Snow Patrol

              Chasing Cars        Eyes Open (2006)

 

 

        Verse 1: (slow / picking)

        A             E             D          A

        We'll do it all,   everything,   on our own.

        A           E            D             A

        We don't need,    anything,    or anyone.

 

       

        Middle 8: (medium / picking)

                 A               E

        If I lay here, if I just lay here

                      D                                  A

        Would you lie with me, and just forget the world.

 

       

        Verse 2: (slow / picking)

        A                   E              D            A

        I don't quite know,    how to say,   how I feel

        A                  E              D               A

        Those three words,   I said too much,   but not enough.

 

       

        Chorus: (medium / chords)

                  A               E                       D                                A

         If I lay here, if I just lay here, would you lie with me, and just forget the world.

                           A                   E                  D                             A

         Forget what we're told, before we get too old, show me a garden that's bursting into life.

 

       

        Verse 3:  (slow / picking)

        A              E               D                   A

        Let's waste time,  chasing cars,   around our heads.

        A               E              D               A

        I need your grace,  to remind me, to find my own.

 

 

        Chorus:  (medium / chords)

 

       

        Bridge: (medium / chords)

        A                         E

        All that I am, all that I ever was

                        D                               A

        Is here in your perfect eyes, they're all I can see

                     A                     E

        I don't know where, confused about how as well

                             D                                     A

        just know that these things will never change for us at all.

 

       

        Middle 8:  (slow / picking)

                 A               E

        If I lay here, if I just lay here

                      D                                A

        Would you lie with me, and just forget the world.
