Chords with lyrics

Track: The Cost
Artist: The Frames

Like this song a lot from a bunch of years ago, and there wasn't a listing for it,
so here's how I've been playing it!
Nice and easy, slow pace, and it sounds pretty good.

G minorGm E minorEm A minorAm
C majorC E minorEm


G minorGm   E minorEm    A minorAm
 Love has been the cause
   C majorC       E minorEm
 Of all this suffering
G minorGm     E minorEm    A minorAm
 And what has been our loss
C majorC       E minorEm
Has been its gain
G minorGm     E minorEm   A minorAm
 So lay your burdens down
   C majorC       E minorEm
And stop your crying


         D MajorD
Will we let it burn
    A minorAm     E minorEm
Burn us down, burn us


G minorGm     E minorEm    A minorAm
 And low have been the odds
   C majorC       E minorEm
Of our reuniting
G minorGm     E minorEm    A minorAm
 And where now can we turn
   C majorC       E minorEm
When we've got nothing


(SOLO)
G minorGm E minorEm A minorAm C majorC E minorEm (x3)


         D MajorD
Will we let it burn
    A minorAm     E minorEm
Burn us down, burn us
         D MajorD
And maybe it'll turn
    A minorAm     E minorEm
Us around
