Faded Paper Figures

North By North

by Faded Paper Figures
Faded Paper Figures

Biography:

Bands typically break up after college. People move away, grow apart, or just shrivel up and get jobs. It was good while it lasted, right? But what happens when the music is so good, the band’s listeners so devout, the ambition to keep creating so strong that even the time-draining power of day jobs can’t get in the way? Such is the story of Faded Paper Figures, whose “day jobs” are not exactly easy gigs: Heather Alden is in residency after graduating from medical school (a real doctor!)

Capo 2

G Em C G
North by north— lest we have to settle down
G Em C G
we can sail without the wind in this town
G Em C G
Things that London never saw
G Em C G
Northern winters start to thaw;
Em C
To islands on the sea,
G C
lands I’ve never seen,
G Em C G
things will get calmer—follow me.


Am G6 C
You said a long long time ago
G Am
you were happy being someone
Am G6 C
Let's go far far far from home
G
I'll be glad to be with someone


Am, Em, G (x2)


G Em C G
Land pneumonia, your engines in repair;
G Em C G
plant begonias, and orchids in your hair.
G Em C G
Continents all made of clay
G Em C
Dreamers leaving every day
Em C
To islands on the sea,
G C
lands I’ve never seen,
G Em C G
things will get calmer—follow me.


G Em C G
Someone told me you had oceans in your eyes
G Em C G
Cold as shadows over European skies
G Em C G
Coasting out the shallow day
G Em C G
Leaving London in decay
Em C
To islands on the sea,
G C
lands I’ve never seen,
G Em C G
things will get calmer—follow me.
