Seven Years chords by Natalie Merchant

Guitar chords with lyrics

Capo on 3rd fret


==VERSE==
D MajorD          A augmentedA       B minorBm                  G+G
How did I love you? There was no measuring
D MajorD               A augmentedA           B minorBm        G+G
Far above this dirty world, far above everything
G+G               A augmentedA                B minorBm
In your tower over it, you were clean

==VERSE==
D MajorD              A augmentedA       B minorBm              G+G
So warm and insightful were you in my eyes
D MajorD              A augmentedA       B minorBm              G+G
I was sure the rightful guardian of my life
G+G            A augmentedA              B minorBm
Damn you betrayer, how you lied!


==CHORUS==
        G+G
But for seven years
A augmentedA                        D MajorD                               A augmentedA
You were loved, I laid golden orchid crowns around your feet
        G+G
And for seven years
A augmentedA                                    D MajorD              A augmentedA
I bowed down to touch the ground so holy; your devotee
G+G                  Bb majorBb               B minorBm
You were, you were all that I could see


==VERSE==
D MajorD            A augmentedA        B minorBm                    G+G
I've got my sight now, I see everything you hid
D MajorD                    A augmentedA        B minorBm               G+G
So don't you try to right now all the wrong you did
G+G           A augmentedA                   B minorBm
I might forget you, but not forgive


==CHORUS==
        G+G
But for seven years
A augmentedA                        D MajorD                               A augmentedA
You were loved, I laid golden orchid crowns around your feet
        G+G
And for seven years
A augmentedA                                    D MajorD              A augmentedA
I bowed down to touch the ground so holy; your devotee
       G+G                     A augmentedA
And for seven years, you were so revered
         D MajorD                                  A augmentedA
I made offerings of anything and everything I had
G+G                  Bb majorBb               B minorBm
You were, you were all that I could see


==OUTRO==
G+G                  Bb majorBb               B minorBm
