Will Varley - 'Seven Days'

Intro:

C    F
C    F

Verse:

C
At the end of the road where I learned to fly

Her nose keeps bleeding, I don’t know why

F
The world changed, never did me no harm
C
Daytime antiques on demand

G            F               C
Seven days, a thousand nights away

C
And her voice said no, you won’t go far

Changing the world from the back of your car
F
You could build Rome in half a day
C
If you weren’t asleep in your marmalade
G            F               C
Seven days, a thousand nights away


Chorus:

C                     Am
Shut my eyes, maybe I disappear
      F                   G    F
Maybe tonight, maybe next year
          C                    Am
I shut my eyes, maybe it’s the right way
      G            F               C
To be seven days, a thousand nights away



Verse:


C
And the devil stopped dancing in your clothes

'cos he had no interest in your soul.
F
There was long days, tears were cried
       C
On the backstreets under moonlight skies.
       G
On the ocean, just before sundown;
        F                                  C
We were young then, but are we still young now?



Chorus:


C                     Am
Shut my eyes, maybe I disappear;
F                     G     F
Maybe tonight, maybe next year.
C                     Am
I shut my eyes, maybe it’s the right way
F                     G             C
To be seven days, a thousand nights away.



Verse:


        Am
And I’m thinking of you as the lights go down

On an unknown stage in an unknown town.
F
Find a bar with the lights still on,
C
Go drinking all night long.
G            F                  C
We are here; this is happening now.


Break:


C
Na na na, na na na na
F
Na na na, na na na na
C
Na na na, na na na na,
F
Na na na, na na na na.

C
Na na na, na na na na
F
Na na na, na na na na
G
Na na na, na na na na,
F            G  G  G
Na na na, na na na na.


Chorus:


C                     Am
Shut my eyes, maybe I disappear
               F                 G          F
in the morning light, we never belonged here.
          C                      Am
I shut my eyes, tell him that it didn’t go to waste.
          F             G               Am
He’s just seven days, a thousand nights away
          F             G               C
He’s just seven days, a thousand nights away.
