New York Blind Pilot
Capo 2nd Fret. This version has the actual lyrics, I checked.
You'll notice on this lead-sheet that a chord will be placed above a word either at the
start or
end of the word. If it's at the beginning, you change to that chord as you start the
word. If it's at the end of
the word, you'd change to that chord after you've said the word. That's how he sings it
at least.
I made this version because the other one only has C-G-Am and the C-G-F-Am works much
better with the how his
voice sounds in the song, which I'm assuming most of you will be basing your playing off
of or trying to match.
Listen to the song for how to strum.
[C]I hear the train all night
[G]Sound of it's wind blowing [F]throug[G]h our subtle live[C]s
[C]And I have a job to d[G]o walking these cars
Walking [Am]all this slee[G]p to get to yo[C]u
But I don't [Am]feel you stir [C]beside me
And you're not [Am]in my morning [G]hours
[C]Some ties are made to break
[G]Some stalks grow high and green to [F]rot awa[G]y
And feel the weigh[C]t
[C]And these lines tell a truth
[G]These city veins answer [Am]all we d[G]o[C]
So could you [Am]keep me in the [C]pulses
Could you [Am]keep me in the [G]sound
[C]I got wise and I got ol[G]d
Not once, not once did I [F]fal[G]l
So don't you [C]now
[C]Maybe you bet on me
[G]While we were still young [F]enough to kno[G]w
What to believ[C]e
[C]For every year you took
[G]For every soft breath or [F]loving loo[G]k
Believe [C]me
And don't [Am]keep me like you [C]have me
And don't [Am]kiss me like you [G]don't
[C]I got wise and I got ol[G]d
Not once, not once did I [F]fal[G]l
So don't you [C]now
[C]Some land holds a home
[G]Some of my years only [F]hol[G]d me to roa[C]m
[C]But I tell myself it's true
[G]You see a home you see a [F]ma[G]n
You see it to[C]o
And I say[Am] [C]
