Light Year chords by Gregory Alan Isakov

Intro: G  C  G  C  G  C  G  C

Verso 1:

G          Em
I woke you up
D               C
With poetry and stones
G                  Em
The ragged and the bones
D                 C
Strewn around the room

Verso 2:

G        Em
I recall
D         C
Another hazy may
Em                   G
Take a round in the ring
     D               C
Gone hungry for the win

(G  C  G  C)
(G  C  G  C)

Refrão 1:

C                                    G
Here’s the part I just lose everything
C                                       Em   G   Em   C
And I cracked a spark just to hear you sing
Em   G   C
Sing

(G  C  G  C)
(G  C  G  C)

Verso 3:

G         Em
I took it out
D                  C
The papers and the trash
G              Em
Old among the cans
D                     C
This golden love gone bad

Verso 4:

G         Em
Shined it up
D             C
Aiming at the Sun
       Em              G
Just a light year from us
      D                  C
Hop a cab ride and we’re off

(G  C  G  C)
(G  C  G  C)

Refrão 2:

C                                G
And all the ravens came along to play
C                                   Em   G   Em   C
The simple notes you sang just went astray
Em   G   C
Astray

Ponte:

Am              Am               D7
Everything was up, it’s coming down
Am              Am               D7
Everything was up, it’s coming down
Cmaj7              Em           Cmaj7
Coming down,   coming,   coming down,   coming

(G  C  G  C)

G           C
Everything we ever wanted
G   C
