CHORDS


WINTER 

Capo 3rd fret

Intro: G C Am7 G D x2

G

Winter my fingers so cold

                                     Cadd9

Playing guitar seems a chore 

                                Am7

Wish I had a fire to sit by 

                                D7

Wish I had a fire to burn 

 

They say 

 

G

Water dances into snow 

                             Cadd9

Not that I’d know, still 

                                Am7

Wish I had a fire to sit by 

                                    D7

Wish I had a blaze to burn 

 

CHORUS

C            Bm7

My dear this will pass 

                   Em7

There’s no light without shade 

       A7

No joy without pain 

C            Bm7

My dear this will pass 

                   Em7          

There’s no light without shade 

       A7            

No joy without pain

 

G

Summer, sweet summer, isn’t lonely at all

                                          Cadd9

The sun warms the way a lover would

                                         Am7

When I’ve got a beach to lay on

                                                         D7

When I’ve got a beach to keep me warm 

 

C           Bm7

My dear this will pass 

                   Em7

There’s no light without shade 

       A7

No joy without pain 

C            Bm7

My dear this will pass 

                   Em7          

There’s no light without shade 

       C                  D

No joy without pain 

 


LYRICS

NEVER LET YOU GO

I don't remember

The last time

The last time I was held

Before we were locked up

Indefinitely

I didn't make it easy at all

When I get out (Oo oo oo oo)

When I am free

I'm gonna throw off my worry

Find you and

Never let you go

Never, never, never, never, never (Never let) let you go

I remember

How, how it feels

How it felt to be in love

Cuarentena

Understandably

Has left a longing I can't ignore

When I get out (Oo oo oo oo)

When I am free

I'm gonna throw off my worry

Find you and

Never let you go

I'm gonna throw off these worries

And never let you go

Throw it to the wind

Never let you go

When I get out (Oo oo oo oo)

When I'm free

I'm gonna throw off my worry

Find you and

Never let you go (Never let)

I'm gonna throw off my worry

Find you and

Never let you (Never let)

I'm gonna throw off my worry

Find you and

Never let you go


LIKE LOVERS DO

Verse

I often miss the signals

Straight over my head

I'd turned off those senses

In coming back to myself and

Ohhhh I tried to shake it

On the top of a Spanish hill

But one thing I know

I'm certain of is

Chorus 

Friends don't touch like lovers do

They sure don't fall in love

You, you can have all of me

When I can all of you

Verse 

When we met you and I agreed

Our connection undeniably real

And the time we spent together

Deeper than chemistry

I've learnt that life is for living and

I wanted to jump on in

But one thing I know

I'm certain of is

 

Chorus

Friends don't touch like lovers do

They sure don't fall in love

And you, you can have all of me

When I can all of you

 

Bridge

Don't try to tell me otherwise

I'm not, oh I'm not, no I'm not naive

It's your loss as well as mine

I'm not, oh I'm not, no I'm not naive

I'm not, oh I'm not, no I'm not naive

 

Chorus

Cause friends don't touch each other's souls like lovers do

They sure don't fall in love and

You, you don't get all of me

Without all of you

Without all of you


SEARCHING (FOR MORE)

I have walked this road alone
For longer than I can fathom
I've been searching for more

I kick up the dust with these well worn boots
My body aches, this packs a dead weight
I've been searching for more

My mind is free (free)
From worry and stress (free)
My legs keep on moving
Despite their destress
I've been searching for more, for more, for more (for more)
I've been searching for more (for more)

Oooo
Oooo
Oooo
Oooo
Ooooooooo

I wasn't born
Shackled and bound
To live life and not feel alive
I'll keep searching for more (for more)
I'll keep on searching, searching, searching (for more)
I'll keep on searching for more


GOLD

I catch gold flickers in the corner
Through the black of my eyelash
A reminder
Of the power
I hold
I was born from the ashes from the dust my body bold

I lost breath cursing to myself
Through the mist and over mountains
A reminder
Of the power
I hold
I was born from the ashes from the dust my body bold
I was born with these tracks from strength my body bold

Oooooo

I found fear lurking deep
Through the dark I stared it down
A reminder
Of the power
I hold
I was born from the ashes from the dust my body bold
I was born from the ashes from the dust my body strong

I was born from the ashes, from the dust, my body bold
I was born from the ashes, from the dust, my body strong
Ooo ooooo oooo ooooo
Ooo ooooo oooo ooooo
