THE SHINS: "SIMPLE SONG"

Una del nuevo.



Intro: |D - A - D| x 2   

|D| Well this is |A| just a |D| simple song |A|
|D|
To say what |A| you've |D| done |A|
|D|
I told you a-|A| bout |D| all those fears |A|
|D|
And away |A| they did |D| run
You sure |A| must be |G| strong...


And you feel like an ocean being warmed by the
|D
|
sun |A - D| - |A|

|D| When I was |A| just |D| nine years old |A|
|D|
I swear that |A| I |D| dreamt |A|
|D|
Your face |A| on a |D| football field |A|
|D|
And a kiss that |A| I |D| kept
Under |A| my |G| vest...


Apart from everything, the heart in my 
|D| chest |A - D| - |A|

......|Bm| I know that |D| things can really get |G| rough 
......when you |D| go it a-|G| lone |A|
......|Bm| Don't go |D| thinking you gotta be |G| tough, 
......to bleed |D| like a |G| stone |A|
......|Bm| Could be there's |D| nothing else in our |G| lives 
......so |D| criti-|G| cal |A|
......|G| As this little hole

|D| My life |A| in a |D| upturned boat |A|
|D| Marooned |A| on a |D| cliff |A|
|D| You brought |A| me a |D| great big flood |A|
|D| And you gave |A| me a |D| lift
Girl, |A| what a |G| gift...

Will you tell me with your tongue
And your breath was in my lungs
And we float up
|A| through the 

......|Bm| rift... I know that |D| things can really get |G| rough 
......when you |D| go it a-|G| lone |A|
......|Bm| Don't go |D| thinking you gotta be |G| tough, 
......to bleed |D| like a |G| stone |A|
......|Bm| Could be there's |D| nothing else in our |G| lives 
......so |D| criti-|G| cal |A|
......|G| As this little hole

Inter: |Em - Bm| x 2 - |Em - G| 

|D| Well this would |A| be a |D| simple song |A|
|D|
To say what |A| you've |D| done |A|
|D|
I told you a-|A| bout |D| all those fears |A|
|D|
And away |A| they did |D| run
You sure |A| must be |G6| strong...


And you feel like an ocean being warmed by the
|D
|
sun |A - D| x 3 - |A|


......|Bm| Remember |D| walking a mile to your |G| house, 
......aglow |D| in the |G| dark |A|
......|Bm| I made a |D| fumbling play for your |G| heart
......And the act |D| struck a |G| spark |A|
......|Bm| You wore a |D| charm on the chain that I |G| stole, 
......spe-|D| cial for |G| you |A|
......|Bm| Love's such a |D| delicate thing that we |G| do
......With |D| nothing to |G| prove |A|
......|G| Which I never knew |D|

CHARLIE WINSTON: "LIFT ME GENTLY"

Pedida por Marcelo Argañaraz. El tono original es G#m, capo en 2.



|F#m| If this river be my death bed |bajos: F# - F - F# - G#|
|A| Made by the madness of this man |bajos: B - A - G# - F#|
And |E| my words to him be |D| thank you,
|F#m| Would the heavens unders-|E4| tand?

All my |F#m| life I’ve been a good girl,
Every |A| night I’ve said my prayers
And I |E| hope that Jesus |D| heard me
|F#m| Through all my |D| tears.

Here's my |F#m| angels come to take me.
They are |A| haloed in the light,
But |E| I wish they’d touch me |D| softly,
They’re ag-|F#m| gressive and they’re up-|D| tight.

......|F#m| Lift me gently
......Or |A| leave me where I am.
......|Bm| I thought you’d be the hand of god.
......|F#m| But you’re just the same as |D| him.

......|F#m| Lift me gently.
......|A| Please not with human touch.
......|Bm| Christ knows I’ve had my |B7/C| share alive.
......And it |A/C#| never felt like |D| love |E4|

|F#m| So I’m face down in this river
And my |A| body is cold and useless
And the |E| angels pull at my |D| soul
|F#m| But it's anxious and it's |E4| nervous
And they |F#m| tell me

“You’re not the only one who |A| waits for their delivery,
|E| And your world’s too full of |D| lonely souls.
|F#m| And we’re rushed off our |D| feet”,
But I say, |E| please... 

......|F#m| Lift me gently
......Or |A| leave me where I am.
......|Bm| I thought you’d be the hand of god.
......|F#m| But you’re just the same as |D| him

......|F#m| Lift me gently.
......|A| Please not with human touch.
......|Bm| Christ knows I’ve had my |B7/C| share alive.
......And it |A/C#| never felt like  
......|D| love |Dm - A - Ddim --- Dmaj7 - Dm - A - C#7|

......|Dmaj7| Lift me |Dm| gently |A - Ddim|
......|Dmaj7| Lift me |Dm| gently |A|
