Starlings chords by

N/A
Verse 1
D
Em
D
A

I was thinking about the time when
G

we sat under the trees at the service station
D
A

I was blinking in the bright memories
G

of those mornings of migration
D
G

I haven't been there for two years
D
G
D

I spent the summer on the ground
G

I couldn't keep those big ideas
D
G
D

along the tight lines of the town
Em

And the starlings went through
G
A

everything that I had
Em
G

Take the mistle down from the wayside,
D
A

take the key down from the wall.
Em
G

Take the tower from the hillside,
D
A

take the matches from the drawer.
Em
G

And the low sun on the hillside
D
A

turns all the windows gold
Em
G

And I'm walking in frost shadows,
D
A

kicking bottle tops down the road
Em
G

I was cutting through the cornfield on
D
A

distant mornings scared of snakes
Em
G

And I wrote it all in pencil and the
D
A

rain washed out the page
Em
G

The reflections in the water and
D
A

the daylight through the leaves
Em
G

And the cold air of the autumn
D
A

are the things that I believe
G
D

And the starlings were so loud that they
G

drowned out all of my confusion
D
A

Like the darkness that you get round
G

bright lights in black and white television
D
G
D

It was the sound of carbon hand slate
G
D

It was the sound of a thousand winds
G

Above the concrete and dry clay
D
G

And I forget about everything
D
Em

And the lightning stood be
G
A

side us on the hill
Em
G

Take the blankets, take the road maps
D
A

Take the apples from the bough
Em
G

Take the feeling, you will come back
D
A

Lay the rest out on the ground
Em
G

And the stars shine in the cold frost
D

And we are abstract for a while
A
Em
G

But there's so much that will be lost,
D
A

so let's come down from the sky
Em
G

And we'll walk out through the evening,
D
A

so we know we are alive
Em
G

Cause there's nothing going to keep
D
A

us from rolling into that good night
Em
G

Take the vessel down, take your memories,
D
A

give them to me while you can
Em
G

Cause there's nothing you can keep now
D
A
Em
G
D

It rolls on now, it rolls on

  • Best Tuning App Ever

    MaddProfessor

    I've downloaded many tuning apps before and this one is by far the best. Easy to use, super user-friendly, and they have a bunch of fun different chords and songs to help you learn new music. I highly recommend.

  • Well-Designed App

    Rose the Black Cat

    I mostly use this for tuning my guitar, which this app makes ridiculously easy. It also has a large selection of songs to play along to and it helps show you which chords to play as well how to make the shapes with your fingers.

  • Got me back into playing

    Tuliketsune

    I got this app to tune an old guitar, and noticed it has a feature that autoscrolls as I play chords to famous songs. For some reason, this was a lot more motivating for me than any other way of practicing guitar. Now I'm actually practicing and remembering the names of chords 🙂

  • Secret weapon

    Brad

    Not only is it a tuner (best app tuner I've used personally) but it also has a metronome, games, chords, and a plethora of instruments to choose from and it's SUPER easy to navigate. I love it! Thanks for making an awesome app. From one musician to another, THANKS!!!

  • Very reliable tuner

    theNewPaul

    This is a great app! Very easy to use and very reliable, if you are just starting out, you can take a big worry off your mind, by getting in tune quickly and easily with this app. Highly recommended!

  • This is the best guitar tuner ever.

    Caleb Schafli

    It tunes your guitar accurately so you can get the best sound. I like all the other little games as well because they teach you how to play different chords and you can learn to identify the chords by listening to them and it is all offline.

  • Great to tune and play

    Lynae T

    I love how easy it is to tune and find and play my favorite songs.
