Song of 27 Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[C]Though, I may be miles
[F]away from [Am]her[C]
With years that pass [G]without [F]a word[C]
I've never seen a [F]moon so [Am]high[C]
Her name hangs down [G]from there,
tonight
[F][C]

[Verse 2]
So, [G]put your [F]little hand [Am]away[C]
I've seen such [G]needy days [F]before[C]
On nights like this,
my [F]hope [Am]returns[C]
Though, I may [G]be miles away from her
[F]

[Verse 3]
[Am]
A locket just for [F]good luck
A pocket knife [C]for long nights
And a sleepy little [G]dreamer
With still, miles to go
[C][F]

[Verse 4]
27, take me [Am]home[C]
And pour that last year
[G]down my [F]throat[C]
The days [F]will fade and the nights
[Am]will burn[C]
Though, I may be miles [G]away

[Interlude 1]
from her
[F][Am][F][C][G]
[Am]

[Verse 5]
I [Am]see her in the d[F]oorway
Staring a hole through [C]it all
The first of many fits
And the [G]last one was, man,
the last one was
[C]

[Verse 6]
So check your lock and close
[F]your eye[Am] s[C]
When you wake up, [G]I'll be all [F]right[C]
Never tell [F]them where it [Am]hurts[C]
And keep your bul[G]let,
safe inside
[F]

[Verse 7]
[C]
The wind has wept and
[F]the sky [Am]is slurred[C]
But we slept through [G]the sunrise,
[F]too[C]
I'm dreaming [F]still of
who [G]you [Am]were[C]
Though, I may be miles [G]away from her
[F]
