Chords and Lyrics Brian Fallon - Etta James
Artist : Brian Fallon
Song : Etta James
Intro : D Bm D G (x2)
Verse 1 :
D Bm
Did you spend most of your life waitin'
D G
On a fairytale read between pages?
D Bm
Did you huddle up close to your boombox radio
D A G
Is somebody waiting on the same song?
Bm G
And we sold our souls on the fantasies
D A
we found in records and black and white movies
Bm G
And I used to beg June to burn me alive,
D A
if that would get me anywhere but here
Chorus :
D A
Now Etta James, hit that symphony
Bm G
Cause she drips through my blood like a remedy
D
And for most of my sad life
A Bm A G
I figured I was gonna die alone
D A
Cause I just burned in the curve of my scars
Bm G
Twenty long years away from your heart
D A Bm A G
Til finally, finally, my love is in my arms
D Bm D A G
My love is in my arms
Verse 2 :
D
And it was impossible
Bm
to hold on to anything
D G
In my chest was a lonesome, growing cyclone
D Bm
I kept pictures tucked up into the rearview above
D A G
to the sirens all lost in the ocean
Bm G
And all we wanted was absolutely everything
D A
Like foolish, hungry young lions
Bm G
I was lost and alone, a million light years from home
D A
It was nobody's fault but mine
Chorus :
D A
Now Etta James, hit that symphony
Bm G
Cause she drips through my blood like a remedy
D
And for most of my sad life
A Bm A G
I figured I was gonna die alone
D A
Cause I just burned in the curve of my scars
Bm G
Twenty long years away from your heart
D A Bm A G
But finally, finally, my love is in my arms
Bridge :
Bm G
And was there a hole in your life?
D
Did you kill to keep warm but somehow
A
never quite satisfied?
Bm G
Do you feel like it's always time to go?
D
And it's always wrong, and it's always off,
A
and it's hard to know, which heart to hold
Bm G
Now do you lie to someone,
D A
is someone else, on your mind?
Bm G D A
Do you lie to someone with me on your mind?
Chorus :
D A
Now Etta James, hit that symphony
Bm G
Cause she drips through my blood like a remedy
D
And for most of my sad life
A Bm A G
I figured I was gonna die alone
D A
Cause I just burned in the curve of my scars
Bm G
Twenty long years away from your heart
D A Bm A G
Til finally, finally, my love is in my arms
D
My love is in my arms
Outro :
D A
Etta James, Etta James
Bm G
Etta James, it's been a long time coming
D A
Etta James, Etta James
Bm G
Etta James, it's been a long time coming
D A
(At last, at last)
Bm G
Etta James, it's been a long time coming
D A
(At last, at last)
Bm G
Etta James, it's been a long time coming
G
I could've said my love was coming 'long
