Oh My Dear Tenth Avenue North
I dont know how tenth ave plays this, but these are the actual chords, and for it
to sound right, to me at least, your guitar needs to be a full step down. these
are the chromatically correct chords (rather than relative to tuning) so if you
tune your guitar down a step, to D standard, you will be playing with the G shape.
Thanks to darksladex for the layout, i merely copied what chords i think are
correct over his format.
(intro)
[F] [Bbmaj7/D] [F] [Bbmaj7/D] [F] [Am] [Bb]
Verse 1:
I [F]called you up, you were in [Bbmaj7/D]bed,
could barely make out the words that you[F] said
But you [F]wanted to see me ins[Am]tead, so I got[Bb] dressed
and I [F]stepped out into the [Bbmaj7/D]snow, and [F]walked for a mile or [Bbmaj7/D]so
Felt the [F]rush of blood come from the [Am]cold, in my[Bb] chest
Dm F Gm7 Bb9 x2
Verse 2:
Well you [F]finally came to the [Bbmaj7/D]door,
and we [F]talked for an hour or [Bbmaj7/D]more
Until I [F]asked if you would stay up til [Am]four,
you said that's [Bb]fine.
But you said, "[F]there's something I have to [Bbmaj7/D]say,
and I [F]can't because I'm just so [Bbmaj7/D]afraid"
And so I [F]held you as you started to [Am]shake, that [Bb]night
Pre-Chorus:
[Dm]Oh my dea[F]r, I'll w[Gm7]ait for y[Bb9]ou
[Dm]Grace ton[F]ight will p[Gm7]ull us th[Bb9]rough
Chorus:
Until the [F]tears have left your [C2/E]eyes
Until the [Dm]fear can sleep at [Bb9]night
Until the [F]demons that you're [C2/E]scared of
[Dm]Disappear in[Bb9]side
Until this [D]scale begins to [C2/E]crack
And the [Dm]weight falls from your [G(maj)]back
Oh my [Dm]dear, I'll keep you [C/E]in my arms toni[F]ght
[F] [Bbmaj7/D] [F] [Bbmaj7/D]
Verse 3:
You slowly [F]lifted your head from your [Bb]hands
You said "I [F]just don't think that you'll [Bb]understand
You'll never [F]look at me that way a[Am]gain
if you knew what I [Bb]did"
And so your [F]tears fell and melted the [Bb]snow
You told me [F]secrets nobody had [Bb]known
But I [F]never loved you more, even [Am]though
Now I know what you [Bb]did
Pre-Chorus: (repeat)
[Dm]Oh my de[F/C]ar, I'll wa[Gm7]it for yo[Bb9]u
[Dm]Grace ton[F/C]ight will p[Gm7]ull us th[Bb9]rough
Chorus:
Until the [F]tears have left your [C2/E]eyes
Until the [Dm]fear can sleep at [Bb9]night
Until the [F]demons that you're [C2/E]scared of
[Dm]Disappear in[Bb9]side
Until this [D]scale begins to [C2/E]crack
And the [Dm]weight falls from your [G(maj)]back
Oh my [Dm]dear, I'll keep you [C/E]in my arms...[F]
(repeat)
[F] [Bbmaj7/D] [F] [Bbmaj7/D]
[F] [Am] [Bb]
