Chords for Grace Davies ft Paloma Faith - singing Roots (The X Factor UK)

[G] We're now gonna [C#] have Grace doing a duet with [E] Paloma Faith.
And she's singing [D] _ [B] one of her original [E] songs, Roots.
_ _ [Cm] For my duet, I'm gonna sing [G] Roots,
which is my original song I sung in my first [G] audition.
♪ I don't wanna be found [Em] out.
♪
Roots is about me moving [C] from my hometown
into a house [G] where I could expand in my [C] music. _ _ _
_ I was sat in my living room writing this song
and I was thinking, okay, look where you are.
You're now gigging in new places.
You're getting your music out there.
Like [G] this could be a new start.
[C] And that's why it's an emotional song for me
because it's my [A] journey. _ _ _
_ How are you?
[B] I definitely did not think when I wrote that song
that I'd be singing it in the final with [A] Paloma Faith. _ _ _
_ I'm just happy to sing with you [C#] anyway,
but like for you to do one of my own songs,
I feel so honored, like that's so [A] amazing.
Well, I really believe in you,
so I'm looking forward to it.
She's dead quirky [B] and she knows who she wants to be.
And I think that's something to take [C#] inspiration from.
[A] See you in the weekend. _
[F#m] I'm so excited about this duet with Paloma
and I [E] just can't wait to get to the studio
and start rehearsing.
_ So the duet, have you met Paloma yet?
Yes, [D#m] she's hilarious, like bonkers.
[C#] And I was like, me too, so.
Performing this song in the [E] final is the biggest,
the biggest [C#] proof that I've done the right thing.
It's just given me massive belief in myself.
And so now I'm here,
she's got to take the [E] opportunity with both hands.
Roots, it's my favorite song that I've written.
It means the [B] most to me.
He's very special.

Oh, Grace, that song tears my heart out!
That was a lovely moment, how did that feel?
That was just amazing, I think, _
_ _ that song is the perfect way to sort of
block out my experience, and just thank you so much,
and thank you to Paloma, it's really incredible.
It was your first song, could be your last song,
could be your winning single,
Paloma, what do you wanna say?
It's such a beautiful song, isn't it?
I'm so grateful, I feel _ honoured
that she let me sing it with her,
and [B] she's such an amazing talent,
[D#] such a proper, genuine artist,
[B] to the point where she was micromanaging every second [N] thing,
and I was like, yeah, I know what that's like.
She was like, could you just walk to that bit?
And I was like, all right, Grace!
But I was like, I would do the same thing,
and that's why she deserves to win,
because she is a proper, genuine artist.
