Topic: Always Lovers

FIRST RUN THROUGH WITH 63bpm DRUM TRACK https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rds90mWv8Dg

V1
Cadd9                      C                 
We  started out as lovers, 
Am
Never thinking friends.
C                         Dm
Passion could sustain us,
G                                               Am   Am
And provide the fairytale end.

V2
Cadd9                          C
The times alone and times apart, 
Am
Pulling at our hearts,
C                                       Dm
We never knew that friendship 
G                                           Am     Am
Is where we needed to start.

CH:
D
Well look at us now 
G
I’ll tell you somehow, 
D                               A   
Even though we fell apart, 
      D       A        G                    A
We still share a piece  of each heart

(brake)
F  C  Dm  Bb  (2 beats per chord) X4

V3 
Cadd9                  C                     
We  started out as lovers, 
Am
Never thinking friends.
C                           Dm
Passion could sustain us,
G                                                Am  Am
And provide the fairytale end.

V4
Cadd9                   C
We were always starting over
Am
Instead of starting to begin
C                                               Dm
We were always starting over
G                                                 Am 
Instead of letting each other in


CH:
D
Well look at us now 
G
I’ll tell you somehow 
D                               A   
Even though we fell apart

We still share a piece of each heart

Re: Always Lovers

I like the lyrics Beamer and your backing track sounds good. I got a friend who gets on well with his ex wife and her new husband and he often tells me, "once I fell out of lust with her I discovered she could be a good friend."

Exactly.  We had a great time but after a few years, and it always "seemed" like nothing I could do (except being a dad, im a great dad) would ever be good enough.  Little did I know there was Bar set so high I could not attain it.  Funny thing was she couldnt see the barriers in the way either.  Now, none of that is there and the kids are all "adults".

It makes a huge difference.

Re: Always Lovers

Hey Scott - I enjoyed that. Showing your softer side. I would love to hear how you sing it as well.
