Title: Ground Beneath My Feet
I definitely have to capo up or change the key a little on this one, but your vocal range may vary...
[Verse]
G
I saw the light dance on your face
D
Paint the shadows of your shape
C G D
Back when the season made the days so long
G
And if I knew my time would come
D
With the lines rehearsed but never sung
C
I'd leave the chorus on your tongue
G D
I swear
[Chorus]
Em C D
Now I look around to see the ground beneath my feet
Em C D
Every second takes a thousand days away from me
Em
And if I close my eyes
C G D
I hear the gates swing wide
Em
And by the morning light
C G D
I will have seen both sides
[Verse]
G C D
I've got a funny feeling that it's my day to leave
Em C G D
Shoulders down the sweat drips across my cheek
G C G D
As I turn I can taste the salt in the shallow sea
Em G D
I feel their hearts beating next to me
Em G D
I hear the chatter of my teeth
[Chorus]
Em C D
And I look around to see the ground beneath my feet
Em C D
The final thrill, the quiet spill, the vile retreat
Em C G D
Do you see the waves running away from me?
Em C G D
You taste the cold here in the air i breathe
Em C G D
Why'd you let me go? 'Cause I can no longer see
[Bridge]
And I scream
G
Oh my god
G
Oh my god
G
Oh my god
G
Oh my god
G
Oh my god
G
Oh my god
[Chorus]
Em C D
Now I look around to see the ground beneath my feet
Em C D
Every second takes a thousand days away from me
Em
If I close my eyes
C G D
I hear the gates swing wide
Em
And by the morning light
C G D
I will have seen both sides
Em
So why'd you let me go?
C G D
I can no longer see
G
And I can't breathe
