Guitar chords for beginners: "February Song" by Josh Groban - Chord illustrations

Am                   D            Am

Where has that old friend gone
Am         D            Am

Lost in a February song
Am            D          C

Tell him it won't be long
                        G       C      G   D      G

Til he opens his eyes, opens his eyes
Am  D  Am  D...

Where is that simple day
Before colors broke into shades
And how did I ever fade
Into this life, into this life
G                   D         Em         C
And I never want to let you down
G                   D        Em – C

Forgive me if I slip awaaay
G                             D            Em          C

When all that I've known is lost and found
G                     D                 Em   D  C            G

I promise you I, I'll come back to you one day
Am  D  Am  D...
Morning is waking up
And sometimes it's more than just enough
When all that you need to love
Is in front of your eyes
It's in front of your eyes
G  D  Em  C...
And I never want to let you down
Forgive me if I slip away
Sometimes it's hard to find the ground
G                       D                  Em D  C       D

Cause I keep on falling as I try to get away
D        B    C  B   Em      B   Em...

From this crazy world
G  D  Em  C...
And I never want to let you down
Forgive me if I slip away
When all that I've known is lost and found
I promise you I, I'll come back to you one day
Am  D  Am  D...
Where has that old friend gone
Lost in a February song
Tell him it won't be long
Til he opens his eyes
Opens his eyes.

Guitar chords for beginners: "You Raise Me Up" by Josh Groban - Chord illustrations

Chords: Radiohead

 

                   C              F                      C

When I am down and, oh my soul, so weary;
                         C            F             G

When troubles come and my heart burdened be;
                 Am          F                      C        F

Then, I am still and wait here in the silence,
                 C          G                     C     G

Until you come and sit awhile with me.
G                   Am     F                         C               G
You raise me up, so I can stand on mountains;
G                   Am      F                         C     G

You raise me up, to walk on stormy seas;
          Am              F                         C            F

I am strong, when I am on your shoulders;
                      C             G                      C

You raise me up... To more than I can be.
A                   Bm     G                         D                 A

You raise me up, so I can stand on mountains;
A                   Bm       G                         D     A

You raise me up, to walk on stormy seas;
          Bm              G                         D           G

I am strong, when I am on your shoulders;
                       D            A                        D                 

You raise me up... To more than I can be.
There is no life - no life without its hunger;
Each restless heart beats so imperfectly;
But when you come and I am filled with wonder,
Sometimes, I think I glimpse eternity.
A#                 Cm    G#                       D#            A#
You raise me up, so I can stand on mountains;
A#                 Cm      G#                       D#    A#

You raise me up, to walk on stormy seas;
        Cm               G#                      D#               G#

I am strong, when I am on your shoulders;
                      D#          A#                     D#

You raise me up... To more than I can be.
A#  Cm  G#  D#...
You raise me up, so I can stand on mountains;
You raise me up, to walk on stormy seas;
I am strong, when I am on your shoulders;
You raise me up... To more than I can be.
You raise me up... To more than I can be.
