The Good Samaritan


The Good Samaritan by The Pierces tebbed by: Kaija email: kaja.rose@gmail.com This song is in capo 4, but this song is sung by Allison, whose voice is suuuper low. (she is a contralto) So if you're a soprano, like me, it's good to up it to capo 6 or 7. It's one of my favourites off the album. It's so beautiful and haunting. Enjoy :D Capo 4 Intro: Am, Em, Dm, E Am Em He was moving towards me like a deadly hurricane Dm E Well the eye was on the sparrow but I was in the rain Am Em Rolled into town and blew his smoke into my eyes Dm E Well it was only for a moment but I was hypnotized Am Em Dm E Why can’t I know secrets that you’re keeping from me? Am Em Stop, don’t tell me now Dm E Cause there is only one day more and I don’t know how Am Em To bring to life the things that meant so much to me before Dm E There is danger in your words that I cannot ignore Am Em Dm E Why must I conceal the secrets I’ve been keeping from you? Am, Em, Dm, E part 2: e|-0-0------0-0--------------------------------------------------------------| B|-----3-1------3-1--3-3-1-0--3-3-1-0--1-1-0----1-1-0----0-0------0-0--------| G|-------------------------------------------2--------2------2-1------2-1----| D|---------------------------------------------------------------------------| A|---------------------------------------------------------------------------| E|---------------------------------------------------------------------------| Am Em Sorry thing it was that fell out of your hands Dm E Then you take me in your arms become the good samaritan Am Em Time flies by like planes above and worries me to death Dm E Cause I lose you more and more with every breath Am Em Dm E Why can’t I know secrets that you’re keeping from me?
