Chords with lyrics

Intro:
DmDm Dm DmDm C majorC x2

Verse 1:

     DmDm
All the pictures on the wall

   C majorC
The sand lying on the floor

       DmDm
The bed upstairs, still unmade

   DmDm
The dust float in the light

   C majorC
The people just left

   B minorBm
All laughter and mess

  A minorAm
Forgetting this and that

      G minorGm   FF C majorC
And rushing back

Verse 2:

   DmDm
The front door open

   DmDm             DmDm
The music still playing in one room

       DmDm
Down the hall

   C majorC         DmDm
And towels on the floor

        DmDm
And then it's quiet

     DmDm
Just the bees and birds

   C majorC
The summer haze

    Bb majorBb       A minorAm
Of the trees, and the air

     G minorGm FF     C majorC
Feeds it all, feeds it all

Chorus:

      DmDm
We can all feel it

     C majorC         Bb majorBb
Like a light hand on your back

     A minorAm
Welcoming you

      DmDm
We can all feel it

     C majorC         Bb majorBb
Like a light hand on your back

     A minorAm
Welcoming you

  G minorGm   FF    C majorC
The day before we went to war

   C majorC
The day before we went to war

C majorC      DmDm
We can all feel it

Verse 3:

     DmDm
All the parasols and kids at play

   C majorC
The sea so still and calm

DmDm
Blue as the cloudless sky

C majorC
Just the gentle hum

    DmDm
Of the summer's goings on

DmDm
Broken by the sudden rush

     DmDm
Of two planes

    C majorC
Flying low and fast

     Bb majorBb       A minorAm
Into the sun, into the sun

Chorus:

      DmDm
We can all feel it

     C majorC         Bb majorBb
Like a light hand on your back

     A minorAm
Welcoming you

      DmDm
We can all feel it

     C majorC         Bb majorBb
Like a light hand on your back

     A minorAm
Welcoming you
