Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds - Bright Horses: chords

G#                      A#                  Cm A#
The bright horses have broken free from the fields
G#                      A#                    Cm A#
They are horses of love, their manes full of fire
G#                         A#                      Cm  A#
They are parting the cities, those bright burning horses
G#                    A#                       Cm A#
And everyone is hiding, and no one makes a sound
   G#                    A#               Cm A#
And I'm by your side and I'm holding your hand
        G#                 A#          Cm            A#
Bright horses of wonder springing from your burning hand

And everyone has a heart and it's calling for something
And we're all so sick and tired of seeing things as they are
And horses are just horses and their manes aren't full of fire
The fields are just fields and there ain't no Lord
And everyone is hidden, and everyone is cruel
And there's no shortage of tyrants and no shortage of fools
And the little white shape dancing at the end of the hall
Is just a wish that time can't dissolve at all

Cm A# D# G#
Oh, oh, oh
Cm  A#  D#  G#     Cm   A#       D#       G#
Oh, oh, oh, well, this world is plain to see
                        Cm  A# D#  G#
It don't mean we can't believe in something, and anyway
Cm A#      D#     G#                     Cm A# D# G#
My baby's coming back now on the next train
                                               Cm     A#  D# G#
I can hear the whistle blowing, I can hear the mighty roar
                                       Cm   A#     D#  G#
I can hear the horses prancing in the pastures of the Lord
                             Cm  A#       D#      G#
Oh the train is coming, and I'm standing here to see
                    Cm A# D#    G#
And it's bringing my baby right back to me
                Cm  A#  D#  G#
Well there are some things that are hard to explain
Cm  A# D#      G#                    Cm A# D# G#
But my baby's coming home now, on the 5:30 train
