Guitar chords with lyrics

  • Difficulty: Intermediate
Tuning: Standard (E A D G B E)

🎸 Intro:
G#m B     E
G#m B     E
G#m B     E
G#m B     E



🎸 Verse 1:
B
So we got straight to the heart
                                     E
And I was a coward and worse to my shame
🎸
Accuracy Rating: - Votes: -
I fell hard upon the weightless weeks
                   B
But wasted every day

‘Til you emerged in the park
                                    E
Like some patron of Washington Square

For the first time in a long time
                            B
Inside everything stood clear

So went out to find me a job
                                             E
But I didn't think I would hold this one down

It gives the same old sinking feeling
                             B
Of fucking hammers in my bowels

But you are good to me still
                                      E
And when my old man was near to the end

You loved his broken body

In thе same way that I did


🎸 Chorus:
G#m B            E
I wanna lay me down
                        G#m
And be lovеr of the year
B                    E
In this strange new town
                      G#m B
This strange hemisphere


🎸 Verse 2:
 B
God, it was state of the art
                                    E
You called each of my sorrows by name

And a tide of tender mercies
                           B
Shook my body from the grave

And in the festival years
                      E
Of our makeshift parade

In perpetual fall
                     B
And immeasurable rain

I wanna see this one out
                                    E
And I wanna join the impossible swing

And fall hard beside you
                                    B
Screaming at the bowels of everything

And in the Islington morn
                      E
You're the angel of 8th

And what's more, the goddamn greatest thing

That Laney ever made


🎸 Chorus:
G#m B            E
I wanna lay me down
                       G#m
And be lover of the year
B                          E
And in this strange new town
                      G#m
This strange hemisphere
B                 E
You persuade me now
                           G#m
To look closer in the mirror
B                     E
And I wanna lay me down
                                      G#m
For years and years and years and years


🎸 Instrumental:
B  E  B E  B E  B

🎸 Outro:
B
Ah, there's heaven in you now

Ah, there's heaven in you now
 E
Ah, there's heaven in you now

Ah, there's heaven in you now
 B
There is heaven in you now

Ah, there's heaven in you now
 E
Ah, there's heaven in you now

Ah, there's heaven in you now
 B
There is heaven in you now

Ah, there's heaven in you now
 E
Ah, there's heaven in you now

Ah, there's heaven in you now
 B
Ah, there's heaven in you now

There is heaven in you now

Now, now
