V1: D,D,D,D, G
E – A
Swim on the roof
Eat a lot of food
Promises in elevators
_ 10th floor and elevated

V2: D,D,D,D, G
E – A
It rains in the park
Feed the birds, whole flock
Squirrels chase us helter skelter
To the house we’re taking shelter

Pre: A, G, D, A, Em, D
B, A, E, E, B, F#m, E
Whenever I’m with you I have a good time

Chorus: D, F#m, C, A D
E, G#m, D, B, E, G#m, D, B, E
You have a way of making things right
You take a paintbrush to the sky and change the colours
So that I, can see the light
Your aura shines with magical design
You’re always glowing bright

V3: D,D,D,D, G
E – A
Chess with a friend
People came and went
Dashing to the train to get home
By the fire we could write a song

Pre

Chorus

Bridge: Bm F#m G D, Bm, F#m, Em, A
C#m, G#m, A, E, C#m, G#m, F#, B
When the world is blue and I am feeling down
I can come to you, to turn my feelings round

  1. Really like this. The chorus complements the verses very well, even though they are so different. I like the understated dynamism. Maybe stronger instruments could carry the verses along.

  2. If this is given the same instrumentation as Once In A Lifetime it’s another very radio friendly track. Very catchy. Tune sticks in your head.

  3. A great song, with many different genre possibilities. It says guitar, bass and percussion accompaniment to me, but I can also hear a trumpet solo playing a verse and chorus in my head.

  4. Love the chorus and very strong lyrically too. I’d go with you on electric guitar on this, maybe a telecaster and see what happens.
