Then they launch into the verse:
(N.B. when strumming the chords highlight the top 3 strings to get the same
effect on the song.)
If this gets ugly, I swear, this ain't our last chance.
The vultures that circle, my head, are flying alongside.
The world's turning...
I let somebody get under my skin.
Long distance, losing is all that i'd seen.
Now there's a river.
Now there's a river.
Nothing can save me, my resolve betrayed me,
Here come the hurricanes,
I'm burning to get there, the middle of nowhere,
Storm warnings flicker while,
The world's turning.
I let somebody get under my skin.
Long distance, losing is all that i'd seen.
Now there's a river.
Now there's a river.
After chorus keep strumming the chorus chords...
Chorus
====== |
I let somebody| get under my skin.
Long distance, losing is all that i see.
Now there's a river.
Now there's a river.
Keep strumming the A chord until fade out.
