Sun Kil Moon – Alesund (Guitar)

Am                C         
No this is not my guitar

                     Am
I’m bringing it to a friend

               C
And no I don’t sing

                 Am
I’m only humming along

C              F
Up here in the air

         C               F
I’m just mumbling at the clouds

C             F
Wanting to be known

        C               F       Am  C  Am  C  
While I pass the lonely hours

Am                   C
I came down from the room

                 Am
I saw you in the rain

                   C
Laughing with some people

                        Am
Hair dripping down your face

C                  F
Your calm hypnotic eyes

     C            F
Your Scandinavian glow

  C                F
I felt them like a flame

C                 F     Am C Am C
Candle in my cold bones

Am                  F
Tonight you were my muse

     C            F
As I belted and I strummed

C             F
Trying not to drown

       C          F      C  F  C  F  C
In the helicopter drone

Am               C
From the crowd I heard

                  Am
You sing a pretty line

                         C
Was it: “there's so much love -

             Am
That I wanna cry”

C                  F
I thought about it long

        C               F
Had you repeat it in my ear

   C                F
“I couldn't place a thought

        Am           C        Am  C  Am  C
Without you being so close”

Am                  C
Should’ve played it then

                      Am
From the intro to the end

                         C
When they offered me the stage

                     Am
At the bar we landed in

C                F
But I turned and walked

C                 F
Away from all the fun

    C             F
And back into the black

C                F    Am    C    F 
Seaside night of Alesund
