 If you're keeping  score then you're bound to win,
 A birds  eye view of a  burning bridge,
 You've gone  through ghost towns set on pause,
 Hoping  the risk was worth  a cause,
Oh,  sound off the false alarm,
Oh,  Oh
 But I'll make  my own colleague  from wood  and from ivory,
 And reap  the rewards  of proximity,
 I'll assemble  my equal  from what I  lack and require,
 And gather  what's left  unaccompanied,
It  smells like disaster,
It  looks like a trap,
So  go by the wayside,
And  never look back,
 If you  could spare me forty winks,
 While you  cry wolf and I  count sheep,
 What good  old ghosts in Kevlar vests,
 With backbones  like a  jellyfish,
Oh,  stomp on your land again,
Oh,  Oh
 But I'll make  my own colleague  from wood  and from ivory,
 And reap  the rewards  of proximity,
 I'll assemble  my equal  from what I  lack and require,
 And gather  what's left  unaccompanied,
It  smells like disaster,
It  looks like a trap,
So  go by the wayside,
And  never look back,
 If you're keeping  score then you're bound to win,
 A ring  side seat at the  main event,
Oh,  stomp on your land again,
Oh,  Oh
It  smells like disaster,
It  looks like a trap,
So  go by the wayside,
And  never look back.
It  smells like disaster,
Thank  God I can smell,
So  go by the wayside,
And  never look back.
 Enjoy!

Readable chord sheet for A Wolf Descends Upon the Spanish Sahara by Fair To Midland

If you're [Dm]keeping score then you're bound to win,
A [Bb]birds eye view of a[Bbsus2] burning bridge,
You've [Dm]gone through ghost towns set on pause,
Ho[Bb]ping the risk was [Bbsus2]worth a cause,

[Dm]Oh, sound off the false alarm,
[Bb]Oh, O[A]h

But I'll m[Dm]ake my own [Em]colleague from [Bb]wood and from [Gm]ivory,
And [F]reap the rew[C]ards of prox[Dm]imity,
I'll as[Dm]semble my [Em]equal from what I[Bb] lack and re[Gm]quire,
And [F]gather what's [C]left una[Dm]ccompanied,

[Gm]It smells like disas[Dm]ter,
[F]It looks like a [Dm]trap,
[Gm]So go by the w[Dm]ayside,
[Eb]And never look ba[A]ck,

If [Dm]you could spare me forty winks,
While [Bb]you cry wolf and [Bbsus2]I count sheep,
What [Dm]good old ghosts in Kevlar vests,
With [Bb]backbones like a[Bbsus2] jellyfish,

[Dm]Oh, stomp on your land again,
[Bb]Oh, O[A]h

But I'll m[Dm]ake my own [Em]colleague from [Bb]wood and from [Gm]ivory,
And [F]reap the rew[C]ards of prox[Dm]imity,
I'll as[Dm]semble my [Em]equal from what I[Bb] lack and re[Gm]quire,
And [F]gather what's [C]left unac[Dm]companied,

[Gm]It smells like dis[Dm]aster,
[F]It looks like a t[Dm]rap,
[Gm]So go by the [Dm]wayside,
[Eb]And never look ba[A]ck,

If you're [Dm]keeping score then you're bound to win,
A [Bb]ring side seat at [Bbsus2]the main event,

[Dm]Oh, stomp on your land again,
[Bb]Oh, O[A]h

[Gm]It smells like dis[Dm]aster,
[F]It looks like a [Dm]trap,
[Gm]So go by the [Dm]wayside,
[F]And never look [Dm]back.

[Gm]It smells like dis[Dm]aster,
[F]Thank God I can [Dm]smell,
[Gm]So go by the [Dm]wayside,
[Eb]And never look [A]back.    [Dm]

Enjoy!
