Love Lies Bleeding Chords & Lyrics by Elton John
Love Lies Bleeding
guitar chords lyrics
This is a two part song really, but since I'm after the singing bit I'm
only going to do part two, Love Lies Bleeding.
The fade out from Funeral For A Friend is just two chords repeated...
A / Bbmaj7 /
The introduction to Love Lies Bleeding goes like this...
A // C // G // F / G /
The F and the second G only get half a bar each.
A
The roses in the window box
E
Have tilted to one side
A
Everything about this house
Bm
Was born to grow and die
A Bm D
Oh it doesn't seem a year ago to this very day
A
You said I'm sorry honey
E
If I don't change the pace
D E F#m
I can't face another day
Bm E
And love lies bleeding in my hand
F#m Bm E
Oh it kills me to think of you with another man
F#m Bm
I was playing rock and roll and you were just a fan
C#m
But my guitar couldn't hold you
D Dm
So I split the baaaa-a-ha-a-nd
F#m E A C G... (Introduction here)
Love lies bleeding in my hands
A
I wonder if those changes
E
Have left a scar on you
C#m D
Like all the burning hoops of fire
Bm B7
That you and I passed through
A
You're a bluebird on a telegraph line
Bm D
I hope you're happy now
A E
Well if the wind of change comes down your way girl
D E F#m
You'll make it back somehow
Chorus
(About now Elton does his thing with the piano, and there's a guitar solo
but the chords are the same as for the intro)
Chorus
There's more singing over the chorus, and then a guitar solo fade with the
chord pattern from the intro.
