The Echo Acordes

The Echo
By: Bleu Edmondson
 
 
Capo 2
 
Intro:
Em  G  D  Em  (X2)
 
     Em
The sinners and the saints and the suicide girls 
   Em
Passion into darkness and the pawnshop pearls 
    D                          Em
One place, one time, one love, we owned the night 
        Em
And the tender souls wondered where the faith had all gone 
        G
And the neon on Lamar came rumbling on 
     D                                          Em
We swore they wouldn't take us down without a fight 
 Cadd9                            D
Hopeless hearted hunters waging war on the stars 
     G                            Cadd9
We cheered the revolution from a rooftop bar 
     Cadd9                   D                   G
And swore to one another only we could make it right 
 
 
Chorus:
         G              D             Em
We said maybe tonight, maybe tonight, maybe tonight we can 
 G              D              Em                   G
Maybe tonight, maybe tonight, maybe tonight we can 
 
 
 
Verse 2:
 
    Em
I remember your kiss like TNT 
    Em
How it rattled every long gone part of me 
       D                                                Em
And in the heat of the night you shook when you said my name 
        Em
And the precious drop of sweat running down your back 
 
Like a southbound train burning down the tracks
    G                                          Em
Two martyrs in a world that would never be the same 
          Cadd9                            D
Among the midnight runners and the teenage stunners 
        G                          Cadd9
We were searching for the light of day  
   Cadd9
We hoped against hope we could find one voice 
   D                              G
To sing what we were desperate to say 
 
 
Chorus:
 
         G              D             Em
We said maybe tonight, maybe tonight, maybe tonight we can 
 G              D              Em                   G
Maybe tonight, maybe tonight, maybe tonight we can 
 
         G              D             Em
We said maybe tonight, maybe tonight, maybe tonight we can 
 G              D              Em                   G
Maybe tonight, maybe tonight, maybe tonight we can  
 
 
Horn Solo
 
        Em
And the tears running down your face
 D
Like a sad broken prophet's parade 
      G
While this dirty city sleeps tonight 
   D
To the guttered serenade 
     Em
Underneath that holy streetlight 
       D
We can take it all back again 
    Cadd9                                    G
And its the echo of the wounded heart in the night 
     D                      G
That proves we were born to win
