James Blunt – Beside You
Key: Db Major BPM: ♩ = 124 Time: 4/4
|Ebm               |Bbm               |Db                        |Gb                       |
   I hope there's a song that God only knows, and it's keeping me dancing (Dancing dancing)
|Ebm          |Bbm                 |Db                       |Gb               |Gb      |
   Nobody here knows how the melody goes, but it's keeping me dancing (Dancing, dancing)

       |Ebm                        |Bbm                             |
(Beside you) Oh, Lord, here I go, I get the highs, but why the lows?
|Db                                   |Gb                           |
 Set me up with all these souls, and I watch them fall like dominoes
|Ebm                          |Bbm                                    |
   Too long I been on my feet, need more time, but it don't come cheap
|Db                                   |Gb                             |
   Some day I'll be on my knees, and I pray my heart don't miss a beat

   |Ebm                              |Bbm                                   |
But here I am and I feel that rhythm, miss the lifeline that I've been given
   |Db                                 |Gb                         |Gb  |
And all these colours in my head, and I ask myself, "Is it over yet?"

|Ebm               |Bbm               |Db                        |Gb     |
   I hope there's a song that God only knows, and it's keeping me dancing
|Ebm          |Bbm                 |Db                       |Gb     |
   Nobody here knows how the melody goes, but it's keeping me dancing
      |Ebm    |Bbm     |Db    |Gb    |
beside you,      beside you
      |Ebm    |Bbm     |Db    |Gb    |
Beside you,      beside you

|Ebm                     |Bbm                             |
   Oh, Lord, here I come, touch the sky and I kiss the sun
   |Db                                        |Gb                                     |
And when she fades, I know I might fall, but I won't care much 'cause I've seen it all

   |Ebm                              |Bbm                                   |
But here I am and I feel that rhythm, miss the lifeline that I've been given
   |Db                                 |Gb                           |
And all these colours in my head, and I ask myself, "Is it over yet?"
      |Gb                             |Gb    |
(Is it over yet? Is it over yet? Is it over?)

|Ebm               |Bbm               |Db                        |Gbmaj7  |
   I hope there's a song that God only knows, and it's keeping me dancing
|Ebm          |Bbm                 |Db                       |Gbmaj7  |
   Nobody here knows how the melody goes, but it's keeping me dancing
      |Ebm  |Bbm     |Db  |Gb  |
beside you,    beside you
      |Ebm  |Bbm     |Db  |Gb  |
Beside you,    beside you

|Ebm        |Bbm            |Db             |Gbmaj7  |
   No coming down, no coming down, no coming down
|Ebm          |Bbm                 |Db               |Gb  |
   Head in the clouds, feet off the ground, no coming down

                 |Ebm                   |Bbm               |Db                        |Gbmaj7  |
(I hope there's a song) I hope there's a song that God only knows, and it's keeping me dancing
|Ebm          |Bbm                 |Db                       |Gbmaj7  |
   Nobody here knows how the melody goes, but it's keeping me dancing
      |Ebm  |Bbm     |Db  |Gbmaj7  |
beside you,    beside you
      |Ebm  |Bbm     |Db         |Gbmaj7  |
Beside you,    beside you (Beside you)

|Ebm               |Bbm               |Db                        |Gb                  |
   I hope there's a song that God only knows, and it's keeping me dancing (Beside you)
