Counting Down The Years chords and lyrics - WHYTE HORSES

Lời & hợp âm

[Intro 1]
[D]

[Verse 1]
And so [D]another letter falls
A chime goes off again
A [G]thud upon the doormat, like a knife
Reads out the story of your [D]life
A view of every shade of grey
The buildings loom [G]above
[Em]No way is the on[G]ly way

[Verse 2]
White flags are blowing nearer
[A]I was busy doing nothing much
Not hurting anyone at [G]all
And then the big announcement here
That you were counting down the [D]years

[Interlude 1]
When will I wake up? Oh
[D][G][Em][G][D]

[Verse 3]
Too much of [D]anything's too much
It's not all sex and sea
[G]A sticky hand is working over[Em]time
[G]Trying to [Em]make[G] the perfect crime[D]
A golden spoon or destitute
The oldest tale of all
[G]Som[Em]eone los[G]es and[Em] some[G]one wins
And [Em]on and o[G]n forever

[Verse 4]
[A]I was hearing sounds from all around
Was almost back to being myself
[G]But then your booming
voice came loud
Dispelling all my efforts
[A]Sometimes it's a must to deviate
Some things are better left unsaid
[G]While I was ticking off my fears
There you were counting
down [D]the years
When will I wake up? [A]Oh[D]
[A][D]

[Interlude 2]
[G][Em][G][C#]

[Verse 5]
Don't [D]die yet
Don't die yet
Don't [G]die yet
Don't [A]die yet
Don't [D]die yet
Don't die yet
Don't [G]die yet
No, don't [A]die yet
[D]How do I get through this?
How do I get through this?
[G]How
[A]How
Don't [D]die yet
Don't die yet (Your eyes
are laughing)
Don't [G]die yet (They're laughing)
Don't die yet (Your eyes
[A]are [D]laughing)
[A]Don't [D]die yet
(They're laughing)
Don't die yet (Your eyes
are laughing)
Don't [G]die yet (They're laughing)
No, don't [A]die yet
[D]Don't die yet
Don't die yet
[G]Don't die yet
Don't die yet
[A]Don't [D]die yet
Don't die yet
Don't [G]die yet
No, don't [A]die yet
