On Every Page Chords

Standard (EADGBE)

E7sus4 = x20200

Bmin6 = x20100 – With these two he moves quickly from the E7sus4 to the Bmin6, and plays

the g string then the b string in each case.

Dsus2/B = x20230

This song has a lot of ‘twiddly’ bits on the high e and b strings, revolving around the

3rd and 5th fret I think. These are just the basic chords, but if you play around with

adding stuff on the bottom two strings then I think this is pretty close so far.

Verse

AmWhen you just tell them what Dsus2I cannBot say

Gwhen you just shine upon the Cghosts aloE7sus4ng my wBmin6ay

AmI drop the game of throwing Dsus2knivesB alone

Gthere must be marks on every Ctree

E7sus4from thBmin6e past to ourFsus2 home F E7sus4 Bmin6

AmOnly the mayfly used to Dsus2tell mBe so

Gnow here is august, drop your Cweight, juE7sus4st let Bmin6go

Amnow midnight sun takes turns with Dsus2northeBrn lights

Gwill I ever have to Cfeel what those blades wE7sus4ere aboBmin6ut?

Prechorus

Fsus2 F E7sus4 Bmin6

(here he goes into the more traditional, alternating bass note fingerpicking style)

FIn that sound of sighing, tChat empty howl

E7sus4and all theBmin6 everloving Ambends in the lAm/Fine of your tries

Fsome ends forgotten and some Cothers believed

E7sus4whatever haBmin6ppened to thAme boy is now a Am/Ftale for the seas

Chorus

Fwhen you kCnow you’re already yGoung

Flike the gCrass wither to becomGe

Fsus2again and E7sus4free, Bmin6 E7sus4 Bmin6

Amit’s all we’ll ever be

Here he does a lick that he hums over which is based around a G chord, and the 3rd frets

on the B and high E strings

And I think that’s it! Just repeat the verse/chorus bits until the last verse, where he

slows back down into the more flamenco style.

Verse

I don’t remember where i learned to dive

but I am humble for the rocks when I try

and somehow I am lowered onto the waves

now with you I feel the sun and the salt on my face

Prechorus

In that sound of sighing, that empty howl

and all the everloving bends in the line of your tries

some ends forgotten and some others believed

whatever happened to the boy is now a tale for the seas

Chorus

when you know you’re already young

like the grass wither to become

again and free,

it’s all we’ll ever be

Slower Verse

The tired motion of the rusty bell

just humming, visitor I quit, go to hell

I’ve been the tower but now walk along

there must be marks on every page

from the past to these songs.

Prechorus

In that sound of sighing, that empty howl

and all the everloving bends in the line of your tries

some ends forgotten and some others believed

whatever happened to the boy is now a tale for the seas

Chorus

when you know you’re already young

like the grass wither to become

again and free,

End on Asus2 = x02200

it’s all we’ll ever be
