xU2 - Stay (Faraway, So Close !)
Capo 1
Intro:
D Em G D
Verse:
D Em
Green light, Seven Eleven
G D
You stop in for a pack of cigarettes
D Em
You don´t smoke, don´t even want to
G D
Hey now, check your change
D E
Dressed up like a car crash
G D Em
Your wheels are turning but you´re upside down
D Em
You say when he hits you, you don´t mind
D
Because when he hurts you, you feel alive
Em G D
Hey babe, is that what it is
Verse :
Red lights, gray morning
You stumble out of a hole in the ground
A vampire or a victim
It depend´s on who´s around
You used to stay in to watch the adverts
You could lip synch to the talk shows
Bridge :
Em D
And if you look, you look through me
Em
And when you talk, you talk at me
A
And when I touch you, you don´t feel a thing
Refrain :
Em
If I could stay...
D
Then the night would give you up
Em D
Stay...and the day would keep its trust
Em G D
Stay...and the night would be enough
Verse :
Faraway, so close
Up with the static and the radio
With satelite television
You can go anywhere
Miami, New Orleans
London, Belfast and Berlin
Bridge :
Em D
And if you listen I can´t call
Em D
And if you jump, you just might fall
Em A
And if you shout, I´ll only hear you
Refrain :
If I could stay...
Then the night would give you up
Stay...then the day would keep its trust
Em G
Stay...with the demons you drowned
Em F#m
Stay...with the spirit I found
G A D
Stay...and the night would be enough
Verse :
D Em
Three o´clock in the morning
G D
It´s quiet and there´s no one around
D Em
Just the bang and the clatter
G D
As an angel runs to ground
D Em
Just a bang and a clatter
G D
As an angel hits the ground
