Nothing Special Acordes

[Verse 1]
     G            D
It's once upon a time
       Am7               C
I rode with a friend of mine
        Em          G/B           C   _
Side by side on the conquerors’ route
         G            D
We were set in our designs
        Am7              C
We were wasted on white wine
        Em         G/B           C    _
And our fine satin jackets hung loose
 
 
[Verse 2]
     G               D
We triumphed and we lost
        Am7          C
But we knew, at any cost
            Em           G/B          C  _
There was treasure we’d claw our way to
           G               D
And we’d know it by the gleam
       Am7                 C
We had seen inside some dream
          Em                G/B         C    _
That was beamеd through our boyhood bedrooms
 
 
[Chorus]
             A7        C  G  _
When we wеre nothing special

[Verse 3]
    G                  D
In time, I’ll see my queen
     Am7                C
Gray-eyed, emblazoned jeans
      Em    G/B      C  _
And a raven riding boot
   G                 D
I call her from the moon
         Am7             C
With my thousand-dollar tune
        Em           G/B           C   _
But, in airlessness, my  words diffuse
 
 
[Verse 4]
     G                     D
My friend, he failed and fought
     Am7               C
In a pattern, he was caught
        Em           G/B                 C   _
And his family, they could not break through
         G            D
And his lover stood aside
         Am7               C
From the other room, she cried
         Em         G/B            C  _
She was shivering inside her swimsuit
 
 
[Chorus]
        A7        C  G   D
Was she nothing special?

[Verse 5]
       G             D
You’re only of your time
        Am7           C
And I’m certainly of mine
        Em     G/B     C    _
You and I, we stand accused
       G               D
I can see some coming day
       Am7           C
Just a year or two away
           Em           G/B        C   _
When we’ll wake to some wonderful news
 
 
[Verse 6]
       G             D
You’re opening your eyes
        Am7                C
And the same old friendly lies
          Em       G/B        C   _
Can’t disguise the terrible truth
      G                    D
Hard waves are going to break
          Am7            C
You’ll be covering your face
     Em        G/B                C   _
But amazingly, you’ll make it through
 
 
[Chorus]
             A7        C  G   D
Cause you’re nothing special

[Verse 7]
       G              D
I’m stranded on the shore
           Am7          C
And you’re gone forevermore
       Em           G/B           C   _
And embraced at the baseline, so deep
          G              D
You were lost, or I was cowed
       Am7             C
But it doesn’t matter now
         Em           G/B         C   _
We’ll discuss it some time I’m asleep
 
 
[Verse 8]
     G               D
Sit by my side, so close
         Am7              C
And I’ll tell you all I know
         Em           G/B         C  _
I don’t mind if you’d like to repeat
      G                D
It’s time to say it’s done
        Am7             C
I’m not getting what I want
           Em          G/B       C  _
When I’ve lost it, I’m finally free
 
 
[Chorus]
      A7        C  G  D
To be nothing special

[Bridge]
         A7  C   G  D
Oh, it's nothing

[Verse 9]
     G                  D
We stagger through the hills
         Am7              C
And I’m stripping off my silks
       Em     G/B           C   _
And my silver rings I have sold
     G                  D
My friend’s along with me
       Am7             C
And we make it to the sea
         Em          G/B           C
We’ve agreed to give back all our gold
