Damien Rice (born December 7, 1973) is an Irish singer-songwriter. He was born in Dublin, Ireland, to George and Maureen Rice and was raised in Celbridge, County Kildare, Ireland. In March 1999 Damien moved to Tuscany, then travelled around Europe, busking the streets. He arrived back in Dublin a year later, with a clear head and full of ideas. Damien started playing and recording music with his first band, Juniper. After a few years he decided creatively it was not for him so he left the band (Newly named Bell X1) to start a solo career.

the palm mute here is a light palm muting and is not continous.it lifts off in some but only for a slight moment.this goes in everywhere where AM** or F** is seen
/easy way strum chords normally.AM** is just normal AM, it is just refering to the more difficult way
[Verse 1]
AM** AM** Don't hold yourself like that F** F** You'll hurt your knees AM** AM** I kissed your mouth, and back F** F** And that's all I need GF Don't build your world around GF(S0) Volcanoes melt you down
[Chorus]
AM** F** What I am to you is not real AM** F** What I am to you, you do not need AM** F** What I am to you is not what you mean to me AM** You give me miles and miles of mountains F(SO) And I'll ask for the sea
[Verse 2]
AM** AM** Don't throw yourself like that F** F** In front of me AM** AM** I kissed your mouth, your back F** F** Is that all you need? GF Don't drag my love around GF(SO) Volcanoes melt me down
[Chorus]
AM** F** What I am to you is not real AM** F** What I am to you, you do not need AM** F** What I am to you is not what you mean to me AM** You give me miles and miles of mountains FF And I'll ask for
[Outro]
CE What I give to you is just what I'm going through AMF This is nothing new, no, no just another phase of finding CE what I really need is what makes me bleed AMF like a new disease, Lord, she's still too young to treat
*note* (the following uses computer effects and echos and stuff so you can just repeat and F**)
Volcanoes melt you down She's still too young + what i'am to you + you do not need + is not real I kissed your mouth You do not need me
