Chords for Damien Rice - Amie (With Intro) - Live HD

There's a song about taking off shirts.
_ _ And laughing.
[N] _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
[Dm] _ And laughing. And shirts.
[A] There was a_
[D] It was an evening where it was_
It wasn't even an evening actually, it was an afternoon.
I was sitting in Ireland and it [E] was raining.
_ _ _ _ [D#] And uh_
It's already dark enough and grey enough in [D] Ireland.
But for some reason there was also this tradition to [D#] put net curtains on all [C] the windows.
Just to keep out any [N] possible light. _
So there I was like this [E] _ [G] youngish guy [C] staring out the window of my parents house.
_ [F] _ _ [G#] And uh_
[A] I just wasn't feeling so great so I called up my [Em] friend.
_ And she said, come on over here.
Her house didn't have a curtain.
So I went over.
[Dm] _ [A] We hung out for a while.
And [B] it just felt better for some reason.
You know, just [Bm] being out of_
_ _ [Em] Hanging out [E] with her.
We've been friends for ages.
It's just this really comfortable platonic _ relationship.
_ [A] _ _ And then uh_
[D] That evening [E] she says,
[D#] Tell you what, why don't you [B] stay here tonight?
_ You can stay in my bed. _ _
[F#] And I had never_
Well, not that I had [N] never thought about it. _ _ _ _
[C] And really thought about it that much.
Because we [B] were friends.
And [D] so my brain just went into this new space.
And [N] _ _ [B] _
[C] within sort of a third of a second.
I had [B] this whole story built in.
Time just [E] paused.
_ [C] My imagination went to all these [B] places.
And then [Fm] out of that space [E] I heard this echoing_
You know like_
[N] That brought me back.
Yeah, my sister's gone away so I'll stay in her bed. _
_ Ha ha ha ha!
[D] _ _ _ _
_ Yeah.
Ha ha ha ha!
[C#] So she brought me upstairs and_
[Em] She says I'll tuck you in, [Bm] you know.
And I was like, cool, thanks.
[B] Ha ha ha ha!
She was like, go on, take off your clothes, get ready.
And I was like_
_ [B] Ha ha ha ha!
She was so [D] like, [C] straightforward.
Not a [D#m] single sexual thing on her mind.
You know, and I was [D] like_
[E] So I just got ready anyway, I get into bed.
And she sat at the side of the bed.
And kneeled down and put [B] her_
What's her arm like that?
On the side of the bed and she _ said_
You know, all that's wrong with you [Em] is_
You know, you just need to spend [G#] some time with yourself.
Just, you know, stare out the window.
Look at the stars and_
Just spend a little bit of time with yourself and you'll feel so much better in the morning.
[N] _ _ Ha ha ha ha!
_ So_
_ She left the room.
[C#] I looked out the window.
Nice stars.
Decided to take her advice and spent a little bit of time with myself.
Ha ha ha ha!
_ _ [A] _ _ _ [D] She was right.
I [C#] did feel better.
Ha ha ha ha!
[B] _ Just for a while.
And so I went back home to my parents the next day.
And this song [D] I felt like_
Nothing unusual.
_ [A] _ _
Strange.
_ [B] _ Close to nothing at [A] all.
_ _ _ [Em] _ Same old [Bm] scenarios.
The same old dream.
_ [Em] And there's no_
_ [A] Explosions here. _ Something [D] _ _ unusual.
_ _ Something strange.
[Bm] _ Come from nothing [G] at all.
_ _ [Em] Well, I saw [Bm] a spaceship just fly by your window.
[E] Did you see [Em] it _
[E] disappear?
_ [A] _ _ _ [Bm] _
Baby, come sit [G] on my wall. _
[A] And [D] read me the story of all. _
_ _ [E] And tell it like you [F#m] used to believe.
At the end of [Em] the century. _ _
[G] It's a change for [D] you and I.
Nothing unusual.
_ [F#m] _ Nothing's changed.
[Bm] _
Just a little older.
[G] That's all.
_ [A] _ _
[Bm] You know when you found me,
there's something I've learned.
[Em] It's cause you feel it [E] when they take it [A] away.
_ _ [D] Hey, hey, hey.
Something [B] unusual.
[F#m] _ Something's [B] changed.
It come from [G] nothing at all.
[E] _ _ [Bm]
But I'm not a miracle.
And you're not a saint.
Just [G] another soldier [A] on a road to [Bm] nowhere.
And baby, come sit on [G] my wall.
_ [A] And read me the story [D] of all.
_ _ _ [Em] And tell it like you used [F#m] to believe.
At the end [A] [Bm] of the century.
_ [G] It's a [B] change for you and [Bm] me.
And baby, come sit on [G] my _ _ [D] wall.
And read [A] me the story [D] _ _
_ _ _ [E] _ [Em] of all.
And tell it like you used to [A] believe.
[F#m] _ _ _ _ _ At the end of [Em] the century.
_ [E] It's a [G]
change [A] for you and _ _
[E] _ _ _ _ [Bm] _ _ _ _
[C#] _ [F#m] _ _ [D] _ [Bm] I. _ _
