
Under blue moon I saw you
C
So soon you'll take me
Em
Up in your arms to late to beg you
C
Or cancel it though I know it must be
Em
The killing time
C
Unwillingly mine
CHORUS:
G Cm G
Fate, up against your will
Cm G
Through the thick and thin
Cm G
He will wait until
Cm G Cm
You give yourself to him
Em/// Em/// C/// C///
Em
In starlit nights I saw you
C
So cruelly you kissed me
Em
Your lips a magic world
C
The sky all hung with jewels
Em
The killing moon
C
Will come too soon
REPEAT CHORUS & SOLO:
*CHOKES*
I don't wanna be ignored, oh God,
When I'm a gun in a fistfight
You're chewing with an open mouth, raw meat,
your blood drool attracts the flies.
I give a little to you, I give a little to him, I give a little to her,
I give a little to you, I give a little to him, I give a little to her.
I don't wanna be left out or get fucked,
But there's a talent in your lies.
If you're chewing with an open mouth, raw meat;
Your blood drool attracts the flies.
I give a little to you, I give a little to him, I give a little to her,
I give a little to you, I give a little to him, I give a little to her,
A little bit for myself, don't put a price on your health,
I give a little to her,
I give a little to you, I give a little to him, I give a little to her.
Don't....wait for the sun,
Your....your story's been spun,
These boys....they just wanna have fun,
But your....now your damage is done, is done.
I give a little to you, I give a little to him, I give a little to her,
I give a little to you, I give a little to him, I give a little to her,
A little bit for myself, don't put a price on your health,
I give a little to her,
I give a little to you, I give a little to him, I give a little to her.
I give a little to her!
I give a little to her!
Ohhhhhhhhhhhh, I give a little to her!
Ohhhhhhhhhhhh, I give a little to her!
Love this version!
~The meaning behind the song and original video~
“Ultimately the song paints a truthful picture of the lies which affect our current state of existence in a (so called) free world. From the moment we’re born we are controlled, manipulated, and led astray from what really matters in life – freedom.
We are orchestrated from high above; even our leaders are merely puppets/clowns with their strings being pulled by powerful groups out of sight. Conspiracy theories, Illuminati, The New World Order; the free world is no longer free, our decisions no longer our own.
An Orwellian future which has come to be realised within our own lifetime – A case of the corrupt blind leading the free minds.”

Acoustic ... luv it!
Awesome! The Editors rule! I love his voice.
It's amazing how great he is, even life!
Brings back some awesome memories of Rock Werchter :P
lol StuBru :P
I was humming it the other day and I was like why not make it more Vr like??
So here it goes..
You're chewing with an open mouth, raw meat..
Your blood drool attracts Vampires... xD
Catchy, huh? xD
keep the lights on
Hold your fingers up to the sun
Trace the bones, feel the blood run
Eyes shot red, don't burn the day
Say your name, tell yourself that everything is okay
The night's too long
So, when we sleep, I keep the lights on
Until the morning comes
When we sleep, I keep the lights on
Clear your ground, hold your throat
Un-speak all the words you ever spoke
Leave and lead yourself astray
Say your name, tell yourself that everything is okay
The night's too long
So, when we sleep, I keep the lights on
Until the morning comes
When we sleep, I keep the lights on
If I get up I'll hold your hand
Anyone else I can, I can
If I go under understand
Anyone else, you can, you can
If I get up I'll hold your hand
Anyone else I can, I can
And if I go under understand
And anyone else, you can, you can
The night's too long
So, when we sleep, I keep the lights on
Until the morning comes
When we sleep, I keep the lights on
If I get up I'll hold your hand
Anyone else I can, I can
And if I go under understand
And anyone else, you can, you can
The night's too long
So, when we sleep, I keep the lights on
Until the morning comes
When we sleep, I keep the lights on
The night's too long
So, when we sleep, I keep the lights on
Until the morning comes
When we sleep, I keep the lights on
Two things I can thank AntiChrist for although it's so dam frustrating to attempt, it's giving me loads of pleasure.
1, I had not picked my guitar up in a week
2, I am now learning ~Sympathy for the Devil~ It's only an E, D, A , then back to E cord
CHORDS: E D A E E D A E
E D A E
Please allow me to introduce myself, I'm a man of wealth and taste
E D A E
I've been around for long, long years I've stolen many a man's soul and faith
E D A E
I was around when Jesus Christ had His moments of doubt and pain
E D A E
I made damn sure that Pilate washed his hands and sealed his fate
B B E D
Pleased to meet you, hope you guess my name, but what's puzzling you, is
A E
the nature of my game#
I just need to learn the words and strum pattern a little better.
Thanks AntiChrist, some good always comes from Evil ; P
And as the journals had been so quiet about you I thought I would breath a little life into your wretched bones lol.

hmmm...pleasure and pain principle maybe? mmm?
LOL probably shouldn't confuse the poor guy with kindnesses like that Theban I have a funny feeling he's used to curses :P
Kindness is something that should never be limited ^^
yeah but...he's the o.O Antichrist
hahaha just kidding. Love the song! Play it again!
Lol I'll attempt to not sound like a howling dog when I sing it.
Sympathy for the Devil is a great one but not your camp fire sing-a-long!!
Funny that you should say that, we are going to be playing this at my mates wedding lol
I think that I could get away with it as now we attempt to play pretty much anything that we can and this is a great song!
I play with another 2 blokes and one of them is the bloke getting married.
I am not as up to speed as the other 2 yet, it's getting there ^^
Please allow me to introduce myself
I'm a man of wealth and taste
I've been around for a long, long years
Stole many a man's soul and faith
And I was 'round when Jesus Christ
Had his moment of doubt and pain
Made damn sure that Pilate
Washed his hands and sealed his fate
Pleased to meet you
Hope you guess my name
But what's puzzling you
Is the nature of my game
I stuck around St. Petersburg
When I saw it was a time for a change
Killed the czar and his ministers
Anastasia screamed in vain
I rode a tank
Held a general's rank
When the blitzkrieg raged
And the bodies stank
Pleased to meet you
Hope you guess my name, oh yeah
Ah, what's puzzling you
Is the nature of my game, oh yeah
I watched with glee
While your kings and queens
Fought for ten decades
For the gods they made
I shouted out,
"Who killed the Kennedys?"
When after all
It was you and me
Let me please introduce myself
I'm a man of wealth and taste
And I laid traps for troubadours
Who get killed before they reached Bombay
Pleased to meet you
Hope you guessed my name, oh yeah
But what's puzzling you
Is the nature of my game, oh yeah, get down, baby
Pleased to meet you
Hope you guessed my name, oh yeah
But what's confusing you
Is just the nature of my game
Just as every cop is a criminal
And all the sinners saints
As heads is tails
Just call me Lucifer
'Cause I'm in need of some restraint
So if you meet me
Have some courtesy
Have some sympathy, and some taste
Use all your well-learned politesse
Or I'll lay your soul to waste

Now this is one cool song! Heard it last night and saw the words for it today*chuckles*
Yes one of the coolest for sure this one i like :)
my all-time fav song!
I wonder why the Rolling Stones don't write songs this well anymore.
Oh, don't shoot me, but I really like GNR's rendition of it. Man, Axle can wail sometimes. Don't get me wrong, the Stones are the Stones and they rocked it out. I just *shrugs* like a man that gets nitty gritty and wails and basically sounds like the devil when he's singing about the devil. lol
I saw the lyrics the other day too. :)
I am listening to it now to see what it sounds like....
Both good versions in there own way.
