The Fold chords by Ivan And Alyosha

"The Fold" by Ivan and Alyosha, off their album "All the Times We Had"

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# bass note. But again, do what you like.

Capo 3

Intro

C, G, Em, D

C                            G
All the years that you have wasted
Em                    D
Now you want 'em all back
C                      G
Long ago you stopped counting
Em                         D
Because you couldn't keep track

C                      G
You were faced with a future
Em                      D
That was bright as the sun
C                         G
But the pressure, it was melting,
Em              D
You decided to run

Chorus
Em     D   G
Don't you fold
                     Em
When the mountain is high,
                  D
When the river is wide
Em     D   G
Don't you fold
                         Em
When you're out of your mind,
                         D
When you're walking the line

C                 G
An oasis in the desert
Em                     D
Where the waters run clear
C                    G
And the only way to see it
Em                        D
Is to believe that it's there
C                          G
Well, we always fight our battles
Em                   D
No matter where you came
C                        G
So, be done with your excuses;
Em                       D
You're the only one to blame

Chorus
Em     D   G
Don't you fold
                      Em
When the mountain is high,
                   D
When the river is wide
Em     D   G
Don't you fold
                         Em
When you're out of your mind,
                         D
When you're walking the line

Bridge
    C    D    Em
And all this time,
D               G
I was living a lie
       C             D
I was lost and petrified,

But I know that things
        C    D   Em
Could change in time
         D                G
All the years dreams can buy
             C              D
Between the heart and the mind

Chorus
Em     D   G
Don't you fold
                     Em
When the mountain is high,
                     D
When the river runs dry
Em     D   G
Don't you fold
                         Em
When you're out of your mind,
                         D
When you're walking the line
Em     D   G
Don't you fold
                     Em
When the mountain is high,
                    D
When the river is wide
Em      D    G
Don't you fold
                         Em
When you're out of your mind,
                         D
When you're walking the line

Em      D   G
Don't you fold
Em      D   G
Don't you fold
