Chords with lyrics
A augmentedA friend of mine wrote this as a poem, why not add a chord progression to it and turn it into a song?
Intro:
FF C majorC G+G A minorAm
FF C majorC G+G A minorAm
Verse 1:
FF C majorC
Knowing what you have, you never think you’d lose it
G+G A minorAm
Going day by day, I was the one to choose it
FF C majorC
I keep myself busy with things to do
G+G A minorAm
'Cause every time I pause I still think of you
Verse 2:
FF C majorC
Our small pointless conversations mean more than you know
G+G A minorAm
And every fight and struggle flies out the window
FF C majorC
Missing you comes in waves, at night I’m drowning
G+G A minorAm
There's an ocean in my heart and my mind’s forever frowning
Chorus 1:
FF C majorC
Can you tell I haven’t slept from the time we last spoke?
G+G A minorAm
And that when you say those words I can’t help but choke
FF C majorC
Yet when I do sleep I dream you're back by my side
G+G A minorAm
Then it's ripped apart by the sun; it’s sure to rise
Verse 3:
FF C majorC
My crying is the worst; muffled and silent
G+G A minorAm
And the thoughts in my head rage fast and violent
FF C majorC
I’m reminded of what I did to you
G+G A minorAm
And the events that made us fall through
Verse 4:
FF C majorC
Now my name brings distaste in your mouth
G+G A minorAm
And your liking to me is falling south
FF C majorC
I don’t mind being hated, but I hate being misunderstood
G+G A minorAm
You listen to everyone else; I'm spoken of in falsehood
Chorus 2:
FF C majorC
No words could flee my mouth to make you understand
G+G A minorAm
That I still love you, baby, I still want to hold your hand
FF C majorC
I'm not perfect, as you know, and when he came along
G+G A minorAm
It pulled me out of a shadow, just thought you’d like to know
Verse 5:
FF C majorC
Thinking that he could save me from heartbreak
G+G A minorAm
I sent your world up in an earthquake, making your hands shake
FF C majorC
No compilation of words could undo the broken
G+G A minorAm
No rhyme nor rhythm could ever be spoken
Verse 6:
FF C majorC
To fix what I did and close what's been opened
G+G A minorAm
And give you back what I had selfishly stolen
FF C majorC
I don’t ask for forgiveness or ask for you back
G+G A minorAm
I don’t imply that I’m something that you lack
Chorus 3:
FF C majorC
I am here, asking that you see
G+G A minorAm
You still mean the flipping world to me
FF C majorC
Even if a bitch is all I am in your eyes
G+G A minorAm
My caring for you I cannot disguise
Outro:
FF C majorC
You may think of me as a horrible person
G+G A minorAm
But I hope and I pray that this won’t make it worsen
FF C majorC
I started this song with eyes full of tears
G+G A minorAm
But end it hoping you can forgive me one of these years
