Idlewild – Nothing I Can Do About It (Guitar Solo)

C                             C
When you get older and that novelty goes

         F                      G
And all you can see is just a burned out candle

              C
Where there used to be flames

               C                F
There's only absence smoking away

G                 C
All that art was made to be made

     C                 F
And not to be kept by no one

              G
Not even the one who made it

      C                          C
It's full of the things that you said

                         F            G
And forgotten that you could still say

       G           G
Every time by time

                         Am           Em
I think I know what I'm talking about

             F
There are a million suns

              F
Not just the one you're sitting under. And there's

C                          F G
Nothing I can do about it

        C                        F G
There's nothing I can do or say

         C                        F G
There's nothing I can do about it

C
Even if I could

          F       G
I'd only walk away

C                            C
When you get older and that novelty goes

    F                    G          C
Of mixing up myths with music that uses hope

    C                  F  G
To keep within despair

         C                             C
You can make sure the bookshelves are alphabetical

F          G
Poetical, non political

C                C                       F   G
Over a glass of Ricard at the Grey Cat Cafe

       G
Every time by time

G                          Am          Em
  I think I know what I'm talking about

           F                        F
Taking a breath was the only thing certain

          F                  F
But even now that's not so certain and there's

C                         F G
Nothing I can do about it

         C                      F G
There's nothing I can do or say

          C                       F G
There's nothing I can do about it

C                                F  G
Even if I could I'd only walk away...

         C                         F G
There's nothing I can do about it

         C                      F G
There's nothing I can do or say

         C                       F G
There's nothing I can do about it

C
Even if I could

                 F  G
I'd only walk away

C                     F   G
     I'd only walk away
