Cage The Elephant - Back Against The Wall Chords

[intro] x4
G#  F#  F#  C#  B

[verse 1]
G#                       F#
   Tonight I'll have a look
        F#        C#        B
And try to find my face again
G#                       F#
   Buried beneath this house
    F#                  C#    B
My spirit screams and dies again
G#                      F#
   Out back a monster wears a
F#                 C#         B
cloak of Persian leather
G#                F#
   Behind the TV screen
      F#           C#
I've fallen to my knees

[pre-chorus]
              G#
I said you've got me where you want me
   B             C#
Again and I can't turn away
    G#                            F#             C#
I'm hanging by a thread and I'm feeling like a fool
     G#                        B             C#
I'm stuck here in between the shadows of my yesterday
  G#
I want to get away
  F#            C#
I need to get away

[verse 2]
G#
   Blanket of silence
F#        F#            C#           B
makes me want to sink my teeth in deep
G#                  F#
   Burn all the evidence
  F#          C#     B
A fabricated disbelief
G#                         F#      F#         C#    B
   Pull back the curtains take a look into your eyes
G#                      F#      F#            C#
   My tongue has now become a platform for your lies I said

[pre-chorus]
       G#
You've got me where you want me
   B             C#
Again and I can't turn away
      G#                         F#               C#
I'm hanging by a thread and I'm feeling like a fool
     G#                         B           C#
I'm stuck here in between the shadows of my yesterday
    G#
I want to get away
  F#            C#
I need to get away

[chorus]
G#       F#
Now you know
B               C#                G#
Yeah, you got my back against the wall
   F#    B               C#             G#
Oh God, I ain't got no other place to hide
        F#            B
chained down, like a sitting duck
     C#                G#
Just waiting for the fall
    F#     B              C#
You know, yeah you got my back against the wall

[instrumental] x2
G#  F#  F#  C#  B

[verse 3]
G#
   Deep in the jungle
F#      F#            C#         B
Camouflaged by all the fallen leaves
G#                      F#
   A hand holds up the sky
      F#          C#         B
While shamefully I make my plea
G#
   The alter's callin'
F#      F#          C#       B
But my legs won't seem to stand
G#
   Guess I'm a coward
F#         F#              C#
Scared to face the man I am I said

[pre-chorus]
       G#
You've got me where you want me
  B              C#
Again and I can't turn away
     G#                           F#              C#
I'm hanging by a thread and I'm feeling like a fool
     G#                             B           C#
I'm stuck here right between the shadows of my yesterday
  G#
I want to get away
  F#             C#
I need to get away

[chorus]
G#       F#
Now you know
B               C#                G#

   F#    B               C#             G#
Oh God, I ain't got no other place to hide
        F#            B
chained down, like a sitting duck
     C#                G#
Just waiting for the fall
    F#     B              C#
You know, yeah you got my back against the wall
