Now - Fear Yourself (2003)

 

If you think your thoughts so rationally

Then you might just see it’s not so funny

 

Prey tell.

The wishing well will get you eventually.

Beware.

What you are is what you’re doing there.

 

Love is lingering with you on it’s mind

And it’s giving you a moment so kind

 

Believe.

Your broken heart could heal so dramatically

And with a little luck

You could see a better way again real soon

 

As we stare into each other’s eyes

And each year just goes so fast and goodbye

 

Look around

What your friends are telling you so free

Be gone

It’s all over as the sun does set once more

 

If you think that love has a chance with you

Maybe hope can shine a light so true

 

Just smile 

You can win the victory so sweet   

And know   

It’s just another day for you and me     

     

And tomorrow – no more sorrow

You can all her - if you want to   

     

There’s a new way – why won’t you try it 

Heaven sent it and you’ll believe it now 

     

Love can save you now  

Love can save you now  

Love can save you now  

     

Now

Chords thanks to Zack

 

The first “lo-fi” part is played using fingerings for G, C, and D, but either he’s using a capo on the second fret, or the tape is running fast, or he’s just got the guitar tuned a step up.  Whatever the reason, the resulting chords sound A, D, and E

 

The second “studio’ section is in actual G major.

 

Em9    0-2-2-0-0-2 work nicely at the end.
