[00:00.00]Napoleon Sheds His Skin (Acoustic) - Tom Cochrane
[00:09.25]Written by：Tom Cochrane
[00:18.51]The streets are covered in chalk
[00:20.00]
[00:22.34]The shops are boarded up
[00:24.28]
[00:26.58]The bodies are carried back down from the square
[00:31.20]
[00:35.86]He begins to wonder
[00:37.95]
[00:39.25]If it always was this hot
[00:42.14]
[00:44.00]Or is it just the clothes
[00:47.14]That he now wears
[00:48.98]
[00:52.78]Napoleon sheds his skin
[00:55.83]In the summer when the sun is high
[00:58.16]
[01:01.16]He never knows when to quit
[01:03.77]When to stop
[01:04.68]Or when to say die
[01:06.57]
[01:13.22]Napoleon
[01:17.33]
[01:22.85]Pick the bones get a tan
[01:25.87]
[01:26.85]Or wander underground
[01:28.71]
[01:30.56]She would not have left him anyway
[01:34.40]
[01:39.41]Wait by the sea wait in the sun
[01:42.33]
[01:43.10]As if the time stood still
[01:45.54]
[01:47.17]Did he get involved
[01:49.07]In whichever side that paid
[01:52.15]
[01:55.48]Napoleon sheds his skin
[01:58.54]In the summer when the sun is high
[02:01.07]
[02:03.79]He never knows when to quit
[02:06.21]When to stop
[02:07.35]Or when to say die
[02:09.77]
[02:15.60]Napoleon
[02:18.66]
[02:55.47]And time stands still behind the distant gates
[03:01.09]
[03:04.79]Time moves on outside in the sun
[03:09.51]
[03:12.74]Then he wonders which side he's really on
[03:17.45]
[03:20.80]Then he doesn't care
[03:22.90]It's so gray in there
[03:24.62]
[03:25.42]He just wants to get back to her
[03:29.05]Napoleon sheds his skin
[03:32.19]In the summer when the sun is high
[03:35.07]
[03:37.54]He never knew when to quit
[03:40.03]When to stop
[03:41.04]Or when to say die
[03:42.59]
[03:45.22]She waits for him by the wharf
[03:47.83]By the sea where they used to go
[03:50.57]
[03:53.05]She sings a song that they'd sing
[03:55.80]Then waits for the echo
[03:57.94]
[04:05.02]Napoleon
[04:05.12]
[04:13.51]Napoleon
[04:17.28]Sheds his skin
[04:18.50]
[04:21.70]Napoleon
[04:25.52]Sheds his skin
[04:26.75]
[04:29.81]Napoleon
[04:32.49]
[04:33.45]Sheds his skin
[04:34.56]
[04:37.71]I've got to get out of here
[04:39.08]
[04:41.32]Can she save me
[04:42.61]
[04:45.05]I've got to get out of here
[04:46.63]
[04:49.14]Can she save me
[04:50.53]
[04:53.23]I've got to get out of here
[04:54.87]
[04:57.30]Can you hear me
