Chords for Josh Groban - Stages - (Album Trailer) [EXTRAS]

_ _ _ [Ebm] _ _ _ [Dm] _
This has been an album [C] that I [Db] would have listened to myself
since I was a [Bbm] little kid. _
[Ebm] _ _ [Eb] _ I'm very happy where I'm at at this stage of life.
My face can grow a beard.
[G] _ _ _ _ _ [A] Always in the back of my mind thinking to myself
that theater and musical theater was just in my heart,
that it was something that, gosh,
at one point I want to do [Bb] again.
♪ Can't forget, [F] can't regret, [Gm] I [C] did forget _
[Dm] _ _ [F] _ _ [Bb] _ _ ♪
My parents [Gb] took my brother and I to see shows,
Sunday in the Park with George,
Phantom of the Opera, Les Miserables.
It was the brilliant score and singing
that just knocks your socks off
[A] that made me walk out of each theater
[E] thinking to myself that I wanted to be
[Ab] the person doing that someday.
♪ [Db] If I don't _ [Cm] _ _ [Bbm] _ _
_ _ [Db] _ [Eb] let [Ab] him live ♪
Any song selection for any [Db] album
starts with a list a mile [Cm] long.
You can't sing everything.
You kind of [Ab] have to think about the stuff that's right
for either your age or your voice [Dbm] type.
♪ Les fous-tuiles d'or, les [Gbm] cafés, la [B] _ [E] foule [A] de ma part ♪
[Eb] Almost every song on the record I grew up loving.
And then there are a few that I didn't really
get to know very well growing up
that I got to know through the recording of this [B] album.
♪ Demons will [Dbm] charm you with a [Bbm] smile for a [Ebm] while ♪
♪ But [D] in time ♪
The album was recorded primarily in Los Angeles
[E] and the finishing [Gb] of the hat, so to speak,
was at Abbey Road.
To be able to take those [Em] vocals
and then to experience [A] the brilliance
that only those musicians can bring to [Bb] it,
you know, it's the reward.
[Db] ♪ _ [Ab] Take a look and you'll [Eb] see into [C] your [Db] imagination ♪
Not only did I have the right [Bbm] production team
to do this with, I felt like [Db] there were two people
in Umberto Katika and Bernie Herms
that truly understood the vision for this project.
That's all we need.
[Ebm] Yeah, [Abm] Umberto has engineered or co-produced
most of my past records.
I know [Bm] how great Umberto and I can make [Gbm] music sound.
♪ Over the rainbow, [D] _
_ _ [A] _ bluebirds fly ♪
Bernie has an extraordinary ability
to get just the [Ab] best vocals out of you.
[Db] _ _ _
[Fm] _ _ [Gb] _ _ _ _ _ [Eb]
To now [Db] come back to this [Gb] incredible material
so many years later and at a time that I feel
is really right for me to record the material,
I feel like my voice is in a mature place.
And also, I think my fans have been looking forward
to [C] an album like this for a long time.
[Fm] It's great that I can finally kind of [B] sink my teeth
into these songs that I've wanted to sing
since I was in high school.
[G] ♪ Love [A] only bore _ _
_ _ _ [E] my [D] heart ♪
_ _ [A] _ [D] Ha ha ha ha! _ _
