Biography:
Red Guitar is an American rock band based in Kansas City. The band began when singer/songwriters Nick Nave and John McKenna met in college. From these roots grew a now-14-year partnership that has yielded many different band names and lineups, culminating in Red Guitar, which was formed in 2003. Through it all, the foundation is, and has always been, insightful, inspired folk/pop songwriting and rich vocal harmonies.
Red Guitar's second release, "Beauty Will Save the World" (2006)

Cadd9 G Cadd9 G D Cadd9
G
Cadd9 G
Did you ever wake up in an hour of darkness,
Cadd9 G
on a boat, prevailing winds at your back.
D Cadd9
Sunny, faded picture from your memory.
Cadd9 G
Jagged ridge for your path.
Cadd9 G
Were you lost inside the dream of another's choosing?
Cadd9 G
Did the rhythm of your days become your foe?
D Cadd9
Were countless hours of pity like a blanket
Cadd9 G
that covered up the daylight from your soul?
Cadd9 G D Dsus4 Cadd9 G
D Dsus4 Cadd9 G (two down strokes)
Halleeeeeeeeeelujahhh, halleeeeeeeeeelujahhh, hallelujah.
Cadd9 G
Were you hopeless at the thought of ever loving?
Cadd9 G
Were you hounded by the curses in the dark?
D Cadd9
Did you ever give until you just quit feeling;
Cadd9 G
a castaway with a bottled heart..
Cadd9 G
Did you ever think the worst was bound to happen,
Cadd9 G
the river rise and waters of the flood..
D Cadd9
Yeah, Honesty, another name for Heartache,
Cadd9 G
and Fear, like starlight, shining from above.
Cadd9 G D Dsus4 Cadd9 G
D Dsus4 Cadd9 G (two down strokes)
Halleeeeeeeeeelujahhh, halleeeeeeeeeelujahhh, hallelujah.
[interlude] Cadd9 G D Dsus4
(strum once in the final verse)
Cadd9 G
Are you in the eleventh hour of your desperation?
Cadd9 G
Can you dig through the tunnel and break through the night?
D Cadd9
Are you ready for the loosening of your chains
Cadd9 G
that kept you in the shadows in your time..
Cadd9 G D Dsus4 Cadd9 G
D Dsus4 Cadd9 G D Dsus4
Halleeeeeeeeeelujahhh, halleeeeeeeeeelujahhh, halleeeeeeeeeelujahhh,
Cadd9 G D Dsus4 Cadd9
