Can you remember the moment when you made that decision to write the happiest song imaginable?
Well, you know, I mean it was the summer and I was, you know, just left a group and it was
on the one hand horrible and on the other hand quite funny and quite surreal and, you know,
and I was living next to Hampstead [C#] Heath and the sun was shining and, you know, [F#] I was on my own
completely, absolutely cut, you know, and you leave a [E] band it's like leaving the [A] planet temporarily,
you know, because all your friends, everything, the whole system [F#] is cut dead and you're just
suddenly like, oh my god, absolutely everything [A] is gone.
I want you to [F#m] be the [Bm] strong
[F#m] one
[A] I want the Lord [F#m] up to you
[F#]
[F#m] [D] I [G] need you now, [G] said I [C] need you [G] now
[D] I [G] never [D] want to [G] see you break [E] down
But you do it, [E] you do
Yeah, I mean [A] I embraced an awful lot of stuff which I had been listening [G#] to and I'd listened to for a long time before that
[F#m] and but which had sort of, you know, I was, you know, [A#m] you're constrained, you know, and also you're
writing for a particular [A] person when you're outside the group you're not writing for a
particular person, [F#] you know, you're not making music that fits a brand and fits [G#] a [F#m] personality
you're [E] making, you know, I was making little soundtracks [D] of my own personality, [G] you know, and
the trouble [E] is then having somebody [G] who can fit into that, you know, who can make it [D] work as a song
I never want to see you break [E] down
But you [A] do it, [E] you do
[G] Be stronger, [F#] the strongest
[Em]
Stronger, stronger
[G] Be bold now, [F#] not [Em] harmless
Stronger, stronger
And [C] I need you [G] now
[D]
[C]
[D] [A]
[G] [A]
The two [C#] tunes that I had that I gave you were Yes and You Do, but the whole point for me was that there were two sides of the same [A] coin
there was one up and one down and they were the same chords, it was very [F#] geekily conceptual
No
Yeah, [C#] I broke over my ETF [G#] shot, I mean just simply [A] stupid thing
No, You Do is the same chord as Yes
Well yeah, but in the chorus, yeah that's the point, yeah, so it's one's half [F#m] speed and you know
[F#] I never knew that
Well you don't [A] need to know that
So I'm gonna look [F#m] up to you
So [A] show me stronger, show me [F#m] stronger, show me stronger, show me how [A] strong
Show me stronger, show me you're stronger.
[F#] Show me stronger, [F#m] show me how strong.
[A] You do it the same as yes.
That's mental.
[F#] Maybe you should try singing along.
Very slowly though, very stoned.
[E] [A]
[D#] Geekily conceptual.
Clever.
