Chords with lyrics
"The Fold" by Ivan and Alyosha, off their album "All the Times We Had"
http://www.ivanandalyosha.com/
NOTE - Mess around with the chords a little bit. It doesn't have to be the run of the
mill chord structures, because often times I&A uses variations when they're playing live.
Also, I think the D-chord sounds good with an F#F# bass note. But again, do what you like.
Capo 3
Intro
C, G, Em, D MajorD
C majorC G+G
All the years that you have wasted
E minorEm D MajorD
Now you want 'em all back
C majorC G+G
Long ago you stopped counting
E minorEm D MajorD
Because you couldn't keep track
C majorC G+G
You were faced with a future
E minorEm D MajorD
That was bright as the sun
C majorC G+G
But the pressure, it was melting,
E minorEm D MajorD
You decided to run
Chorus
E minorEm D MajorD G+G
Don't you fold
E minorEm
When the mountain is high,
D MajorD
When the river is wide
E minorEm D MajorD G+G
Don't you fold
E minorEm
When you're out of your mind,
D MajorD
When you're walking the line
C majorC G+G
An oasis in the desert
E minorEm D MajorD
Where the waters run clear
C majorC G+G
And the only way to see it
E minorEm D MajorD
Is to believe that it's there
C majorC G+G
Well, we always fight our battles
E minorEm D MajorD
No matter where you came
C majorC G+G
So, be done with your excuses;
E minorEm D MajorD
You're the only one to blame
Chorus
E minorEm D MajorD G+G
Don't you fold
E minorEm
When the mountain is high,
D MajorD
When the river is wide
E minorEm D MajorD G+G
Don't you fold
E minorEm
When you're out of your mind,
D MajorD
When you're walking the line
Bridge
C majorC D MajorD E minorEm
And all this time,
D MajorD G+G
I was living a lie
C majorC D MajorD
I was lost and petrified,
But I know that things
C majorC D MajorD E minorEm
Could change in time
D MajorD G+G
All the years dreams can buy
C majorC D MajorD
Between the heart and the mind
Chorus
E minorEm D MajorD G+G
Don't you fold
E minorEm
When the mountain is high,
D MajorD
When the river runs dry
E minorEm D MajorD G+G
Don't you fold
E minorEm
When you're out of your mind,
D MajorD
When you're walking the line
E minorEm D MajorD G+G
Don't you fold
E minorEm
When the mountain is high,
D MajorD
When the river is wide
E minorEm D MajorD G+G
Don't you fold
E minorEm
When you're out of your mind,
D MajorD
When you're walking the line
E minorEm D MajorD G+G
Don't you fold
E minorEm D MajorD G+G
Don't you fold
