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.

Icarus Wind

Intro: Gmaj7 D/F# Em Em (2x)
Cadd9
It's the Icarus wind,
D Em Em
it's blowing in my eyes
Cadd9
It's the Icarus wind,
D Em Em
it's telling me those lies
G D/F#
And its heart is like ice
Em Em
its fingers are long
G
And it knows just who'll be torn
D/F# Em Em
apart by that windsong
Gmaj7 D/F# Em Em
It's the Icarus wind
Cadd9
It's the Icarus wind,
D Em Em
blowing through my hair
Cadd9
It's the Icarus wind
D Em Em
loosening the threads
G
And, my God, it will stop you
D Em Em
right there, dead in your tracks
G
If you're just held together
D Em Em
with hope and candle-wax
Gmaj7 D/F# Em Em
(2x) It's the Icarus wind
Gmaj7 D/F#
And the higher it pulls me up,
Em Em
the hotter it gets
Gmaj7 D
It's the end of the dream around mid fire
Em Em
and cigarettes
Cadd9
It's the Icarus wind
D Em Em
blowing through my ears
Cadd9
It's the Icarus wind
D Em Em
dusting away those tears
G
Singing, baby the truth is
D/F# Em Em
that this won't hurt at all
G
Soon there'll just be feathers
D/F# Em Em
and the quiet of the fall
Gmaj7 D/F# Em Em
(3x) It's the Icarus wind
