Chords with lyrics
"Secrets of the Stars" - The Milk Carton Kids
Capo 2 (standard tuning)
(A minorAm - Am7Am7 Fade-in)
A minorAm E7sus4E7sus4 E7E7
The only time I ever heard the voice of God
FF C majorC E7sus4E7sus4 E7E7
Was in the silence of the night in the arms of the one I love
DmDm G+G C majorC Cmaj9/B A minorAm
Staring at the ceiling up above
G+G E7sus4E7sus4 E MajorE A minorAm
Like it contained the secrets of the stars
A minorAm E7sus4E7sus4 E7E7
Any time I ever woke up in a dream
FF C majorC E7sus4E7sus4 E7E7
I saw my shadow there staring back at me
DmDm G+G C majorC Cmaj9/B A minorAm
Moving through the walls and wondering
G+G E7sus4E7sus4 E MajorE A minorAm
As all the world rose up inside of me
FF E7sus4E7sus4 E7E7
And I long to hear the melody
A minorAm Gadd4 FF E minorEm DmDm
That one time played inside my mind
DmDm E7sus4E7sus4 E7E7
And to love another helplessly
A minorAm Gadd4 FF E minorEm FF E minorEm E7sus4E7sus4 E7E7
So breathing feels like putting out a fire
A minorAm E7sus4E7sus4 E7E7
Any time my life flashes in front of me
FF C majorC E7sus4E7sus4 E7E7
I see a child there as if on a screen
DmDm G+G C majorC Cmaj9/B A minorAm
Standing in the shadows flickering
G+G E7sus4E7sus4 E MajorE A minorAm
For a moment I know what it means
**Joey's chords during Kenneth's solo
C majorC - E minorEm - A minorAm
A minorAm E7sus4E7sus4 E7E7
All this time I lived inside a memory
FF C majorC E7sus4E7sus4 E7E7
Daylight creeping in through a crack in the weathered seams
DmDm G+G C majorC Cmaj9/B A minorAm
Severing the ties and trembling
G+G E7sus4E7sus4 E MajorE A minorAm
Losing all the voices in the wind
FF E7sus4E7sus4 E7E7
And I long to hear the melody
A minorAm Gadd4 FF E minorEm DmDm
That one time played inside my mind
DmDm E7sus4E7sus4 E7E7
And to love another helplessly
A minorAm Gadd4 FF E minorEm FF E minorEm E7sus4E7sus4 E7E7
So breathing feels like putting out a fire
