capo 5
[INTRO]
[V1]
C Am7 G
A disconcerting way to wake:
to find everything in place
C Am7 G F
the world goes on without my faith in anything
C Am7 G
to have to drag myself from bed,
pull a sweater over my head
C Am7 G F
somehow find a way to brave the sun again
[CH 1]
Am F
And all of this
Am F
just as I was beginning
Am7 Em* F
to have the most amazing dream.
[V2]
C Am7
They rolled the stones away
G
and let everyone
C Am7 G F
come right in and say hello to me.
C Am7 G
They picked me up and held me there
C
and smiled at my
Am7 G F
crumpled wings.
[CH 2]
Am F
And all of this
Am F
just as I was beginning
Am7 Em* F
to have the most amazing dream.
Am - F - Am - F
Am7 - Em* - F
[INST] C - Am7 - F - [Em* - G] (x4)
[OUTRO]
C Am7 F [Em* - G]
And when you go to sleep at night,
C Am7 F [Em* - G]
don't you ever feel the weight
C Am7 F [Em* - G]
of all the things that make you happy;
C Am7 F [Em* - G]
that float around you, pull you down?
Am F
And don't you
Am F
ever want to
Am7 Em* F
stand up on the waves and run?
[CHORDS]
Em*: 022010
Am7: X02010 (it sound better, but a regular Am works alright too)
F: 133211
**the whole INST part is built around the pull of the B-string (000010), so in general
chords should be PICKED like this:
C: X32010 - X32000 - X32010
Am: X02210 - X02200 - X02210
F: no change
Em*: 022010 - 022000
G: 320010 - 320000
it's very similar to the structure of "True Love Waits" only much slower (and picked, if
prefer)
you can also have a lot of fun working in the really high-pitched electric solo at the end:
E:-------3--|
B:-0-1------|
G:----------|
