El Capitan Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[D][F#m][D][G][D][F#m]
[Bm][G]

[Verse 1]
By the [A]harbour[F#m]
[A]I h[D]arbour the strangest m[Bm]emories,[G]
Over land I could [A]ever be,
[D]Stranded [F#m]in nos[Bm]talgia,[G]
So tonight [A]I'll try harder,
But it's [D]hard to fix this [Bm]floodlight [G]on me,
In [A]a cast that's taken [D]to places,[A]
[F#m]I'm un[Bm]sure[G] of where I want to be,

[Verse 2]
[D]Stand up,
[F#m]Stand up,
And [Bm]stand down,
I'll [G]climb El Capitan,
[D]And jump off[F#m] to ch[D]eer[A]s
[Bm]from the c[G]rowd,

[Verse 3]
[D]Stand up,
Stand up[F#m],
And [Bm]stand down,
And I [G]hope you take your cam[D]era,
[F#m]To photograph my [A]tears[Bm]
as they hit [G]the ground,

[Verse 4]
[A]No one [Bm]even [A]listens,
[D]The same way that [Bm]no one
ever [G]laughs,
I'm taking [A]the car out of the snow,
[D]I'm wondering[F#m] where[Bm]
the summer went [G]to,
Circled by [A]your secrets,
I'm hoping [D]they don't include [Bm]me,
[G]
At least I'm in good [A]company,
Be[D]cause there's [Bm]no
one else [G]around,

[Verse 5]
Except me,
[D]Stand up,
Stand up[F#m],
And [Bm]stand down,
I'll [G]climb El Capitan,
[D]Jus[F#m]t to watch [D]the world[A] slo[Bm]w down,[G]

[Verse 6]
[D]Stand up,
Stand up,
An[A]d stand [Bm]down,
And I [G]hope you take your cam[D]era,
Si[F#m]lence makes [D]the [Bm]loudest [G]tap,

[Verse 7]
It seems [Bm]far too easy to
[A]say the same things,
I'll [G]choose my own way
to use my life up,
[Bm]Finally found a new [A]way,
Say [G]the same things,
In [D]ima[G]ginary [F#m]ways,[Bm]
I'll [A]use my [F#m]life u[G]p,

[Interlude 1]
[D][F#m][Bm]
[G][D][F#m][Bm]

[Verse 8]
[G]You were looking at pic
[D]tures in the distance,
[F#m]Hoping to see[Bm] the fu
[G]ture in your pic[D]tures,
Of the dis[F#m]tance hoping [Bm]to see,
The fu[G]ture looking at [D]pictures
in the dis[F#m]tance,
Hoping [Bm]to see the fu[G]ture
through your pic[D]tures,
[A]Of [Bm]the dista[G]nc[A]e,[D][F#m]
[A]Hop[Bm] ing[G][D][F#m]
[A]to[Bm][G][D]
[A]see[Bm],
The fu[G]ture in your pic[D]tures
of [F#m]the di[Bm]stance

[Outro 1]
