The Songs I Didnt Write (CHORDS) by Creaky Boards
[Verse]~
Bm E
When you have gone to bed
A F#m
And I am alone inside my head
A E
I turn on the stereo
F#m A
The one only I can know
[Bridge]~
A
And I hear the songs
Bm
That I didn't write
E
I hear what they sounded like
F#m
All over town
G
All over town
E
All over town
[Verse]~
Bm E
It would have made me cry
A F#m
What would have fallen from your eye
A Bm E
Would have destroyed our love
E
and I would say!!!
[Bridge]~
A
Oh my God,.. oh my God,.. what was I thinking of..?
[Chorus]~
Bm E A
Every night it plays,.. a little louder
F#m Abdim
Telling me to sing,.. a little louder
Bm C#
Telling me I can't escape
F# A
Escape the way I am,.. a little louder
Bm E A
Every night I open up my folder
Bm F#m
To recollect the words
[Bridge]~
F#m A
I heard in the songs
Bm
That I didn't write
E
I heard what they sounded like
F#m
All over town
G
All over town
E
All over town
[Verse]~
Bm E
But when you heard the notes
A F#m
That would have vaulted from my throat
Bm C#
There was a meaning past the awfulness
F#m Ebdim
There's something pure and true
E
That would have been great!
[Solo]~
A D E A
A D E
[Verse]~
E Bm E
It would have made me cry
A F#m
What would have fallen from my eye
A Bm E
Merely had poisoned me
E
And I would say
[Bridge]~
A
Oh my god,.. oh my god,.. I had to get it out
[Chorus]~
Bm E A
Every night it plays,.. a little louder
Bm F#m Abdim
Telling me to sing,.. a little louder
Bm C#
Telling me I can't escape
F#
Escape the way I am
Bm
A little louder
Bm E A
Every night the pen is getting drier
Bm F#m
From writing down those words
[Bridge]~
F#m A
I sing in the songs
Bm
That I didn't write
Em
I sing what they sounded like
F#m
All over town
G
All over town
E
All over town
[Verse]~
Bm E
But when you heard the poem
A F#m
That would have shook around our home
Bm
There was a chance it could've
C# F# Ebdim
Broken down the walls around our path
E
That would have been great
[Outro]~
E
I hear the songs and what they sounded like
E
I hear the songs and what they sounded like
E
I hear the songs and what they sounded like
E
I hear the songs
