PALE SEAS - Bodies,
Chords, standard tuning, no capo:
{Intro:} x3
Em D G C
Em C D D
{Verses:}
Em D G C
Love's chewed a hole in me but it couldn't take my mind
Em C D D
The second time I'm blind and my heart's not there
Em D G C
And time was the second healer running down my spine
Em C D D
I see it all the time, oh, your hearts not there
{Chorus:}
C G C G
But your body's clinging on to what you have
C G Em D
When your race is over, I will be gone
C G C G
I can feel us drowning in the southern air
C G Em D
And my heart is screaming "No, No, No, No!"
C C
It's going, gone
{Verses:}
Em D G C
And life has set in motion what you wanted most
Em C D D
I'm running to the coast and I'm staying there
Em D G C
But time, and all it's ocean, I can't get there soon
Em C D D
All the things she said were true, I'm not going there
{Break:}
C Em G (D)
If she won't sing for me will she sing for the devil?
C Em D D
Then all my love came running back
{Chorus:}
C G C G
I can feel us drowning in the southern air
C G Em D
And my heart is screaming "No, No, No, No!"
C G C G
But your body's clinging on to what you have
C G Em D
When your race is over, I will be gone
C G C G
I can feel us drowning in the southern air
C G Em D
And my heart is screaming "No, No, No, No!"
C C
It's going, gone
Em

The accurate chords for the verse might be different (G instead of the second Em) if
you want to play it as they do. I would suggest to play the Em as: Em: 022033
and you may also want to play a D4: xx0233 when the D is repeated.
Capo: Don't use a capo if you want to play like the original song.
But I prefer having a capo on the 5th fret (for example), it's easier for me to sing.
