It's Only Divine Right
The New Pornographers
from The Electric Version (2003)
Lyrics from http://www.thenewpornographers.com/
[Note: there's some lead-stuff going on in the song during
the parts that go from A to C# that is not reflected here.
People with better ears that I have can figure it out. Send
all corrections to bworlow@yahoo.com. Enjoy.]
Intro: C# F# x4
C# F#
Both eyes drinking cool water,
A Ab
Not the first daughter so I can't see
C# F#
Why you're wrestling with words at last,
C# F#
A tradition you've long outclassed.
C# F#
Come true for the new martyrs,
A Ab
With your hair parted like the Red Sea.
C# F#
You're addressing the world from your bed,
C# A E
All alone in the crowd like you said.
F# C#
Come true, it's only divine right.
F# C#
Come true, it's only divine right.
C# A F# x2
C# F#
Here's Leda in her white glory,
A Ab
All her back-story has been wiped clean.
C# F#
Just another apocryphal mess,
C# F#
Never promised 'em anything less.
C# F#
So come true, these are safe waters
A Ab
For the first daughter, so I can't see
C# F#
Why you're pushing the pull that you've had,
C# A E
While the rest of the girls go bad.
F# C#
Come true, it's only divine right.
F# C#
Come true, it's only divine right.
C# A F# x2
A C# x2
C# F#
Slip back through the plot
B Ab
For the new shock, seeing us then,
F# Ab
When we were the real people,
F# Ab
We were the real people.
C# F#
Slip back through the plot
B Ab
For the new shock, seeing us then,
F# Ab
When we were the real people,
F# Ab
We were the real people.
C# F# x4
C# F#
Face down in the old money,
A Ab
Left the crowd wondering what your next move's
C# F#
Gonna be in the moments ahead,
C# A E
While the rest of the girls go bad.
F# C#
Come true, it's only divine right.
F# C#
Come true, it's only divine right.
C# A F# x2
A C# x2
C# F#
Slip back through the plot
B Ab
For the new shock, seeing us then,
F# Ab
When we were the real people,
F# Ab
We were the real people.
C# F#
Slip back through the plot
B Ab
For the new shock, seeing us then,
F# Ab
When we were the real people,
F# Ab
We were the real people.
A C# [repeat several times]
