Imogen Heap with Urbanspecies - Blanket chords
Start Jamming...
[N] The world is cold [G] and the river is my focus
[Am] Emotionless this city life
[F] Cruel it is, it clouds my eye
[G] The dark, the dark shades on my day
I live [D] inside this black
[C]
[F] Locked [Em] up [Am] inside my metal cage
[F] Always tense and [G] filled with [F] rain
Above [G] the concrete fields
Below with you I [D] wanna go
Wanna go, wanna go
[Am] I see only what I wanna see
[F] I'll be only who I wanna be
Yeah, [Em] that night,
[G] yeah that night
My blanket covers [D] me, covers [C] me
[Am] Dancing when [A] I was party poppin' breaking on a lino
[Am] Traded in my lino for a pad [C] and a pyro
[F] I used to stand in line just so I'd talk beside my gyro
But now my [Dm] hands are meeting [F] in the best way that I know
[Em] [G] And the beats they go boom
The music I consume to escape the tomb and gloom
[A] See these are melodies that key [D] realities obey
But what happens when the record's done and start to fade away
[Am] Alone within myself again
And I'm alone
[F] I try to fade away my pain
[G] The dirty gray surrounding me round
And now I [A] hear no sound
I hear no [Dm] sound, I can hear no sound
You know I feel like Melie Mel [Am] from way back in the days
As I wonder how I keep from going under
I got [F] trouble in my mind, like my name was Chuck D
And like Marvin Gaye it [Dm] makes me wanna [F] holla
[Em] But when the music hits me I can feel [G] no pain
That's why I gotta put you on the game, in the game
I take [Am] the needle off the techniques and I put it in my vein
All my [D] troubles get crushed [G] as the rust hits my brain
[Am] And the way I see only what I wanna see
[F] I'll be only who I wanna be
[Em] Yeah, yeah, [G] yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
My black [Am] hair covers me
[Dm] And the way I see only what I wanna see
Well [Am] you are my [A] living [Am] world
[F]
You are my living world
[Dm] [G] Well you are, you are, you are
My only living world
[D] Check the vibe, yo, it's time I bring it back
And [A] some of the streets, it's 9 to 9
And you know we on track, make call
I see [Am] only what I wanna see
[F] I'll be only who I wanna be
[G] Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, [Em] [G]
yeah
My black [F]
[A] [G]
hair [F] [Am] [G] covers
[Dm] me
[Am]
[Em] Yeah, [A] yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
[G]
