guitar chords lyrics
[The lyrics are usually wrong whenever I look them up and on other versions of this
These lyrics are straight from the cover pamphlet of the CD.)
Capo 1
[Verse 1]
Am G D
In the party lull, some band's playing Hallelujah...Hallelujah...
Am G D
In the corner, the all night girls drink wine and try to sing along
Am G D
I've made a mess of things, my stops and in betweens they weigh me down
Am G D
But you've got someone new singing you your songs now...right now...
[Chorus]
G Am Cadd9 G D Cadd9
I'd sooner surrender, than watch the last wall collapse.
G Am Cadd9 G D
Cadd9
I'd sooner surrender, then our love would count for everything.
[Verse 2]
Am G D
In my sweetest dreams, it's just you and me, and we break wide.
Am
I wake reminded love, of how I just gave up,
G D
and how you moved on, how you moved on...
Am
I'm waiting for something, I've waited for now,
G D Am
for the rolling canyons of love.
G D
But I'm tongue tied and you're coming alive, coming alive.
[Chorus]
G Am Cadd9 G D Cadd9
Sooner surrender, than watch the last wall collapse.
G Am Cadd9 G D
Cadd9
I'd sooner surrender, then our love would count for everything...
[Bridge]
Am G D Am
I'm sorry that you're gone, so sorry that you've gone
Am G D
I'm sorry that you've gone, ohhh.
Am G D
Cadd9
And I'm sorry that you've gone, so sorry that you've gone away...
Am
You're a little bit right...
Cadd9 Am Cadd9
More than a little bit right, with my arms around you
[Chorus]
G Am Cadd9 G D Cadd9
Sooner surrender, than watch the last wall collapse.
G Am Cadd9 G D
Cadd9
I'd sooner surrender, and our love would count for everything...
G Am Cadd9 G D Cadd9
I'd sooner surrender, than watch the last wall collapse, I know,
G Am Cadd9 G D
Cadd9
I'd sooner surrender, and our love would count for everything...
G D Cadd9
And our love would count for everything...
G D Cadd9
And I miss when you were everything...
