This is the intro/chorus to Nashville's song Blind featuring Aubrey Peeples.
If the Am sounds off then just sub in Em for them.
I tried this on piano and the Am with inversion (E A C) worked well so I put it in.
This is played in standard tuning (i.e. no capo) but obviously put one on if you want to sing it
higher. Please rate generously.
Enjoy :)
No Capo
(Open single strum)
Em C
Crying under water, Breathing in outer space
D Am
Putting faith into something, that can never take place
Em C
Would you give every shard of my heart back to me
(Start strumming pattern)
D Am Em
Would you comb through the wreckage for it sldies into the sea
Em
I been searching for answers
C
I been workin' on a cure
D Am
I been a slow song dancer to a rhythm that's ain't pure
Em C
I will come around tomorrow and forget yesterday
D Am
I will bleed out the sorrow that you put in me today
(Chorus)
Em Am D Em
Cause I'm goin blind, I'm goin blind, I'm goin blind
Was a child when I met you
running wild as can be
Maybe someday I'll forget you
guess it wasn't meant to be
I will cut through indecision
I will take what is mine
I trust in my visions
but I will not trust my eyes
Cause I'm going blind
I'm going blind
I'm going blind
I'm a lone survivor
I'm the only one left here
You started the fire
but you only burn for fear
I waited to the finish
I can claim my victory
I'd memorize this moment
if my eyes could only see
Cause I'm going blind
I'm going blind
I'm going blind
