Orpheus Ukulele by Sara Bareilles

Chords with lyrics

Tuning: G C E A (G C E A)

Verse 1:
D
Come by the fire, lay down your head

My love, I see you're growing tired

So set the bad day by the bed
      A
And rest a while, your eyes can close
     Bm              G
You don't have to do a thing but listen to me sing
          D
I know you miss the world, the one you knew

The one where everything made sense
                         A
Because you didn't know the truth, that's how it works
                 Bm
'Til the bottom drops out and we learn
        G              G
We're all just hunters seeking solid ground
Chorus:
D                       F#m
Don't stop trying to find me here amidst the chaos
                   Bm
Though I know it's blinding there's a way out
G    A                   D
Say out loud, we will not give up on love now
                     F#m
No fear, don't you turn like Orpheus, just stay here
              Bm     E
Hold me in the dark and when the day appears
    Asus4   A         D
We'll say we did not give up on love today

Verse 2:
Dsus4     D  Dsus4 D       Dsus4
I'll show you good, restore your faith
      D        Dsus4     D       Dsus4
I'll try and somehow make a meaning of the poison in this place
       A  Asus4       A  Asus4
Convince you, love, don't breathe it in
     Bm                G
You were written in the stars that we are swimming in
       D  Dsus4   D  Dsus4
And it has no name, no guarantee
       D       Dsus4     D       Dsus4
It's just the promise of a day I know that some may never see
      A  Asus4  A      Asus4
But that's enough, if the bottom drops out
     Bm    G             G
I hope my love was someone else's solid ground


Chorus:
D                       F#m
Don't stop trying to find me here amidst the chaos
                   Bm
Though I know it's blinding there's a way out
G    A                   D
Say out loud, we will not give up on love now
                     F#m
No fear, don't you turn like Orpheus, just stay here
              Bm     E
Hold me in the dark and when the day appears
    Asus4   A         D   Dsus4 D Dsus4
We'll say we did not give up on love today
    G    A         D  Dsus4 D Dsus4 D Dsus4 D
We'll say we did not give up on love today
