This is an amazing song by Nick Howard from the album "when the lights go up", I'm not
quite sure of the bridge just yet, but will update soon. I think he plays it Capo 3 but
sound good without.
Intro: D, Dmaj7, D7, G
Verse 1:
D Dmaj7
I don't ask for april showers,
D7 G
I don't ask for pouring rain,
D Dmaj7
I’m just sitting facing blue skies,
D7 G
just sitting waiting for my luck to change
Verse 2:
D Dmaj7
I don't think about the future
D7 G
Even with today takes to much time
D Dmaj7
So I'll just keep on chasing rainbows
D7 G
waiting on my chance to shine
Chorus:
D
I don't know how to get there,
Dmaj7
But I know this bird has flown
Em7
I don't care if I get lonely
G A
cause the flower needs to grow.
D
And I know the wind will take me
Dmaj7
and I know the seed is sown
Em7 G A
But I need time, yes I need time
D
to grow.
D, Dmaj7, D7, G
Verse 3:
D Dmaj7
Well I don't ask you how you got here,
D7 G
but what im doing means so much to you
D Dmaj7
You might never understand me
D7 G
But that's the difference between me and you
Verse 4:
D Dmaj7
NO I can't give an explanation
D7 G
and you cant even understand
D Dmaj7
so I'll keep chasing daydreams
D7 G
and you'll keep chasing sands (?)
Chorus:
D
I don't know how to get there,
Dmaj7
But I know this bird has flown
Em7
I don't care if I get lonely
G A
cause the flower needs to grow.
D
And I know the wind will take me
Dmaj7
and I know the seed is sown
Em7 G A
But I need time, yes I need time
D
to grow.
Bridge:
This flight might not be simple,
This journey might be long,
My life has different meaning,
This is where I must belong
Ill always send you postcards
You’ll always know my name
Cus these are my dreams,
Cus this is my way.
Verse 5:
D Dmaj7
I don't ask for april showers,
D7 G
I don't ask for pouring rain,
D Dmaj7
I’m just trying to to live my own life
D7 G
You should try and do the same
Chorus:
D
I don't know how to get there,
Dmaj7
But I know this bird has flown
Em7
I don't care if I get lonely
G A
cause the flower needs to grow.
D
And I know the wind will take me
Dmaj7
and I know the seed is sown
Em7 G A
But I need time, yes I need time
D
to grow.
