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 main parts of the song jump between two/three chords, but the chorus plays a few different notes...
Using Jack in Water's live recording (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rey-BbfyrLI), I came up with this!

[Verse 1]
C*
If somebody was to write us down
G*
We’d be a brightly coloured novel
Filled with pictures and with sound
C*
Whether it be a hard back or a soft back
G*
We’d be definitely bound with heart
[Verse 2]
C*
And if Shakespeare was our narrator
He would have to make up words
G*
All adjectives and similes
C* G*
That had never before been heard by humans, by humans
[Verse 3]
C*
A love story bound by happiness
An adventure in the clouds
G*
Filled with rhyming verse and speaking birds
A story about how
C*
Two humans fall together
Through a sequence of events
G*
And one of them is selfless and the other makes the bed
C* G*
They encompass all the sonnets, their a reason to fear death
[Chorus 1]
G
Either the gods all adore us
Am7
They shoot happiness from above
C*
I guess rather than wonder
C G
We should probably just fall in love
[Break]
C* C* C* C*(C/G) G* G* G* G*(C/G)
[Verse 4]
C*
And if our story was a film
It would definitely be
G*
A film directed by Tim Burton
With magic and mystery
1*
We'd be that bit in the English patient
Where Ralph is brought down to his knees
G*
Or a whole list of happy endings
C* G*
But this ones endless and its free, for us to decide
[Verse 5]
C*
We’d be an independent love film
We’d be critically acclaimed
G*
It would be happy and be awkward
With no sad twist at the end
C*
A montage of adventures
Between a boy and between a girl
G*
We'd meet mythical dark creatures
C* G*
Travel all around the world, whenever we wanted to
[Chorus 2]
G
Either the gods all adore us
Am7
They shoot happiness from above
C*
I guess rather than wonder
C G
We should probably just fall...
C*
I guess rather than wonder
C G
We should probably just fall...
C*
I guess rather than wonder
C G C
We should probably just fall in love
