Orpheus Ukulele chords by Sara Bareilles

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
