Chords with lyrics
Thousand Secrets – Sahara Smith
Capo III
Verse 1:
D MajorD E minorEm
Blue light breaking on the window glass & cool wind shaking in the long white grass
G+G A augmentedA D MajorD
The ocean speaks the language of the dawn
D MajorD E minorEm
Thin sails rising on the autumn sky, and the old man’s singing while the knots untie
G+G A augmentedA D MajorD
I looked back and all the ships are gone.
Chorus:
E minorEm D MajorD
And no one’s gonna know
E minorEm G+G D MajorD
The thousand little secrets that are slippin’ through the undertow.
E minorEm G+G D MajorD A augmentedA
There’s a quiet hunger I have curled myself inside
E minorEm A augmentedA D MajorD
and it’s a thousand secrets wide.
Sold white carnations in an neon bar
And when he turned sixteen he bought a stolen car,
Drove all the way to Dallas in the dark.
And I could fall in love but I’m so damn young
And I try to hold on but then the quicker rains come
And everytime they fall it breaks my heart.
Chorus:
And no one’s gonna know
The thousand little secrets that are slippin’ through the undertow.
There’s a quiet hunger I have curled myself inside
and it’s a thousand secrets wide.
Bridge:
G+G A augmentedA B minorBm G+G A augmentedA B minorBm
Every broken bridge, there’s mile of fallen leaves.
G+G A augmentedA B minorBm G+G A augmentedA D MajorD
And no one knows the river flows a thousand miles deep.
Verse 3:
Wanna walk on water, wanna walk downstream,
I wanna walk back to New Orleans, with the crash of broken glass in the yard.
I wanna quit this city in the midnight hush of a pale moon shinin’ on a southbound bus.
You never know what you’ve lost until you lose it hard.
Chorus/Outro:
And no one’s gonna know
The thousand little secrets that are slippin’ through the undertow.
There’s a quiet hunger I have curled myself inside
and it’s a thousand secrets wide.
There’s a quiet hunger I have curled myself inside
and it’s a thousand secrets wide.
and it’s a thousand secrets wide.
and it’s a thousand secrets wide.
