Thea Gilmore

Biography:

Thea Eve Gilmore (born 25 November 1979, Oxford, England, to Irish parents) is a British female singer-songwriter. She began her career working in a recording studio, where she was discovered by her now long-time collaborator, producer and sometime co-songwriter Nigel Stonier. Gilmore released her first album, Burning Dorothy, as a teenager in 1998 and over the course of the next four years, released increasingly well-received albums that earned her a reputation in the UK music press but no chart success.

Thea Gilmore Contessa

A D
Contessa, Contessa, oh please leave your hat by the door
A D
Well, I thought I told you you couldn’t call round anymore
A D
And outside in the street and the rains turning tricks on the day
A D
Contessa, I’ve told you so why do you come anyway?


A D
Well, ten years ago by the motorway bridge with a smile
A D
And your red lacquer shoes, oh you lived inside me for a while
A D
I had an old cow bone that I used to draw hearts in the dust
A D
Contessa please tell me just what the hell happened to us


E
‘Cause I’ve gone
D A
Gone run that road
E
I’ve gone
D A
Gone run that road
E D A
Run that road home


A D
I was a scared little kid with a head full of hormones and holes
A D
With one eye on atonement and a body already grown old
A D
There you were with your secrets and your notebook of genuine lies
A D
Saying “girl its your party but you sure as hell don’t wanna cry, don’t wanna cry


E
I’ve gone
D A
Gone run that road
E
I’ve gone
D A
Gone run that road
E D A
Run that road home

Yeah, run that road home


A D
So I was the black sheep, yeah, I was the lone cavalier
A D
But with a face like stone, oh Connie its lonely out here
A D
I’ve taken some pills and I’ve played with the hand I was dealt
A D
And you saved me that time but now I’ve learned to save myself


E
And I’ve gone
D A
Gone run that road
E
I’ve gone
D A
Gone run that road

Run that road home

Oh, run that road home

Yeah, run that, run that, rung that, run that, road home

Yeah, run that road home
