Just the basics folks.....Jazz it up however you like, but this will get you started.
Capo IV
All chords shapes are relative to the capo
[Intro]
C / G / Am x2
[Verse]
C G
I spark a match and watch the candle burn
Am
The wick runs out and then love takes its turn
C G
On fallen angels and broken sounds
Am
We will last past the final round
C G
It took a while for you to find me
Am
But I was hiding in the lime tree
C G
Above the city in the rain cloud
Am
I poked a hole and watched it drain out
[Verse]
C G
Parallel to the city streets
Am
Our broken crowns beneath our feet
C G
But as we walk across the diamonds
Am
We know that love is always shining
C G
So save me love save me all the time
Am
I’ll wash you down with a simple sip of wine
C G
And toast my glass to all my loved ones
Am
To let them know that the stars well they still shine
[Chorus]
C G
It took a while for you to find me
Am
But I was hiding in the lime tree
C G
Above the city in the rain cloud
Am
I poked a hole and watched it drain out
(Repeat Chorus until the end)
