[Intro]
C Am C Am
[Verse]
Am C
No this is not my guitar
Am
I’m bringing it to a friend
C
And no I don’t sing
Am
I’m only humming along
[Verse]
C F
Up here in the air
C F
I’m just mumbling at the clouds
C F
Wanting to be known
C F Am C Am C
While I pass the lonely hours
[Verse]
Am C
I came down from the room
Am
I saw you in the rain
C
Laughing with some people
Am
Hair dripping down your face
[Verse]
C F
Your calm hypnotic eyes
C F
Your Scandinavian glow
C F
I felt them like a flame
C F Am C Am C
Candle in my cold bones
[Verse]
Am F
Tonight you were my muse
C F
As I belted and I strummed
C F
Trying not to drown
C F C F C F C
In the helicopter drone

[Verse]
Am C
From the crowd I heard
Am
You sing a pretty line
C
Was it: “there's so much love -
Am
That I wanna cry”
[Verse]
C F
I thought about it long
C F
Had you repeat it in my ear
C F
“I couldn't place a thought
Am C Am C Am C
Without you being so close”
[Verse]
Am C
Should’ve played it then
Am
From the intro to the end
C
When they offered me the stage
Am
At the bar we landed in
[Verse]
C F
But I turned and walked
C F
Away from all the fun
C F
And back into the black
C F Am C F
Seaside night of Alesund
