Know Your Quarry - Biffy Clyro - Only Revolutions
Standard Tuning (EADGBe)
Tabbed by Jack Cookson (Torn Asunder)
CAPO 4th FRET
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Check out my profile for an MP3 of me playing this, but please note in the
recording I'm playing it with a capo on the 3rd fret to make it easier for me
to sing it. Having a capo on the 4th fret would be the way that Simon Neil
plays it.

When I was young

I first encountered my crippled lungs

I felt them burn

And cursed them ever since

In a match right in front of you

And I slithered to the floor
Bm
Hope I score some more
Am Em D Em
I won't go where the sun doesn't shine

Go crazy in the evening if we sail upright

Love is a shadow in the brightness it dies
C Am
Because tonight, we raise the sun

And we shine it over everyone

If we want a gradual hush

Our lips should kiss each other so...

I just want to feel your body

Looking down from a different universe

Can we save every single one of them

We only have five hands

My father cradled us

We're bright blue and we're covered in blood

We staggered through the door

Trouble is taking score
