New Years Eve by Golden Birds New Years Eve by Golden Birds Nick Edwards (nick@wellgateventures.com) My first post so go easy on me. Not exactly right, so maybe someone can tell me where I gone wrong. Sounds pretty good though, and a great song. Intro C G Am F C X2 C G We met on a rooftop, Swimming up for oxygen Am F C It overlooked the sunset, But we faced the other way G It was cold but her voice was shot, And downstairs they were packing it in Am F C So we toughed it out placing bets on planes, As they rose above the bay C G And I was gonna bring her apples, When she was in need C G C After I’d sucked the cyanide from the seeds, I was gonna bring her apples, C G There were complaints and the police came, But we left no shred of proof Am F C And as we leapt from roof to roof, She said she’d be my alibi G And when I said I’d do the same, She just smiled and said she wasn’t the type to get caught Am F C But when I kissed her forehead it was hot, And she was shivering against the skyline C G And now I’m gonna bring her apples, When she’s in need C G C After I suck the cyanide from the seeds, I’m gonna bring her apples (Instrumental break) G F (x4) C G F I’m not trying to change you G F I’m not trying to change you G F I’m not trying to change you G F I was never trying to change you C G We met on a rooftop, Swimming up for oxygen Am F C It overlooked the sunset, But we faced the other way G It was cold but her voice was shot, And downstairs they were packing it in Am F C So we toughed it out placing bets on planes, As they rose above the bay C G I’ll have extra air for you , Any time you start to drown Am F C I’ll keep you warm when the sunrise isn’t reaching through your door G I’ll give you a number to count up to, When we’re touching down Am F I’ll bring you apples when your throat is sore http://www.goldenbirds.com/ www.TAB6.com
