Leap Year chords by Billie Marten

• Difficulty: Intermediate

Key: E

Intro:

E

Verse 1:
A
There's nothing below us anymore
E                          G#
A carpet of clouds, and the sky's the floor
A
I've seen faces love and lose it all
E                 G#
A gambling train, it's criminal

Verse 2:
A
Our love is like a rose
E
It blooms and then it goes
A
A pocketful of gold
E                B
An eyelash on the nose

Chorus:
           A
I could've loved you
        E             B
But the day's already gone
           A
I could've held you
        E             B
But the sun's already shone
           A
I could've kept you
                A
Would you stay longer than a leap year
D7                   E
If I fall asleep here?

E

Verse 3:
A
I carve the time away in my ivory hall
E                      G#
I sing my songs, and I climb the walls
A
Thе clock is ticking murder at me now
E              G#
A solitude, insuffеrable

Verse 4:
A
Our love is like an ache
E
It keeps you lying awake
A
Four times around the sun
E                B
I'd walk a mile to run

Chorus:
           A
I could've loved you
        E             B
But the day's already past
           A
I could've seen you shine
        E             B
But the moon just didn't last
           A
I could've kept you
                A
Would you stay longer than a leap year
D7                   E
If I fall asleep here?
