Song Name: Melting Alone
Am C/G D7/F# Fmaj7
|:[ / / / / ][ / / / / ][ / / / / ][ / / / / ]:|
Am Am/G D7/F# Fmaj7
Tonight the lamplight swirls and glistens
Am Am/G D7/F# Fmaj7
Melting itself upon my face
Am Am/G D7/F# Fmaj7
I'm hanging my silhouette near the shoreline
Am Am/G D7/F# C/F
I'm swimming underneath in the noontime
Refrain:
C2 Am7
Will I ever know what's wrong with me?
C2 Am7
Will I ever know what's wrong with me?
C2 Am Fmaj7
Will I ever see your hand again in mine...
Tonight the rain is pelting rooftops
There is no fire to melt the cold
I'm straining to hear a human whisper
And I'm painting images on the soft stone
REFRAIN1
Refrain2:
G /F# C2/E Fmaj7 G /F# C2/E Fmaj7
Now I'm drinking alone amidst these figures of stone
G /F# C2/E Fmaj7 G /F# C2/E Fmaj7
I'll raise the glass once again, then lay my head on the
pillow
REFRAIN1 (2x)
REFRAIN2
G /F# C2/E Fmaj7 G /F# C2/E Fmaj7
