Part 1:
Em C Em D Em
Dear when I touch your face, aw-aw DOM DOM
Em C Em D Em
I can no longer hear, aw-aw DOM DOM
Em C D Em
The sound of a million hearts
Em C Em D Em
Beating together as one DOM DOM
Em C Em D Em
And when the night is gone, aw-aw DOM DOM
Em C Em D Em
And when the dawn has come, aw-aw DOM DOM
Em C D Em
I will take the daylight on
Em C Em D
My cheeks will dry off in the sun DOM..
Part 2:
Part 2 introduction, guitar part (same as the ba-ba part):
Em D
e|---------------------------------------------------|
B|---------------------------------------------------|
G|-----------0--------2---2--------------------------|
D|-----2-2-2---4-2--0---0----------------------------|
A|---------------------------------------------------|
E|---------------------------------------------------|
Part 2 introduction, bass part, tuned to Drop D tuning:
Em D
G|---------------------------------------------------|
D|---------------------------------------------------|
A|-------------0-2-0--------------0------------------|
D|-----2-2---5------5-2---0-0-4-5---5-4-0------------|
There is probably a way to play it in Standard tuning.
Beats me, though. Intro ends acapella.
Em D
..ba-ba-ba-BA, ba-da dum Dum dum Dum
Em D
..ba-ba-ba-BA, ba-da dum Dum dum Dum
Em G D A
Ba ba ba ba, ba-da ba ba ba ba, ba-da ba ba ba ba, ba-da bum
Em Em/B C
Though my heart once was broke, it's been mended
Em Em/B C
And the sting of the fracture has ended
Em C
But still the sound of the hearts that are breaking
G D
And boots that are knocking pervades
Em C
Before the day that I first touched your face
G D
Oh, the roar of these things filled my ears
Em C
Then I embraced you and (made partly deaf)
G D
I could just hear our breath as we breathed
Em Em/B C
Up 'til that day I could hear them
Em Em/B C
And the sound as they broke, it was fearsome
Em C
That was until your arms opened up wide
G D
And the treasure therein was made mine
Em C
There is a noise that is taking their place
G D
In the hollow of my inner ear
Em C
It is far more than the sum of its parts
G D, D7, AAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHH
A white noise as warm as the sun
Part 3:
C G
Now that I've found you dear
D Em
Their plight has lost immediacy
C G
And now that I've touched your face
D Em
The noise fades from memory
C G
I guess we'll forget the sound
D Em
I guess, I guess
C G
My cheeks will dry off in
D Em
The sun, the sun
C G
I guess we'll forget the sound
D Em
I guess, I guess
