My Love Took Me Down To the River To Silence Me Chords & Lyrics by Little Green Cars
My Love Took Me Down To the River To Silence Me
guitar chords lyrics
This is my first tab so I hope it goes well.
I really love Little Green Cars and they barely had tabs
for any of their songs so I gave this one a go. Please correct any of
it if you think it's wrong. I'm not 100% sure this is exactly how Adam/Stevie plays most of it,
but I made sure it sounded like it.
There are a lot of holding out chords in this one,
but you can play it however you like. * = strum once
Enjoy!
C* Em*
Down to the river to silence me, love took me down to the river to silence me
C*
love took me down to the river to silence me, love took me down to the river to silence me
Em*
love took me down to the river to silence me, love took me down to the river to silence me
C* Em*
My love took me down to the river to silence me,
C* Em*
And when he left I could not speak.
C* Em*
I lay on the ground I tried to scream,
C* Em*
But no sound did come out, I could only bleed blue.
C* Em*
I waited for him till the frost did come,
C* Em*
My skin it turned blue and my body was numb.
C* Em*
But my heart it burned out till it was no more,
C* Em*
Still I wait on the ground I don't know what for.
Am* Em*
There, there is a heart in here.
Am* Em*
Where, where is the heart in here?
Am C
This love's killing me but I want it to.
Am C
So long you're gone, just like I always knew.
G Am
But I'm still here waiting for you.
G Am (hold it out)
But I'm still here waiting for you.
C Em
My love took me down to the river to silence me.
C Em
And when he left I could not speak.
C Em
And what he said to me I can never say.
C Em
Because it's breaking my heart to this very day.
Am* Em*
There, there is a heart in here.
Am* Em*
Where, where is the heart in here?
Am C
This love's killing me but I want it to.
Am C
So long you're gone, just like I always knew.
G Am
But I'm still here waiting for you.
G Am (hold it out)
But I'm still here waiting for you.
C*
Down to the river to silence me,
Em*
love took me down to the river to silence me
(repeat this a total of 13 times. You should hear when they change from C to Em)
Am Em
There, there is a heart in here.
Am Em
Where, where is the heart in here?
Am C
This love's killing me but I want it to.
Am C
So long you're gone, just like I always knew.
G Am
But I'm still here waiting for you.
G Am
But I'm still here waiting for you.
G Am
Here waiting for you.
G Am
Here waiting for you.
