Foals - Birch Tree (Acoustic Version)

[Intro]
F#m Bm
(4x)

F#m Bm
The city I was born in
F#m Bm
I left a long time ago
F#m Bm
We lost touch
F#m Bm
Grew apart my friend
F#m Bm
My heart’s an old pole dancer
F#m Bm
Troubled romancer, you know
F#m Bm
It’s a subway chancer
F#m Bm
A question with no answer

F#m Bm
(2x)

F#m Bm
Come meet me by the river
F#m Bm
See how time it flows
F#m Bm
I’ll meet you by the river
F#m Bm
See how time it flows

F#m Bm
And when we age
F#m Bm
Shed our skin and grow
F#m Bm
We shed our layers
F#m Bm
Spread our wings and go
F#m Bm
My heart’s an old black panther
F#m Bm
Corrupted financer, you know
F#m Bm
It’s a troubled romancer
D E F#m
A question with no answer

F#m Bm
Come meet me by the river
F#m Bm
See how time it flows
F#m Bm
I’ll meet you by the river
F#m Bm
See how time it flows

I’ll meet you by the river

See how time it flows
