In detail:




When the summer wind races
Through my thoughts
Where there was a cross
On the mountain bearing on us
Oh I wonder now
who you might think of
Would you be the same?
Would you say if you were lost?
Oh are you lost, when I know
Someone, someone is there
Shadows and stares behind me
Someone, calling your name
Someone is bound to find me
Oh, if someone is there
Give me your answer kindly
Oh, shadows and stares
If you are lost come find me

Now every day
Red squares on their shirtsleeves
On every corner, red maple leaves
This is how Im remembering
Listen for your voice in the crowds, in the streets
I wonder now
What you might think of the policemen
Marching past your ghost in the park
I cant stop laughing now that

Shadows and stares behind me
Someone, calling your name
Someone is bound to find me
Oh, if someone is there
Give me your answer kindly
Oh, shadows and stares
If you are lost come find me

If it rains – Basia Bulat

—————————————————————————–

This is the first thing I sumbit, please don’t be so harsh on me.

Tuning:Standard

CAPO 1

I don’t mind if it rains
I don’t mind if it rains
If I leave my friends where I found them
Could I make my soul a mountain
Could I tell them not to worry if it rains

( Tab from: http://www.guitartabs.cc/tabs/b/basia_bulat/if_it_rains_crd.html )
The road is dry up ahead
But the sun might burn me to death
Could the love I had be all grown out
Well the only way to find out
Is to hold them where the sun can’t dry them out

If I never ask for more
Still they say they are sure
Everyone has said those words
Even I’ve heard them before
If it’s easier just to run
I’m as hurried as anyone
But somehow you know
When the wind’s blowing colder
They’ll turn around slower and say to you

I don’t mind if it rains
I don’t mind if it rains
You can leave your friends where you found them
For your soul is still a mountain
You can tell them not to worry if it rains

Intro


Verse 1

Little one you wanted a sound
You wanted to hold onto another
Soon, before you can tell
You will be swallowed up into
Cause I am aware we’ve been waiting here
Where we’ve been for years

Verse 2

You will wander around
Alone in the house we both abandoned
To measure our hopes with our hearts
Hearts with our hands we’ve taught them language
Yeah, we’ve been waiting here
Where we’ve been for years

Chorus

I know you’ll be back again
But I am alone till then
No one can understand
I’ve done a foolish thing
And carry a need to remind you of the
Terrible state I’m in, till you come home

Verse 3 (no chords played)

Little one you wanted a sound
You wanted to hold onto another
Soon, before you can tell
You will be singing out loud and you’ll reach for the wall

Chorus

And I know you’ll be back again
But I am alone till then
No one can understand, I’ve done a foolish thing
And carry a need to remind you of the
Terrible state I’m in, till you come home
Till you come home

Basia Bulat – Snakes and Ladders

These mirrors you’ve broken are your cry for art
Salt and pepper shakers over your shoulders
Cross your heart
Don’t you know it’s bad luck
To stay in one place for too long?
You’ve been listening to the voices in your head
Helpless when they go

So we play a game of snakes and ladders
Gambled our mistakes
Didn’t know what could come after
Threw away the cards
Who thinks it could matter?
Oh, who believes in fate, anyway?

( Tab from: https://www.guitartabs.cc/tabs/b/basia_bulat/snakes_and_ladders_crd.html )
When only you could be the one
To win out over me
When it isn’t just a game
It’s the way we come undone
What a perfect accident
Oh, we danced around them all
Like we didn’t even notice
ah oh oh oh ohh I love the way we come undone

Thought I saw something hidin’ in the yard
But it was bad weather to keep a watch out in the dark
You know, all this time I’ve been playing for your heart
But I never let it on
I’ll have to watch you play the part

So we play a game of snakes and ladders
Gambled our mistakes
Didn’t know what could come after
Threw away the cards
Who thinks it could matter?
Oh, who believes in fate, anyway?

When only you could be the one
To win out over me
When it isn’t just a game
It’s the way we come undone
What a perfect accident
Oh, we danced around them all
Like we didn’t even notice
ah oh oh oh ohh I love the way we come undone

Impossible to keep the vision against all of me

When I took myself far and away from everyone that I knew

if you’re looking for the moon

is it ever when it’s new

when the iron is cold and the binding holds fast onto you

when I listen for the footsteps that nearly knock me down in the room

the teller is gone, you say, but how else can you really see

I’ll find it by a mile

in a heartbeat you’ll be free and you will

Run, run, run, run, run, run, run, run, run

Run, run, run, run, run, run, run, run, run

Run, run, run, run, run, run, run, run, run

keep running back to me
( Tab from: http://www.guitartabs.cc/tabs/b/basia_bulat/run_crd.html )
Oh the both of our heads you’ve been searching to find a way through

but there’s nothing that I want more than a reason to be following you

when you bring up the matches just remember that I own them all too

if a lie won’t go too deep

in a heartbeat you’ll be free and you will

Run, run, run, run, run, run, run, run, run

Run, run, run, run, run, run, run, run, run

Run, run, run, run, run, run, run, run, run

keep running back to me

Run, run, run, run, run, run, run, run, run

Run, run, run, run, run, run, run, run, run

Run, run, run, run, run, run, run, run, run

keep running back to me

keep running back to me, to me, to me

Intro: G
( Tab from: http://www.guitartabs.cc/tabs/b/basia_bulat/oh_my_darling_crd_ver_2.html )
There are two things I will carry in my pockets at the end
oh, my darling,
you are one of them
the way you look when you have a story to begin,
oh, my darling,
that’s the other half

and I will never lose them,
no i’ll never never show them like a prize

I will keep them out of sight
and I will never give them up to any silly
promise or a lie,
C G (strumming changes-listen to song)
they are mine until I die, until I die

Outro: G Em C

A sorry suit, no substitute, I’ve never been so tired

I’ve tried before, I wanted more, no matter what you had

If only you, you you you. You you you would have the heart to take it back

If only you, you you you. You you you would ever have the heart to ask.

And now you’ve said, too many times, that trouble’s walking by.

I’ve met them once or twice before, but never so unkind.

I’ll stand aside, I’ll walk behind, no matter what you had

If only you, you you you. You you you would have the heart to take it back
( Tab from: http://www.guitartabs.cc/tabs/b/basia_bulat/if_only_you_crd.html )
If only you, you you you. You you you would ever have the mind to ask.

No, don’t I know. that I’ve been this way before.

I’d find my way out of any game of yours.

You can’t deny when it’s me you’re thinking of

And I’ll play along just to give it up.

So now I know I’ve said hello to Jekyll and to Hyde

The trouble is I still can’t say who I want by my side

Truth be told I love them both, and I’m no better half.

If only you, you you you. You you you would have the heart to take it back

If only you, you you you. You you you would ever have the heart to ask.

There is no one who will take me by that shore

Close to the smoke, far from the fire of your harbour.

But if I am awake this time I’ll know

All over your eyes, a storm is rolling over, rolling over, rolling over

Oh you can take away the divine my dear

And comb your hair

And I won’t mind at all.

Even when the thought’s behind

I came just to remind you

I love you so.

There is no one who will take me by that shore
But the waves rushing down
The waves rushing down on your shoulders.
And if I am awake this time I’ll know
All over your eyes, a storm is nearly over
Nearly over

And you can take away the divine my dear
And comb your hair
And I won’t mind at all.
Even when the thought’s behind
I came just to remind you
I love you so
I love you so
I love you so.

Intro C Am G F (2)

Once more for the dollhouse

Will we ever paint the walls

Once more for the mountains

May we find them at our door

Your dreams are so quiet

Don’t you need them anymore

Someday we’ll be lions

And we’ll sing out to them all

[(Am] [Fm)] [(C] [Fm)]
One day when I’m older

Will I find out where you’ve gone

We swore to no strangers

Now they’ve crowded up our hearts

So long to the wreckage

I won’t hide it if it’s wrong

Someday we’ll be lions

We’ll be dancing as before

[(Am] [Fm)] [(C] [Fm)]
Your dreams are so quiet

Don’t you need me anymore

Someday we’ll be lions

We’ll be singing to them all

Be true I’ll be gone
You’re only fool in your sound
Open in and out
You are holding out

But there is no lie
That you can make and tear it apart
Your whole confession made in the dark
Now every hope of change of heart
You’re running away but the shadow is yours

Out there on the steps
Monday I know they will be tried
Notice such a lie
Now even you might realize

That there is no lie
That you can live and tear it apart
Your whole confession made in the dark

Now every hope of change of heart

Cm Gm————

You’re running away but the shadow is yours … yours

Monday when it finds you take it too hard
You can’t run away when you know that the

Tall tall shadow
Tall tall shadow
Tall tall shadow
Tall tall shadow

is yours

But there is no lie
That you can make and tear it apart
Your whole confession made in the dark
Now every hope of change of heart

Cm Gm————-

You’re running away but the shadow is yours… yours

Monday when it finds you take it too hard
You can’t run away when you know that the

Tall tall shadow
Tall tall shadow
Tall tall shadow
Tall tall shadow
Tall tall shadow
Tall tall shadow
Tall tall shadow
Tall tall shadow

is yours

You can’t run away when the shadow is yours

You can’t run away when the shadow is yours

You can’t run away no you can’t run away

The shadow is yours?
