xBand: The Wallflowers
Song: How far you've come
Album: Rebel, Sweetheart
This is the first song I ever learned to play on guitar.
Credits for giving me the chords and learning me to play it goes to my good friend Johan Westman.
Standard tuning.
No capo.
The intro guitar goes like:
e--5--5-4-5-2----5-4-5-----5-7-5-4-2--------|
B----------------------5--------------------|
G-------------------------------------------|
D-------------------------------------------|
A-------------------------------------------|
E-------------------------------------------|
I had a little trouble finding out what the the real chord for the C#maj7 should
be but it looks like
e ---4--
B ---6--
G ---4--
D ---6--
A ---4--
E ---4--
It's a simple pattern that goes the same in all the verses.
A C#maj7 F#m
You'd have a wonderful day
D A E D D
If you could see how lucky you are
E A D
Now don't get carried away with your heart
E A
You're better where you are
You're not the only one
Who's had to hang on to a moving star
Now don't be sorry, what's done now is done
And this is who you are
These days feel numbered and long
There's no one to speak of, there's no one at all
But you're not the reason that everyone's gone
That's not how they are
There is no system to change
No conditions are made, no permissions to start
Now don't go drawing lines in the sand
That's not who you are
A C#maj7
Sometimes a high wall is just a wall
D
Sometimes it's only there to make sure you feel small
D E A
Or maybe there to save you from the depths of a much deeper fall
The truth will not set you free
It's okay to believe that you're not good enough
God is not angry, not blind, deaf, or dumb
He knows how far you've come
He knows how far you've come
He knows how far you've come
Hope you like it, good luck!
