guitar chords lyrics
Oviedo - Blind Pilot
I kind of amalgamated this version by looking at a few other tabs
and figuring some stuff out on my own. I think it's pretty good.

Capo 5 - Chords relative to capo
A* x03130 (I don't know the actual name of the chord)
I like to play the F's as Fmaj7 (x33210) but F sounds good too
There's a melody that can be added on top of the intro chords, but it's
quite simple and you're all intelligent people, so I'm sure you'll figure it
out!
Intro
C E F(maj7) G C
Verse 1
C E
The thrill here is quicker than you'd think
F
The way some jet-lagged bar kept pouring the wine
C G
From over their heads then sit back down again
C E
Four times is once too much for luck
F
That's how many times the clock struck
C G
I wandered home, saying your name
A* C A*
Verse 2
C E
The arches here were built 'cause they don't fall
F
The cat dead drawls to make you feel small
C G
You might find your small soul
C E
Leave the preaching to the president
The crowd cheers, his eyes get wet
F
I'm full as it is, I'm full as it is
C G
So don't feed me more
Chorus 1
E F C
You'll be having my head, big as a birthday
E F C G
'Cause I left all my doubts on the airplane
A* C G
I didn't know, I didn't know I'm not in control
A* C
I didn't know, I'm not invincible
(Intro chords)
Verse 3
C E
And maybe some things are better left unsaid
F C G
But if you wanted to test that, I will, yeah, I guess, I could've said
C E
But there were nights in bars that I recall
F
Your breath was courage laced with alcohol
C G
You leaned in, you said,
Chorus 2
E F C
"Make music with the chatter in here,
E F C G
And whisper all the notes in my ears."
A* C G
I didn't know, I didn't know the way of my tongue
A*
I didn't know, I didn't know what I'd done
Break
(The structure sounds a bit odd on its own, but I'm pretty sure it's right)
C (2bars) A*(2bars) F(2bars) C(2bars)
A*(2bars) C(1bar) F(1bar) A*(2bars) C(2bars)
Verse 4
(C) E
The lights here are softer than you'd think
F
The dim lit peacocks in the trees,
C G
They're hiding their eyes and their beauty, like me
C E
But if my eyes were on my back
F
I know what I'd be looking at
C G
Through every shade of brown and green
Outro
A* C G
I didn't know, I didn't know it was nothing new
A* C
I didn't know, I didn't know it was you
