AS YOU ARE by Kimbra (from The Golden Echo)
Enjoy this beautiful, moving song by Kimbra and her collaboration with Van Dyke Parks
and Daniel Johns from Silverchair.
EDIT: Updated the chords and added an intro. I've felt all along that the previous version wasn't that "exact
sounding." After getting my ears tuned to more jazzy chords, this sounds more correct!
Key: A Minor
No Capo
INTRO: Fmaj7 Em7
[VERSE]
Fmaj7 Em7
I won't give it back again
Fmaj7 Em7
I won't give it back to you
Fmaj7 Em7
I won't give that part again
Fmaj7 Em7
I won't love another you
[PRE-CHORUS]
Fmaj7 Em7
'Cause honey that hourglass got me thinking
Am7 G
You ain't no friend of mine
Fmaj7 Em7
We were moving so fast and you got me thinking
Am7 G
Why not keep chasing time?
Fmaj7 Em7
I said, "Honey, I wanna find somewhere sacred,
Am7 G
Away from your flashing lights.
Fmaj7 G
Honey, I was yours in the dark of the night."
[CHORUS]
Dm7 G Em Fmaj7
Come as you are
Dm7 G Em Fmaj7
Come, let me take a picture
Dm7 G Em Fmaj7
Come as you are
Fmaj7
[VERSE]
Fmaj7 Em7
I won't give it back again
Fmaj7 Em7
More that I’m giving, the more you take
Fmaj7 Em7
I’m feeling forced into the intimate
Fmaj7 Em7
With every move I make into your frame
Fmaj7 Em7
Come on, take anything you like
Fmaj7 Em7
Come on, take anything you like
Fmaj7 Em7
Come on, take anything you like
Fmaj7 G
Come on, take anything you like
[PRE-CHORUS]
Fmaj7 Em7
'Cause honey that hourglass got me thinking
Am7 G
You ain’t no friend of mine
Fmaj7 Em7
We were moving so fast and the sand was sinking
Am7 G
Why not keep chasing time?
Fmaj7 Em7
Honey, I wanna feel something sacred,
Am7 G
Away from your flashing lights
Fmaj7 G
Honey, I was yours in the dark of the night
[CHORUS]
Dm7 G Em Fmaj7
Come as you are
Dm7 G Em Fmaj7
Come, let me take a picture
Dm7 G Em Fmaj7
Come as you are
Dm7 G Em Fmaj7
[BRIDGE]
A7
Come inside, a little to the right
G F
Get comfortable, you're a natural
A7
Come inside, it'll be alright
G F
A7
Love comes at a cost
But nothing’s ever lost
G
It's just another paradox
F
The dark was just never just for us
A7
Take another fast
Try to make it last
G
But this too, my love, shall pass
F
The dark was just never just for us
[OUTRO]
Am7 Em7 Fmaj7
And it all ends the same
Am7 Em7 Fmaj7
'Cause in time everything must change
A7
Take another fast
Em7 Fmaj7
Try to make it last if you want to
Am7 Em7 Fmaj7
But in time everything must go
