Looking For Something - Paolo Nutini

Intro A minorAm D MajorD DmDm A minorAm x 2
    A minorAm D MajorD D A minorAm x 4

Verse 1
A minorAm
Now the dirt is washed away
    D MajorD
And all alibis are out
                    A minorAm
And the hands that used to heal me only curse me now.
             D MajorD
The echoes of a woman so kind
                     A minorAm
Rain like waterfalls and ice-cream on my worried mind.
               D MajorD
I lay there in the puddle of myself
                    A minorAm
Fishing for a brand new wish from that bucket down the well.
               D MajorD
And in her colours I find my faith,
                   A minorAm
Cause I remember every word that lady used to say.

Chorus
     E MajorE           DmDm
She said hearts can't break themselves
      A minorAm
Looking for something, leaving with nothing
  E MajorE         DmDm
But souls can save themselves
       A minorAm    G+G     A minorAm  D MajorD
Learning to fly, sweet mother of mine!
D MajorD                 A minorAm
Be a long way home without you
It's such a long way home without you.
D MajorD   D MajorD   A minorAm
Yeah, yeah.

Verse 2
A minorAm
Miss my mother, like no other,
    D MajorD
Made me human, made me brother
                        A minorAm
Hands would swell and they would blister for my sake and my sisters
                 D MajorD
The guardian of my karma, keep my feet on terra firma
                    A minorAm
And then release me like a scion to the sky!

Chorus
       E MajorE           DmDm
She said that hearts can't break themselves
        A minorAm
Looking for something, leaving with nothing
  E MajorE         DmDm
But souls can save themselves
      A minorAm     G+G     A minorAm D MajorD D A minorAm
Learning to fly, sweet mother of mine!
A minorAm         D MajorD     D MajorD A minorAm
This heart can tell sometime

Verse 3
A minorAm
Sister, you have some hungry eyes
D MajorD
Can bite back you're hypnotized
Smiling faces in disguise
A minorAm
Can bite back you're hypnotized.
Keep going against the grain
D MajorD
And soon that's all, soon that's all you'll know
        A minorAm
And soon that's all you'll know
And let's get this straight
                  D MajorD
Sometimes you'll rise, and there's times you'll fall
After all, you're just blood and bones
       A minorAm
And you don't owe no one nothing
No, you don't owe no one
       D MajorD
So don't live like one price is right,
                          A minorAm
Cause there's some things in your life that you can fight!

Chorus
       E MajorE           DmDm
She said that hearts can't break themselves
      A minorAm
Looking for something, wind up with nothing
  E MajorE         DmDm
But souls can save themselves
      A minorAm     G+G     A minorAm D MajorD
Learning to fly, sweet mother of mine!
D MajorD    A minorAm
Of mine.

A minorAm D MajorD D A minorAm

Learning to fly, learning to fly

She said that souls can save themselves

No momma, how I love you
      A minorAm     G+G     A minorAm D MajorD D MajorD
Learning to fly, sweet mother of mine!

We're a long way home without you
