History Of Man Chords by Maisie Peters

[Intro]
F  
 
 
[Verse 1]
                F
Tale as old as honey
               Dm
A moment everybody knows
                    
Yeah, I'm sure there was 
  C
heartbreak
                     C
Inside the walls of Jericho
              F
I couldn't believe it
                         Dm
How you could just stop wanting me
                      C
You burnt down Easter Island
                 Gm    
As if it wasn't sacred, 
                F/A
as if it wasn't sacred to me
 
 
[Chorus]
Bb
 I've seen it in the poems, 

 in the sands
C
 I've pleaded with the powers 

 and their plans
F                              C
 I tried to re-write it but I can't
                       F/A
It's the history, the history of man
Bb
 She stays up, he's sleeping 

 like a lamb
C
 She begs him, hе says 

 he doesn't understand
F
 Shе loves him more than 

 anyone ever has
C                                Gm
 In the history, the history of man
                     F
It's the history of man (Yeah)
 
 
[Verse 2]
                 F
You didn't even falter
                 Dm
Didn't look back once, did you?
                    C
So Samson blamed Delilah
                     C
But given half the chance I, 

I would have made him weaker too
 
 
[Pre-Chorus]
 Gm               Bb
Sirens sound and trumpets blaring
 Gm
You walked out, oh
 C
Without sweating
 
 
[Chorus]
Bb
 I've seen it in the poems, 

in the sands
C
 I've pleaded with the powers 

 and their plans
F                              C
 I tried to re-write it but I can't
                       F/A
It's the history, 
     F/A
the history of man (History)
Bb
 She stays up, he's sleeping 

 like a lamb
C
 She begs him, hе says 

he doesn't understand
F
 Shе loves him more than 

 anyone ever has
C
 In the history, 

 the history of man (History)
 
 
[Bridge]
     Gm
He stole our youth 

and promised heaven
     Bb
The men start wars yet 

Troy hates Helen
 Gm
Women's hearts are lethal weapons
 Bb
Did you hold mine 

and feel threatened?
 Gm
Hear my lyrics, taste my venom
 C
You are still my great obsession
 
 
[Chorus]
Bb
 I've seen it in the poems, 

 in the sands
C
 I've pleaded with the powers 

 and their plans
F                              C
 I tried to re-write it but I can't
                 
It's the history, 
     F/A
the history of man (History)
Bb
 I stay up, you're sleeping 

 like a lamb
C
 I beg you and you don't understand
F
 I hold on, I try to hold your hand
C
 I save you a seat and then 

 you say you wanna stand
Dm
 So you'll lose me, the best 

 you'll ever have
C
 It's the history, the history of man
