More chords by Brian Fallon

Genre: rock, blues, indie


I'm assuming Brian plays this with a capo, since he doesn't typically play

shapes in the key of F, but if you wanna ditch the capo, just transpose up 3

so the

first chord reads "F".

The outro lyrics sound a little off to me but I just copied from Genius - if

anyone

has corrections, let me know!

[Intro]
D Bm D G (x2)

[Verse 1]
D Bm
Did you spend most of your life waitin'
D G
On a fairytale read between pages?
D Bm
Did you huddle up close to your boombox radio
D A G
Is somebody waiting on the same song?
Bm G
And we sold our souls on the fantasies
D A
we found in records and black and white movies
Bm G
And I used to beg June to burn me alive,
D A
if that would get me anywhere but here

[Chorus]
D A
Now Etta James, hit that symphony
Bm G
Cause she drips through my blood like a remedy
D
And for most of my sad life
A Bm A G
I figured I was gonna die alone
D A
Cause I just burned in the curve of my scars
Bm G
Twenty long years away from your heart
D A Bm A G
Til finally, finally, my love is in my arms
D Bm D A G
My love is in my arms

[Verse 2]
D
And it was impossible
Bm
to hold on to anything
D G
In my chest was a lonesome, growing cyclone
