The Shade - Metric
Dm Bb F
I'm following the sun light setting in the west
We're floating on a bed of fading lights
Dm Bb F
A canopy of trees bears witness to the breeze
Dm
I'm falling like a feather soft and light
Bb F
Baby there's no better time
Dm
No better time baby we can't find
C Bb
Oh-whoa-whoa oh-whoa-whoa
Chorus:
C
With eternal love the stars above
Dm
All there is and ever was
Bb
I want it all I want it all x
C
A blade of grass a grain of sand
Dm
The moonlit sea to hold your hand
Bb
I want it all I want it all x
Dm Bb F
The embers of a fire still burning as they die
Dm
Stay bright to keep us side by side
Bb F
Baby there's no better time
Dm
No better time baby we can't find
C Bb
Oh-whoa-whoa oh-whoa-whoa
Chorus x2
G C
We got the sunshine we got the shade
Dm Bb
We got temptation we got it made
G C
We got rewarded we got refused
Dm Bb
We got distorted we got confused
G C
We got the sunshine we got the shade
I want it all I want it all x
Chorus x2
