Plans For The Future chords by Said The Whale

Chords with lyrics

A minorAm

A minorAm
Daylight is fading like an awkward smile

C majorC
Sun hides behind the west coast


E MajorE
I thought, I thought I knew
     C majorC
I had everything figured out


C majorC
'Til night came and I lost my shadow

C majorC
Blended with moonlight and broken glass
C majorC
Ten hours of panic will follow


E MajorE
I watch the trees look black
  C majorC
My red shirt in is turning grey


C majorC
Strange things just won't stop appearing!


E MajorE
Give me day, give me light

These days, those days


C majorC
I was taught to bottle my emptiness
C majorC
Deal with my quarter-life angst by painting pictures


C majorC
Tip of my pencil describes what I might have drawn
C majorC
Had my left brain and right hand been in contact

E MajorE
Broken section is now, read on

A minorAm
Then all at once, the sky started raining
C majorC
Soaked to the bone, stopped!


A minorAm
People of nighttime, came out of hiding
C majorC
One of them turned my way


      G+G
She said: "I'd like to tell you
    A minorAm
Some things I wished I'd known
C majorC
When I was young like you


G+G
It won't take a second
     A minorAm
But it could save you years
C majorC
Years passed like seconds out here"


Use verse chords here:


I was enthralled with the way that
She spoke so softly
For a lady of her finesse and personal hygiene
She had cuts, bruises, scrapes, scratches
Hair tangled everywhere
She spoke in a way that demanded my attention


You're at the top of your game
You're in control of your life
Pearl of the oyster
The cream of the (?)
What I would give for that, I hope you never know


C majorC
So live your life!
             A minorAm
Don't sleep through the night!
Fmaj
Life's worth a living!
              G+G
You gotta start living it right!


       A minorAm
So live your life!
             C majorC
Don't sleep through the day!
Fmaj
Dreams are for living!
               G+G
You gotta stop letting them die
