Topic: SILVER TEARS

Silver Tears

Lava burns through her aching heart
Leaving a deep hole,
Crying, screaming for help
She lies there on her bed.

Weeping for what might have been
Remembering the past,
Looking through old photo’s
Burning what she has left.

Gathering her few belongings
Running, stumbling as she falls,
Silver tears run down her cheek
Sitting with nothing left.

A stranger walks by
A coat in his hand,
Picks her up and helps her
He will be her man.

Needing someone with her
Always being her dream,
Singing songs and dancing
Wearing things she’s never seen.

Leading now a good life
The past she’s left behind,
No more silver tears for her
With her husband by her side.

I can not think of any chords for this song so please help me?!?

love rhiannon xoxo

Re: SILVER TEARS

Hi rhiannon
Another heart felt set lyrics. I feel some connection with last song you posted?
For me the hard part is the lyrics....These are beautiful.
I wouldn't suggest chorus lyrics as songs like these are personal things.
Like old doll I'm sure they will come.

Regards
Arkady

Re: SILVER TEARS

rhiannon

At first I tried a few chords but got nothing but then I took Jerome's idea with Am Dm Em.

with strumming pattern  down down down up down played slowly

Am                                Dm
Lava burns through her aching heart
Em                    Am
Leaving a deep hole,
Am                      Dm
Crying, screaming for help
Em                             Am
She lies there on her bed.

Weeping for what might have been
Remembering the past,
Looking through old photo’s
Burning what she has left.

Em                       Am
Gathering her few belongings
Em                                   Am
Running, stumbling as she falls,
Em                     Am               
Silver tears run down her cheek
Em                        Am
Sitting with nothing left.

then for a break somewhere and to finish the song

Am  Dm   Em  Am  X2
Am  Dm    Em   Em  Em


great song. Another for my list!!

Re: SILVER TEARS

Hi Rhiannon,

Beautiful words and Ken' chords work real well with it to make a great song. You had better get on and record it or you might find that Ken has beaten you too it as his aspirations appear to have risen above being just a king lol.

Well done to both of you,


Roger
