Lights won the 2009 Juno for best new artist!
Easy chords, experiment with the strumming for what sounds best.
I chorded it from a YouTube cover by TheNinjaNew (he uses capo on 4),
and fixed up some chords to sound like the original.
I had to add a few sections like the intro; hopefully it works.
This is probably my favorite song of hers, a real feel-good tune :D
Hope you enjoy!
TUNING: Standard
**************************************************
Intro: G
G
My mouth is frozen so I can't even speak
G
What a disappointment, I had it perfectly
G
What I was going to bring up suddenly
G
Stood like a stone as you stood quietly
Am
You're making it hard for me
G
All I can do is freeze
Dm
What I mean is, all i need is,
C
Just a little emotion
Dm
Cause all I see is you not feeling
Dm
And you're giving me nothing nice
G
I tried to do you right, why'd you have to go and turn to
i----------------------ce i----------------------ce
G
G
I don't think you're knowing how hard this is for me
G
I'm not the type to say sorry constantly
G
So I swallowed my pride and I got on my knees
G
But still you just stood there as you stared at me
Am
Your ego is getting old
G
How did you get so cold
Dm
What I mean is, all i need is,
C
Just a little emotion
Dm
Cause all I see is you not feeling
Dm
And you're giving me nothing nice
G
I tried to do you right, why'd you have to go and turn to
i----------------------ce i----------------------ce
G
Dm
I'm looking at you looking at me, what can I do but say sorry
C
It's a little late but you know I just want you to be happy.
C
What I got to say to make you let me get away with it this time.
Dm
I know you're upset and that you're happy just to sit and hate me,
C
But i'll make a bet that you'll be better to forget about me,
C
Even better yet I'll let a little light melt the ice, ice baby!
