Straight Down the Line
by British Sea Power
from the Krankenhaus? EP 2007

(not sure on some of the lyrics)

G				           D       F				            C
Straight down the line with love, straight down the line with hate
G		      D	F		     C
I never felt so good, I never felt so great
G		        D	    F			     C
It all looks so familiar, it's all very few willing to (sic)
G		         D	       F		      C
Cross the military ground I am lost but I'll be found
G		             D	           F		            C
sunshine, gunfire, enemy I won't be getting hurt today
G			  D	               F			C
Fifteen miles without a break just for one more month of grace

G		     Am	          D
I have said romance is dead
G		      Am		D
Created destruction in my head
         C	    D 		            Em			F
But I did not know it's a soldier soaked in blood
         C	              D       G
But I never felt so good
[ Tab from: https://www.guitartabs.cc/tabs/b/british_sea_power/straight_down_the_line_crd.html ]
G D F C
Straight down the line with love, straight down the line with hate
I never felt so good today, I never felt so great
He made me a meal out of the scraps then he talked to a photograph
He would rather take your pain than see you get hurt this way
'Cause you can't make it alone, you can't make it alone
You can never go, you can never know
F		      C	   F		     C
Don't go any further, don't go any further

solo   Am    C    D
G						             Am       D
I never knew that it could feel so good, I never knew that it could feel so good,  ah
G							     Am      D
I never knew that it could feel so good, I never knew that it could feel so good,  ah
	     C		   D             Em
                    C                D       G
Cause a feeling I know is a soldier soaked in blood, but you never felt so good

G  D  F  C
Straight down the line with love, straight down the line with hate
I never felt so good, I never felt so great
Straight down the line straight up the field straight down the line nothing is real
imploding come bursting, better yet the scent of death

Powerful lyrics set against a beautiful melody. Such is the strength of BSP.
