Intro: F Bb F Bb F Bb F Bb Verse: F Bb Well I woke up to the sound of silence and guns F Bb were cutting like knives in a fist fight F And I found you with a bottle of wine Bb F Bb your head in the curtains and heart like the 4th of July F You swore and said we are not Gm we are not shining stars F This i know Bb cause i never said we are F Though I've never been through hell like that Bb F Bb I've closed enough windows to know you can never look back Chorus: F Bb C If you're lost and alone, or you're sinkin like a stone F Bb C Carry on F Bb C May your past be the sound of your feet upon the ground F Bb C Carry on F Bb F Bb Carry on carry on Verse: F Bb So I met up with some friends at the edge of the night F Bb at a bar off 75 F Bb And we talked and talked about how our parents will die F Bb All our neighbors and wives Pre-Chorus: F But i'd like to think Gm I can cheat it all F Bb to make up for the times i've been cheated on F And it's nice to know Gm when i was left for dead F I was found and I know not these streets Bb C I am not the ghost you want to be Chorus: F Bb C If you're lost and alone, or you're sinkin like a stone F Bb C Carry on F Bb C May your past be the sound of your feet upon the ground F Bb C Carry on Interlude: C ohhhhhhhhhhhhh Bridge: Bb F C My head is on fire, but my legs they're fine Bb F C Cause after all, they are mine Bb F C Lay your clothes down on the floor, close the door, hold the phone Bb C show me how, no one's ever gonna stop us tonight Interlude: F Gm F Bb F Gm F Bb Pre-Chorus: F Gm Cause we are, we are shining stars F Bb We are invincible, we are who we are F Gm On our darkest day, when we're miles away F Bb C Sun will come, we will find our way home Chorus: F Bb C If you're lost and alone, or you're sinkin like a stone F Bb C Carry on F Bb C May your past be the sound of your feet upon the ground F Bb C Carry on Outro: F Bb Carry on carry on F Bb Carry on carry on
I don’t understand, why are there letters above this strange poetry?
this song is the thing getting me through freshman year
transpose it +2 for easier notes
2+ has easier chords, yet I dont know a good strumming pattern that fits well enough
during the verses i would strum once for each note and draw it out and then during the chorus i would do i simple strum pattern.
it sounds like there should be a few more chords here, but most of it sounds great!
ko
Or take it to -3 for easier chords and, probably, the ability to actually sing with the song if you have trouble with those high notes.
