California Silverstein
This is How the Wind Shifts
Tuning: Half-Step Down
Intro:
[G]Feel it, the calm after the s[Em]torm.
As still as I can [D]be.
I'm finally all a[C]lone until I fall asleep...
[Em--C] Did I escape or am I c[Em--C]aptured?
Trapped in a cage of rear view [D]mirror eyes.
[C]Triangles that [D]look like faces.
Verse 1:
[Em] This is what I get
[C-Em] for my revenge.
A [D]hidden [C]microphone,
[D]an amber alert implanted...
[Em]...under my skin.
[C-Em] It's just in my head[(D)] but
[C] it takes me over.
It [D]makes me forget why I'm [Em]on my way.
These four [G]years feel like a hundred.
Chorus:
[Em]West-bound, driving all a[C]lone to make sure that you [D]know.
I've been running s[C]cared without you.
I [D]drove all night to [Em]tell you.
In dreams I've seen your [C]face with another in my [D]place.
I know it was a[C---D]nother life but I never could for[Em--C]get you.
Em--C----D
I never could forget you.
Verse 2:
[Em] We set it up (we [C]set it [Em]up)
like a house of cards [D]in a [C]hurricane.
We [D]didn't think it would ever make sense.
[Em] He set us up (he [C]set you [Em]up),
he knew just where to [D]plant it.
[C] It knocked me over,
it [D]made me forget how I [Em]fell in love.
How [G]much I really cared.
Chorus:
[Em]West-bound, driving all a[C]lone to make sure that you [D]know.
I've been running s[C]cared without you.
I [D]drove all night to [Em]tell you.
In dreams I've seen your [C]face with another in my [D]place.
C---D [Ad Lib: Em-D-C-D]
I know it was another life but I never could forget you.
I never could forget you.
Bridge:
[Em]You'll see me t[D]here
like a fa[C]miliar stranger
s[D]tanding on the street.
[Em] I'll say a [D]prayer,
I'll intro[C]duce myself
like it's the [D]first time we'd ever meet.
[Em] In Cali[G]fornia,
I'd [Am]learn that sometimes you [C]have to [D]run a[Em]way.
In Cali[G]fornia,
I'd [Am]find myself a[C--D]gain.
Chorus:
[Em]West-bound, driving all a[C]lone to make sure that you [D]know.
I've been running s[C]cared without you.
I [D]drove all night to [Em]tell you.
In dreams I've seen your [C]face with another in my [D]place.
I know it was a[C]nother life but I [D]never could fo[Em]rget you...
