Pick the following chords for the first verse how ever you see fit. Just listen to the rythmn.
E
The screaming was silver, this silence was gold
A2 C# B
The skin felt so warm, the blood ran so cold
E
I felt like a character that dies in the end
A2 C# B E
The credits role quickly, the frames blur and blend
(strum)
E
The fades were ingenious, the cuts were so clean
A2 C# B
If I could just realize what they meant to me
E
What have I done as I'm holding the gun
A2 C# B E
I murdered this love, now I'm on the run
C# B E
Chorus: On The Silver Screen
A2 B E
Ride off in the sunset with me
C# B A2
The curtains would close and the credits would role
C# B E
On the Silver Screen
E
A fugitive running when bad times arrive
A2 C# B
Me and my heart wanted dead or alive
E
Send out the hounds to pick up the scent
A2 C# B E
Put up some posters to find where your love went
(Chorus)
A2 B
Bridge:I picture a sun setting on a small town
E A2
Where music was playing on snow cover grounds
F# B
The smell of your sweet skin was too much to bear
A2 B
To reach out and touch, to play with your hair
(Chorus)
