A While (live) chords by Gabrielle Aplin

Intro: C E Dm F (x2)

verse 1:
         C              E
When it rains, yeah it rains
       Dm                     F
We can be so unforgiving, it leaves us unforgiven
           C              E
We're the same, we never change
         Dm                            F                         Bb
It's the reason we're together, just waiting for the weather to pass



            F         C      Bb
I've been rolling my days away
                    F           C         Bb
Can't turn out the light that keeps me awake
            G                    F
I've been trying to sleep for a while
             Dm            Am
There'll be nothing left to talk about
     Bb              F
And no one left to hear.
       (F)
In a while,
            Dm            Am
We'll pour water on these ashes and
     Bb              F
The walls will disappear
        C  A
For a while
            Dm            C           G   Bb F
We've been caught in the cold light of day

verse 2:
           C               E
Lost our love, you put it down
     Dm                         F
Somewhere for safekeeping, so safe you don't remember
           C                E
But it's okay, we'll make some more
      Dm                                  F                                 Bb
It's you that i'll be needing, not these books that we've been reading too long



            F         C      Bb
I've been rolling my days away
                    F           C         Bb
Can't turn out the light that keeps me awake
            G                    F
I've been trying to sleep for a while
             Dm            Am
There'll be nothing left to talk about
     Bb              F
And no one left to hear.
       (F)
In a while,
            Dm            Am
We'll pour water on these ashes and
     Bb              F
The walls will disappear
        C  A
For a while
            Dm            C           G   Bb  F
We've been caught in the cold light of day

I've been trying to sleep, i've been trying to sleep
         F
For a while

And no one left to hear.
