| G A What did they just say?! If you find yourself asking this then here are some of the words to our songs, if you'd like to strum along at home the chords are there too - you just have to put them in the right order and Bobs yer uncle and Fanny's yer auntie! |
 |
| on every side
(E A5/E B C#m G#m) I don’t want your tear to fade where it landed on the cloth It reminds me of your joy I don’t want it to dry out, so I feel like I’m lost without you here with me We threw branches from the bridge and we watched them hit the water They made ripples in the stream and we walked and talked for summer So I feel warmth from you without you here with me |
| when darkness swallows
(Em Bm G A D Bm7/F# A5/F# C/G Dadd4/A Em/B A5 F#m/C# G/D C) Where we meet again can we stay forever can you tell me why you are not scared It’s not about nice gestures it's all about the feelings that you have And it's not about the process it's just about the effort that you make You take your time make sure you take your time you put it off you always put it off It’s not about all your plans it's just about the actions that you take Where we meet again can we stay forever can you tell me why you are not scared Fears that fall on our eyes when darkness swallows say that you'll return to put things right |
| no resolve
(C#m D#m7b5 G# G#7 A F#m E Cdim Eaug C#minMaj7) I’ve been sleeping on your side of our bed cause in my head it still smells of you But the truth is you have been long gone And I’ve been dreaming about you and I lying here again but when I think I realise I’ve not slept for long enough to dream it must mean that you’re in my head The hardest thing is learning to let go but time will heal Glass smashed but I am in control just feel destructive A bad trip is sitting in my drawer I won’t go that way I sit; my head is in my hands there’s no resolve There’s nothing for it, just soldier on, be myself and time will pass and put my mind at rest I hope Then if it’s really meant to be you’ll come around |
| adhesive
(A/D D5 A5/D F#m/B B5 F#5/B A5 E5 F#5 E/G# C#5 We come entangled like Velcro strips – simple, uncomplicated Our hands hold tighter than a rescuer’s grip you already saved me The attraction’s stronger than magnetic I know because we’re shaking I think it’s safe to say now that we made it stick I never want to break it So it’s been forty months since he played Marx to which we danced I wish I could dance wish I knew some real moves and not just amble around the room so awkwardly Tripping over my own feet And it’s been just nine months since we flew out to spend some time I wish we could see the whole World together And I like how we lay just me and you on St. Stephen’s Green on the last day of June I wish we could now be that way So it’s been just five months since you went north and weeks got long I wish I could have more time with you And I like how we lay it was just me and you back on St. Stephen’s Green on the last day of June I wish we could now be that way |
| trial and error / the process
(Badd11 F#11 E Emaj7/G#) I know you want to go but you won’t say so and you’ll never get your chance to show You can let yourself go but can you bring yourself back Do you stand and fight a losing battle try to run when you’ve no legs to stand on And chase after all the dreams you’ve shattered then carry on you carry on When he told me what he’d seen what did he really mean he was telling of a place he’d never been He said something about a dream that in three steps I could live He said effort patience and belief the only ingredients I would need And if I were to fall at least I’d have tried it and that’s how you learn that’s how you learn |
| intuition
(E F G C5 Bb5 Cmadd9 D Dsus4 C) Fall for nothing and keep your wits right by you stand and watch them try anything to rob you Its dog eat dog and each man for himself it never pierced me in a scream I never read it in a book I never saw it on a screen and you can’t say you told me so But I will be rude if that won’t mean I’ll be left out and I will not cry in front of you it makes you sad Won’t be considered a pushover I’ll stand my ground When I’ve seen enough I’ll turn about and walk right out without a care I hate when it seems they’re all out to get me the walls close in and the doors slam in my face Sometimes I’m tired of my own consciousness but then I’d hate to I’d hate to be numb |
| all the stars
(Em D C Bm Am {Gadd11/E,/D,/C,/B and /A played over this} G E5 D5 C5 B5 A5) All the stars knew all along knew one day that they would be outshone And all the stars beyond the sun knew one day that you would come along And blast them out the sky and put them in your eyes So beautiful too beautiful to hide A beautiful disguise or beautiful inside I don’t know I know I want to find All the stars are jealous of you now you make them dull somehow I used to think of them as the most beautiful things But now I judge beauty on a scale of one to you All the stars hidden in the shade darkened by the shadow that your beauty made And all the stars beyond the sun knew one day that you would come along All the stars beyond the moon could never outshine the beauty that is you |
| second in command
(E Eadd9 D D/C# D A A5 B5 C5 D5, guitar tuned EBEABE plays sus chords and makes it sound noice!) I looked at today thought it was looking bright and everything would be fine But then you looked at today said you were bored of it different day but the same shit So? So what is now? Is now just a waste of time? Don’t make it a waste of mine Needing more from your mind need you to help me find some way through Needing more confidence needing some stimulus Don’t need you to tell me that it can’t be done Things aren’t what they used to be things aren’t what they could have been I wouldn’t change anything Just look at what we used to be progress is so plain to see and I wouldn’t change anything |
