Hammer by Marie Hines Tab
Introduction: D A D A E D A C#m D (2 beats each)
(Verse)
D A
You never think your lover's words could kill you
D F#m
And you can't for see the blow that is your last
D A
But you've brought me to my knees with a blow that I believe
C#m D
Has somehow paralyzed my need for fighting back
D A
I can't pretend that they don't know your secret
D F#m
And I can't pretend that I don't know it too
D A
I can hear the people talking, I can feel their pity eyes
C#m D
Dare I say the fault is really mine
C#m D
Dare I say the fault is mine
D A
I wish I could tell you
D F#m
I love you still
D A
I gave you the hammer
C#m D
But I didn't know that you would strike to kill
Interlude: D A D A E D A C#m D (2 beats each)
(Verse)
D A
You're quite as I stutter over questions
D F#m
Whose answers I don't really want to know
D
Did you whisper that you loved her,
A
Drop your kisses on her neck
D F#m
And with determination, down the wine
D A
There will always be another and another choice to make
C#m D
Another chance to justify your crime,
C#m D
Another chance to choose the crime
D A
I wish I could tell you
D F#m
I love you still
D A
I gave you the hammer
C#m D
But I didn't know that you would strike to kill
C#m E
But I didn't think that you could kill
Interlude: D A D A E D A C#m D D (2 beats each)
D A
I wish I could tell you
D F#m
I love you still
D A
I gave you the hammer
C#m D
But I didn't know that you would strike to kill
D A
I wish I could tell you
D F#m
I never will
D A
I gave you the hammer
C#m D
But I didn't know that you would strike to kill
C#m D
But I didn't think that you could kill
