Biografía:
Damien Rice (7 de diciembre de 1973, Celbridge, County Kildare) es un músico irlandés.
Originalmente Rice fue el cantante de Juniper, una banda de rock que llegó a lanzar los singles "The World Is Dead" y "Weatherman". En la víspera de la grabación de su primer álbum en 1999, a Rice no le gustó la dirección comercial que estaba tomando el disco, debido a la presión de la discográfica Polygram, y decidió abandonar el grupo.
Sus compañeros de Juniper se convirtieron en Bell X1.

“Grey Room” by Damien Rice off the Album “9”
Chords:
C/G: 332010
F: 133211
Em: 022000
G: 355433
Notes on strumming:
There are lots of hammer-ons and pull-offs in this song. In general:
When he plays the C/G chord, he does the hammer-ons and pull-offs with the open D string
the E note on the second fret.
When he plays the F chord, he does the hammer-ons and pull-offs with the open G string
the A note on the second fret.
During the verse, right before you change from the F chord back to the C/G, he does a
pull-off with the F chord like it's described above.
If you want to keep the F bass note on that F chord, you could play it with your thumb
I like to do to keep a nice, full sound (plus it's cool to play with your thumb).
So it goes like this:
C/G chord hammer-on:
E|--0-0-----|
B|--1-1-----|
G|--0-0-----|
D|--0h2-----|
A|--3-3-----|
E|--3-3-----|
C/G chord pull-off:
E|--0-0-----|
B|--1-1-----|
G|--0-0-----|
D|--2p0-----|
A|--3-3-----|
E|--3-3-----|
F chord hammer-on:
E|--1-1-----|
B|--1-1-----|
G|--0h2-----|
D|--3-3-----|
A|--3-3-----|
E|--1-1-----|
F chord pull-off:
E|--1-1-----|
B|--1-1-----|
G|--2p0-----|
D|--3-3-----|
A|--3-3-----|
E|--1-1-----|
I tried to get the chord placements right with the lyrics, but they might be off a bit,
you know how it goes...
[Intro]
C/G F
[Verse]
C/G F
Well I've been here before, I've sat on the floor, in a grey grey room,
C/G F
Where I stay in all day, I don't eat, but I play, with this grey grey food,
C/G F
Desole, If someone is prayin', then I might break out,
C/G F
Desole, Even if I scream, I can't scream that loud,
Em F Em F Em F
So I'm all alone again, crawling back home again, just stuck by the phone again
(Right around 1:28 he sneaks in a G note on the third fret, first string)
[Verse 2]
C/G F
Yeah, well I've been here before, sat on a floor, in a grey grey mood,
G/C F
Where I stay up all night, And all that I write, is a grey grey tune,
C/G F
So pray for me child, Just for a while, And I might break out yeah,
C/G F
Pray for me child, even a smile, would do for now,
[Crank up the speakers because Lisa kicks in here – go Lisa!]
Em F Em F Em F
So I'm all alone again, crawling back home again, just stuck by the phone again
[Bridge]
G F
Have I still got you to be my open door,
G F
Have I still got you to be my sandy shore,
G F
Have I still got you to cross my bridge in this storm,
G F
Have I still got you to keep me warm,
C/G F
Coz if I squeeze my grape, And I drink my wine yeah,
C/G F
Coz if I squeeze my grape, And I drink my wine yeah,
C/G
Yeah, Oh coz nothing is lost, This is frozen in frost,
F
And it's opening time, And there's no-one in line,
G F
But I've still got me to be your open door,
G F
I've still got me to be your sandy shore,
G F
I've still got me to cross your bridge in this storm,
G F
And I've still got me to keep you warm,
[Outro]
C/G F
Warmer than warm yeah, Warmer than warm yeah,
C/G F
Warmer than warm yeah, Warmer than warm yeah
