Four years of hard work!This month of May we celebrated four years on the air. We continue working on the dissemination of this wonderful instrument, thank you for participating in our story!
The chord progression is as follows although a capo on 2 can also be used to give the
sound as the album recording (i prefer without)
Chords used:
Em (022000)
C#m (x46654)
Am (x02210)
C (x32010)
F#m (244222)
F (133211)
G (355433)
D (xx0232)
Verses:
Em F#m
I can't undo the day
C#m C
It won't go, wont go under the rug
Em F#m
I pull out the stops
C#m C
And you, you pull the plug
Middle 8:
Em F G F
(played quickly)
These are soberer days and I know it can't be
Em F G F C
But I'll miss you the way, you miss the sea
Chorus:
D D Am
Don't look down
Am D D Am
Keep staring like you've never seen the stars
Am D D Am
If you need me to remind you who you are
Am
Little blossom there's the shiniest soul
Em
Just behind those eyes
(The end of the chorus needs an extra chord but cant for the life of me think wat it is)
Rest of the song follows same pattern:
No longer my affair
Well I can't go there just yet
So I've come to love and trust those friends
That are holding your net
Falling off used to mean
Maybe grazing a knee
And I'll miss you the way you miss the sea
(Just)Don't look down
Keep staring like you've never seen the stars
If you need me to remind you who you are
Little blossom there's the shiniest soul
Just behind those eyes
While I won't second guess
What you're thinking of me
I will miss you the way, you miss the sea.
(Just)Don't look down
Keep staring like you've never seen the stars
If you need me to remind you who you are
Little blossom there's the shiniest soul
Just behind those eyes
