Аккорды к песне ​The Lumineers — Cleopatra

      G             C           G 
I was Cleopatra, I was young and an actress 
       C            G               D 
When you knelt by my mattress, and asked for my hand 
         G                C          G 
But I was sad you asked it, as I laid in a black dress 
      C          G             D 
With my father in a casket, I had no plans, yeah 
 
   G                        C 
And I left the footprints, the mud stain on the carpet 
      C              G                D 
And it hardened like my heart did when you left town 
      G                      C            G 
But I must admit it, that I would marry you in an instant 
       C                 G                     D 
Damn your wife, I'd be your mistress just to have you around 
 
 
[CHORUS] 
 
        G       D     C           C           G          D 
But I was late for this, late for that, late for the love of my life 
       G      D          C          C         G       D 
And when I die alone, when I die alone, die I'll be on time, ah, yeah 
 
 
[VERSE] 
 
          G                C              G 
While the church discouraged, any lust that burned within me 
     C              G                D 
Yes my flesh, it was my currency, but I held true 
    G                  C      G 
So I drive a taxi, and the traffic distracts me  
       C              G                     D 
From the strangers in my backseat, they remind me of you 
 
[CHORUS] 
 
        G       D     C        G     C           G         D 
But I was late for this, late for that, late for the love of my life 
        G     D     C         G          C      G      D 
And when I die alone, when I die alone, when I die I'll be on time 
 
[BRIDGE] 
 
      Em                G        C     D    Em 
And the only gifts from my Lord were a birth and a divorce 
        G                    Em              D        G 
But I've read this script and the costume fits, so I'll play my part 
 
[VERSE] 
 
      G             C             G 
I was Cleopatra, I was taller than the rafters 
        C          G                   D 
But that's all in the past now, gone with the wind 
     G                C                G 
Now a nurse in white shoes leads me back to my guestroom 
       C       G 
It's a bed and a bathroom 
                 D 
And a place for the end 
 
[CHORUS] 
 
          G       D   C        G    C           G         D 
I won't be late for this, late for that, late for the love of my life 
       G       D        C      G      C      G         D G 
And when I die alone, when I die alone, die I'll be on time, ah
