Sound of Water/Change Your Mind - Sarah Slean
The Baroness (2008)
Transcribed by Kristilyn
C minorCm
F minorFm
Just to hear the sound of water
Just to put the fire on ice
BbmBbm
I'm lying down in the shower
C minorCm
Oh mercy, loosen the vice
F minorFm
Sometimes the sword is so heavy
and the pain has a ravenous mouth
BbmBbm
In the pits of my own making
C minorCm
Sometimes I don't think I'll ever get out
C minorCm
F minorFm
All the world stroking their comas
and the madmen making the news
BbmBbm
Bent over like a beggar
C minorCm
I was saying, "It's no use!"
F minorFm
This ain't the world for intelligent women
Unless you like swimming in your own dark sea
BbmBbm
These are times for urgent rhymes
C minorCm
But where the poetry?
C minorCm
AbAb
When the light
AbAb
The light is hard to find
C minorCm
and you're walking blind

You only need to change your mind

Your mind
F minorFm
Wide awake and hope-infected
I became the glittering queen
BbmBbm
Every light in my direction
C minorCm
was a bright magnificent green
F minorFm
Adorned with invisible riches
I saw my stitches glowing so bright
BbmBbm
No the burden was not heavy,
C minorCm
for the master it was light
C minorCm
AbAb
When the light
AbAb
The light is hard to find
C minorCm
and you're walking blind
Eb MajorEb
You only need to change your mind
Eb MajorEb
You only need to change your mind, your ...
(OK ... here's what I hear ... CbCb
with the keys Cb,
and then she pretty much builds on the C7C7 chord)
C minorCm
AbAb
When the light
AbAb
The light is hard to find
C minorCm
and you're walking, walking blind
AbAb
The light
AbAb
The light is hard to find
C minorCm
and you're walking blind
Eb MajorEb
You only need to change your mind
Eb MajorEb
You only need to change your mind
