Album: A augmentedA deeper understanding
CAPO 4
Intro:
G+G E minorEm x3
Verse 1:
G+G
Goin' out the way I always do
E minorEm
Callin' out your name
D MajorD
Tryin' not to hate myself
C majorC
For gettin' in the middle
And shining every light upon it
Verse 2:
G+G E minorEm
Still I miss the way you’d hold me close in a cold wind
D MajorD
I caught you in our room staring at the light
I’d been up all night
C majorC
Is this life and we’re just living it?
Bridge:
A minorAm E minorEm D MajorD
Still I wanna celebrate our love
Verse 3:
G+G
I’ve been rollin' like a sixteen
I can die on the floor
E minorEm
I’ve been shackled and delivered
D MajorD
There’s a girl out there with silence in her eyes
C majorC
Her truth is in the dark
Bridge 2:
D MajorD C majorC
And I see you comin' in view
B minorBm
Yeah, I need you
A minorAm
I’m comin' in two
G+G
In view
Chorus:
C majorC G+G D MajorD E minorEm C majorC G+G D MajorD
Ain’t no wind that I could feel in a fleetin' rain
C majorC G+G D MajorD
Turn around and rip my heart
E minorEm C majorC G+G D MajorD
Then look at it and say how you broke away
C majorC G+G D MajorD E minorEm C majorC
Ain’t no way to elevate to another line
G+G D MajorD
With nowhere to go
C majorC G+G D MajorD
Ain’t no chains to hold you in
E minorEm C majorC
To hold you to
G+G D MajorD
To losing you
Instrumental:
G+G E minorEm
Verse 4:
G+G
Hiding from an enemy
When something inside me died
E minorEm
It’s hard to see real clear these days
With darkness on my mind
D MajorD
As I stare into the ocean floor
And I wonder where I once was
C majorC
Was I fallin' through the air tonight
Then crumble into your arms?
G+G
Is this love?
E minorEm
Are you sure?
D MajorD C majorC
Is it something you can control?
G+G
I’m retired
E minorEm
I’m in chains
D MajorD
I’m in love
C majorC
I’m in pain
Verse 5:
G+G
All these changes everywhere
Just go ahead and take my hand
E minorEm
Hold me close, now let me go
Try and understand
D MajorD
I believe in all the power
In doing what we can do
C majorC
We can try and learn to make it through
Then come out the other side
Bridge 3:
D MajorD C majorC
I don’t see you at all comin' in view
B minorBm A minorAm
How do we decide what we can do?
B minorBm
I don't read your mind
A minorAm
Gimme truth
G+G E minorEm D MajorD C majorC
