HISTORY OF US (Emily Saliers)
-----------------------------
[I'm sorry these chords aren't very helpful. I'm not sure exactly
what fingerings she uses, because I don't trust the songbook.]
["s" in a chord name is an abbreviation for "sus".]
Gmaj7 Gmaj7 D7/C - C(9) C(9) Gmaj7 Gmaj7 D7/C - C(9) C(9)
[intro]
Gmaj7 Gmaj7 D7/C - C(9) C(9)
I went all the way to Paris
Gmaj7 Gmaj7 D7/C - C(9) C(9)
To forget your face
Am7 Bm7 C(9) F#7
Captured in stained glass, young lives long since past
Bm E7sus - E7 Am D7sus - D7
Statues of lovers everyplace
Gmaj7 Gmaj7 D7/C - C(9) C(9)
I went all across the continent
Gmaj7 Gmaj7 D7/C - C(9) C(9)
To relieve this restless love
Am7 Bm7 C(9) F#7
I walked through the ruins, icons of glory
Bm E7s - E7 Am D7sus - D7
Smashed by the bombs from above
Gsus G F/G F/G
So we must love while these moments are still called
Cmaj7 Cmaj7 Cm9 Cm9
today; Take part in the pain of this passion
Bm Bm E7sus E7 Am7 Am7 D7sus D7
play; Stretching our youth as we must, until we are ashes to dust
Am7 Am7 D7sus D7 Em(9) Em Em(9) Em
Until time makes history of us
Jeu de Paume's full of faces, knowing peace, knowing strife
Leisure and toil, still it's canvas and oil; there's just no medium for life
In the midst of the rubble, I felt a sense of rebirth
In a dusty cathedral, the living god called, and I prayed for my life here
on Earth
So we must love while these moments are still called today
Take part in the pain of this passion play
Stretching our youth as we must, until we are ashes to dust
Until time makes history of us
Am7 Am7 Bm7 Bm7 Am7 Am7 D7sus D7
[instrumental]
There are mountains in Switzerland, knowing peace, knowing strife
From my hotel room, watching the half-moon bleeding its life like a lamb
And the town is illumined; its tiny figures are fast asleep
And it dawns on me, the time is upon me to return to the flock I must keep
So we must love while these moments are still called today
Take part in the pain of this passion play
Stretching our youth as we must, until we are ashes to dust
Until time makes history of us
Em(9) Em Em(9) Em Em(9).
[instrumental]
