Kodaline is a Dublin-based Irish alternative rock quartet. Originally known as 21 Demands, the band made chart history in March 2007, when their debut single "Give Me A Minute" topped the Irish Singles Chart; becoming the first independently released track to achieve the feat. In 2005 the band made it to the final of RTE-broadcast programme 'You're a Star' in Ireland, coming in second place, and then in 2011 they changed their name to Kodaline.
Four years of hard work!This month of May we celebrated four years on the air. We continue working on the dissemination of this wonderful instrument, thank you for participating in our story!
The guitar is usually tuned down etc, as such this version will sound naturally higher however it is exactly the same notes and works with the song. Intro is A strumming "G"
[Verse 1]
GCG All I want is nothing more DEm To hear you knocking at my door CG Cause' if i could see your face once more CG I could die a happy man i'm sure
GCG When you said your last goodbye DEm I died a little bit inside CG And I lay in tears in bed all night CGD Alone without you by my side
[Chorus]
Em But if you loved me C Why'd' ya leave me G Take my body D Take my body
Em All I want is C And all i need is G To find somebody D I'll find somebody
GCG Like youuu, ohhhh, oh GDEm ohhhhh, ohhhhh, oh CG youuuuuu CG Like youuuuuu
[Verse 2] GCG 'Cause you brought out the best of me DEm A part of me I'd never seen CG You took my soul wiped it clean CG Our love was made for movie screens
[Chorus]
Em But if you loved me C Why'd' ya leave me G Take my body D Take my body
Em All I want is C And all i need is G To find somebody D I'll find somebody
