guitar chords lyrics
So it's basically D for the intro with a couple of changes here and there which I'll let
you figure out. The it goes:
Bm G
so go ahead and lie to yourself,
A
and pretend that you�re a ray of light,
A
when you�re a broken candle,
Bm G
you�re keeping time with yourself,
A
when did it all start moving way too fast,
A
for you to handle,
Bm G
you�re short on breath but heavy on time,
A Bm A
you lost the words but you found the rhyme,
G A
it�s all just poetry now,
the walls are singing,
Bm G A
hallelujah amen,
the walls are singing,
Bm G A
hallelujah amen,
*piano*
Bm G A
Bm G A
Bm G
it�s so dark in the room,
A
and the ceilings are high,
you know the feeling,
Bm
you�ve been here before,
Bm G
But it�s a broken old pew,
A
and it�s an echoing cry,
Bm
don�t sell yourself short,
G
on breath and heavy on time,
A Bm A
you lost the words but you found the rhyme,
G A
it�s all just poetry now,
the walls are singing,
Bm G A
hallelujah amen,
the walls are singing,
Bm G A
hallelujah amen,
x2
Now's the part where it gets all intense and in the latest version Sam does his speech.
Basically the chords are
Bm G A
or something along those lines.
Bm G
in time you�ll find,
A A
this life�s a painting and you�re the artist,
Bm G
so open your eyes,
A A
it�s never too late to clear your canvas,
Bm
so paint me jealous,
G
paint me rage,
A Bm A
for God�s sake paint me anything,
G
just paint,
A
your brush awaits,
Bm G A
hallelujah amen,
the walls sing you to sleep,
Bm G A
hallelujah amen,
Bm G A
one secret meant to keep you safe tonight,
Bm G A
I swear that everything will be alright
and then the last note is the 5th fret of the bottom string
