Capo 4
************************************
Some advice: During the verses, when you play G and go to C you only add your index finger to the first fret
of the B string, you don't need to play the full chord as it's only a transmission.
In the chorus and bridge you play the full C).
D chord: The way she plays D is by doing the same shape of the regular C chord
but playing it from the third fret, if you find it hard you can just play a regular D but this one sounds
better and is the original way she plays it.
Strumming: It's basically alternating strumming down the first 3 low strings with your thumb and always
plucking ONLY the B string with your middle finger.
Verse 1
[G]
Dear
[C] [Em]
Do you hear what I hear?
[G] [C] [Em]
The crackle, of fear in the atmosphere
[G] [C] [Em]
Mmmmm...mmm...mmmmm
[G]
Love
[C] [Em]
Keep your eyes on the road
[G] [C] [Em]
‘Cause when I stare all I see is two foggy windows to a lost soul
Chorus
[C] [Em]
And maybe, maybe it’s all my fault
[C]
That it’s so quiet
[G]
On the drive home
Verse 2
[G] [C] [Em]
Babe, can I build my home in your mind?
[G] [C] [Em]
A disheveled maze constellated and intertwined
Chorus
[C] [Em]
But somehow, it’s my favorite kind
[C]
And my favorite view
[G]
When it untangles in the moonlight
Verse 3
[G] [C] [Em]
Darlin’, we’re getting older
[G] [C] [Em]
In less than 8 months you’ll wash tear stains off of your shoulder
[C]
And drenched in alcohol and conceit
[C]
The cold-blooded bodies quick on their feet
[Em]
Will tell you how to earn your stripes
Chorus
[C]
And you’ll be listening while
[C]
I sit here with glistening eyes
[C]
As the stripes on my back chip and dry
[C] [D]
You won’t be listening to my cries
Anymore
[G] [C] [Em]
Woooooh~ woooooh~
Bridge
[D] [C]
And we’ll be two pieces of driftwood
[D] [C]
Floating in a sea of missed calls and excuses
[D]
And your home will change into
[C]
Four walls and a mini fridge
[D] [C]
Instead of four limbs and lips to kiss
Chorus
[C] [G] [Em] [D]
But for now, the night is young
[D] [D]
And you are here and snow patrol just came on the radio
[C] [G] [C]
So darling, let’s take
[C] [G] [C] [D]
Darling, let’s take the long way home
[G] [C] [Em]
Woooh, Oooh
[G] [C] [Em]
Ooooh, Oooh
[G] [C] [Em]
Love, keep your eyes on the road
