Dsus2

DThis is the calendaAr

DThese are the daEm11tes

DYou know you'll bAe, yDou won't know what you'll sEm11ee

DThe routes mightA change Dso all that remainsEm11

DIs the pull from Aplace to placeD

DWe left our hoAmes in Bmthe spring sunshinDe

DThings came alivAe when I kBmnew they Dweren't mine

DFalling in lAine didn'Bmt matter at alDl

DWe knew we'd goA when we eBmach heard the cDall

DThis is the calendaAr

DThese are the daEm11tes

DYou know you'll bAe, yDou won't know what you'll sEm11ee

DThe routes mightA change Dso all that remainsEm11

DIs the pull from Aplace to placeD

DThe pylons found fAault lines toBm run through the hDeart

DThe heart of the lAand beat with Bmodd fits and sDtarts

DSo they ran round the olAdest and gBmrey of the Dhills

DSo as to let the old dAie without Bmpower or Dpills

DThis is the calendaAr

DThese are the daEm11tes

DYou know you'll bAe, yDou won't know what you'll sEm11ee

DThe routes mightA change Dso all that remainsEm11

DIs the pull from Aplace to placeD

DDublin to CorkA thoughBm you never heard tDold

DThere's a line of good Amen withBm eyes wet and bDold

DWhere they weep for theA crows bearingBm twigs for the Dnest

DChanging the sAhape of the Bmtrees they loved bDest

DThis is the calendaAr

DThese are the daEm11tes

DYou know you'll bAe, yDou won't know what you'll sEm11ee

DThe routes mightA change Dso all that remainsEm11

DIs the pull from Aplace to placeD

DThe ghost of O'ADonahue scaBmred not theD lad

DWho in desert reAspect lost the Bmsmile he borne gDlad

DSat quite chief and fAolorn and piBmtched with the sDpectre

DEscaped all exhAaustions and pBmrayers from the Drector

BmAnd with Dglancing devout pulEm11led a frown from his sacDk

BmWeighed with loaves from the Doven and aEm11le from the racAk

DThis is the calendaAr

CI met JFane in SAmeptember's Fthrow

CJanuary's Fgrass, we let Ameach other Fgo

GI met HFelen on AmMarch's Fback

GShe took my cFoat and she Cstole my hDmat

AmI met you wGhen the wCeather got Ffine

AmYou said 'I've got yoGurs if yoCu've got mineF'

And the Cworst and Fbest of Call we Fknew

StayAmed out to Frust in the GmorFning dCew

CDidn't take lFong to sAming our lovFe

CWas a harvest Ffeast, was a Amhand to gFlove

GWhen winter cFame you couldn't Amstand to Fsit

GYou just the Fsame never bCurnt but Dmlit

AmWith a world at wGar and my tChoughts on Fyou

I Amdidn't care to Gfall, there wasn'tC much toF do

And the wCorst and bFest of Call we kFnew

SAmtayed out to Frust in the GmornFing Cdew

CChurlish MFay when the Amyear was faFir

CGone full cFircle when tAmhings went Fsquare

GAte my Fmeal an un-Amnoble Fbeast

GLeft me to paFy not a Cmovable feDmast

AmLook I got Gnothing, Cdunno whereF I am

Got a fiAmstful of quGestions, not an aCnswer to hFand

And the wCorst and bFest of Call we kFnew

SAmtayed out to Frust in the GmornFing Amdew

AmMorC/BningC dew

With a Gblow me Fdown the Amroad, dead in the Fwood

CFurther from yFou now, then the Amroots from Fthe leaves

CDrunk on the wFood, never sAmeen any tFrees

GMy ore's out the wFater and the Amlake that I'm Fsailing

Is your Gdear father's dFaughter and it's Ccold and I'm aDmiling

AmAre you drowning me Gslowly, was the Cschool meant to Fteach

Time Unremembered

Key: CMedium

Well it's tCime unremGembered since the nFameless lCeft

What a wCake trails those Geyes of the stCorm G C

And I kCnow you had some trGouble with your hFeart berCeft

It?s hCard to keep a lGonely heart wCarm G C

TGhey don?t carry coals North, you wFon?t have any help

There?s a mGeasure of time in your drFink

Can?t trGust that in the next one, you won?t be bFack on the same shelf

So pitch tGime to do or die, to float or sFink

And Amwe live in the steel yard on rFeels of information

And we lAmove along the white lines in the mFiddle of the road

And our cAmare lies in the telegraph poles and the tFaxi to the station

And you kAmnow the one that died became some Felemental code

And wChat was the sGong that was plFaying

in the cCafé whGen we hFeard?

Wasn?t Gone of the greats, but it rang thrFough me for a moment

SComething about a mGurder, a brCood, a flGeet, a flock of bCirds

Now the sphCeres of your lGoving are cFast adrCift

To the shCores of anGother lCand G C

And the pCackers and the mGovers haven?t tFime to lCift

Any mCore than what lGies to hCand G C

Now the bGorder of reality is the most crFowded any place

Where a mGyth can be a public drFeam

To the thrGoes of this existence, you?ll tFake your lovely?s face

As the lGight slips out of every sFeam

As the kAmey turns, we burn brightly, an Feffervescent lover

In a lAmast kiss with a dew drop, as the sFun begins to fall

And in dAmarkness please tread lightly, oh sFee what you discover

In the fAmeeling, oh, the feeling of the Felemental call

And whCat was the sGong that was plFaying

in the cCafé whGen we hFeard?

Wasn?t Gone of the greats, but it rang thrFough me for a moment

SComething about a mGurder, a brCood, a flGeet, a flock of bCirds

Gypsy Hymn

Key: FMedium

FEmGC

The Cferry man Ambrought me with Cmind open, Amdreaming,

we Fcut the dEmepths with lGaughtCer.

StayCed with my Amyouth that God's Ctooth cut when wAmeaning,

Fnow and Gever aFfter.

The Fwill of the void is to shape and name forms...

our Amdance was Cnever Amdone, Cthen.

I rFemember you well from before you were born,

my Amchance was Cnever Amwon, Cthen.

F (2 bars)

FI burned the sports pages,

as FI already knew the score.

Put Cfaith Fin the AmfireF,

forCeveFr and Amever Fmore.

Your cColours of aAmutumn,

you're Cburnished with gAmold there,

and Fstanding Emin the GriveCr.

The cCircle of trAmees and

the fCull wish we Amtold there,

Ftruthful Gas a Fprison.

I Flooked at the mystery and all she evoked,

my Ampatron sCaint stood nAmear hCer.

But the Fmystery walked and the mystery spoke,

my sAmaint said, "Cnever Amfear Cher".

F (2 bars)

Now FMab is my queen, oh,

and Mab is my chief.

CMab Fis my Amroot Fnow,

my Cstrong Ftrunk and Ambranch to the Fleaf.

The Ccircle remains and sAmtill from its past;

now Fwaiting, now sGinging, now Fflying half-Gmast.

She Cis and she's whole, I'll Amknow love again.

I'll Fknow my song Gwell, each Fdying rGefrain.

Each Ccadence and twist, well-obAmserved in its harmony.

FSilence come cGlean,

pull sFtillness for our Amlady.

AmGypsy hymnC sing we slow,

and tFenderly Gbear me on yFour west wind Gblow... your

and Fsing me aGgain befFore you got to gAmo.

FSing me aGgain beforeF you got to go.C

Hard Road

Key: DmMedium

DmHard road under the Fnight sky

Keep on Ctravelling, fare thee Dmwell my love

DmHard road under the Fnight sky

Keep on Ctravelling, fare thee Dmwell

DmThe sea came in and washed me out

DmThe way was carved in ice

CThe tokens of a buried past

FThe shavings of a Cheavy life

DmThe wind blows each and every way

DmIt's not for me, my heart, to steer

CI cast up what I have each day

FThe river flows the Cwhole long year

DmHard road under the Fnight sky

Keep on Ctravelling, fare thee Dmwell my love

DmHard road under the Fnight sky

Keep on Ctravelling, fare thee Dmwell

DmThe fires moved my heart so far

DmNow colours can't be seen

CThe distant call of far-off stars

FHaunting o'er what Cmight have been

DmAnd all, an ending was begun

DmCome with me 'cross the care-trod floor

CCome with me to the holy song

FAnd with time's passing, Cto the core

DmHard road under the Fnight sky

Keep on Ctravelling, fare thee Dmwell my love

DmHard road under the Fnight sky

Keep on Ctravelling, fare thee Dmwell

DmShe knows how and she knows when

FShe's born to die and Clive and again

DmShe goes from moor to build a nest

FShe knows the dance that Cburns her best

DmFrom the ashes, fair to share

FThe purest sounds to Cleaden heads

DmSung from her best and bends the old trees

FWingèd wind songs Csung so holy

DmHard road under the Fnight sky

Keep on Ctravelling, fare thee Dmwell my love

DmHard road under the Fnight sky

Keep on Ctravelling, fare thee Dmwell my love

DmHard road under the Fnight sky

Keep on Ctravelling, fare thee Dmwell my love

DmHard road under the Fnight sky

Keep on Ctravelling, fare thee Dmwell my love

DmHard road under the Fnight sky

Keep on Ctravelling, fare thee Dmwell my love

DmHard road under the Fnight sky

Keep on Ctravelling, fare thee Dmwell my love

Key: GCapo 4Medium

Am7

Standard Tuning //

The hammer on's in this song go as follows:

GCD

With a strumming pattern of, UP DOWN UP, MUTE, (with the hammer on on the 'DOWN' strum)

Repeat this in the verses.

A simpler strum in the Chorus of which you'll just have to work out but with no hammer on's.

GThe day we met my life was changed

CI always heard that love was strange and Gpainful

Dpainful

GOne night you slept upon your side

CTangled in white you looked just like an Gangel

Dangel

So CwhGy did you Dfly Emaway

I've beeCn dying a littlGe death since thaDt verEmy day

I used to ClaugGh when you Dtold Emme

You must Cforget and Gforgive to be Cfree

GDown by the water dressed in black

CI swore revenge to get you back Ghateful

Dhateful

GI made my camp upon the hill

CDrank whisky from the secret still Gblameful

Dblameful

So CwhGy did you Dfly Emaway

i've beeCn dying a littlGe death since thaDt verEmy day

i used to ClaugGh when you Dtold Emme

you must Cforget and Gforgive to be Cfree G

And I Gnever Dcould aA7dmit

the Gpart I Dhad in A7it

So Gthis is Dwhat I A7get my Am7friend

GDrunk in a field with scarlet snow

CI reconciled with your ghost in GApril

DIn April

GI stood before the hypocrite

CThere in the mirror brightly lit Gshameful

Dshameful

Now I know CwhGy you Dran Emaway

And I've beeCn dying a littlGe death since thaDt verEmy day

I used to ClaugGh when you Dtold Emme

you must Cforget and Gforgive

You must Cforgive just to live

you must Emforget and Cforgive to be free G

Thank you, hope you found this informative! I know there isn't even any lyrics up for this song

at the moment as it's fairly new! <3 Johnny <3

Bottom Of The Sea Blues

Key: CCapo 4Medium

CMy age is my condition,

Gmy love is my intentF.

AmI bathed time with ageless loveF

Emor forget what came and wentG

Gfor a world full of contentEm.

CTheres a space in the heaveFns,

theres aEm hole in my heart.G

CTheres a lack of fine diniFng gone to woEmrk on my heart. G

AmTheres a plague for the fullness,F

Emtheres an empty retGreat,

Cand the restaurant bFuffet isn?t Emall I can eatG.

My age is my condition,

my love is my intent.

I bathed time with ageless love

or forget what came and went

for a world full of content.

Onward to get up,

too quick to get down.

Will love, food, and money

do all the trade in this town?

With eyes looking hollow

and my bones are still white,

I haven?t the patience to stay out tonight

My age is my condition,

my love is my intent.

I bathed time with ageless love

or forget what came and went

for a world full of content.

Stuck with thoughts of the buttercups

and the bees they do know.

They suck on the yellow as nature is told.

I suck on the colors that I find in the sea,

the blues and the greens they don?t bother me.

My age is my condition,

my love is my intent.

I bathed time with ageless love

or forget what came and went

for a world full of content.

Not 100% sure of this part, feel free to correct me

CMy soul is in the trees

GIts in the sap that fills the wood

FIts in the rings that tell the rain

AmIts in the smoke that marks the day

FIts in the fire in my heart

EmIts in the embers in the soot

FIts in the place I put the ashes

CIts in the soil it?s in the grass

GIts in the miles of all the herd

CIts in the beetles and the birds

GIts in the feathers that I found one morning lFying on the ground

CIts hallelujah and oh

CIts where I?ve been and where I go

DmIts in the people that I meet

AmIts feeling silent at their feet

FIts having the need to something my pride

FIt opens doors

My age is my condition,

my love is my intent.

I bathed time with ageless love

or forget what came and went

for a world full of content.

GColors, they Fdon?t swallow meC.

DmColors, the nAmight time set me freFe.
