Chords for Old Souls ~ Heather Alexander

All right, this next tune is _ written based on, there again,
on the idea of the fairs.
You know, with me, when I travel from fair to fair, _ _
[F#] inevitably I'll meet one person that
makes a real impression on me.
I'm sure a lot of you have done the same thing
when you go to the fairs and stuff.
You'll bump into somebody, _ and you'll start talking.
And you find all these things in common with each other,
and you just keep talking.
You know, all day long, you keep talking.
And if you've got gigs or something, you run off,
you do your gigs, and then you meet again,
you start talking again.
At the end of the day, you're still talking.
_ And inevitably, one of you will follow the other one
back to their encampment, and you'll sit down by the fire,
and you'll start talking.
_ And you know, the fire will die down, and you're still talking.
Four o'clock in the morning, the fire is absolutely dead,
there's nothing going on, you're still talking.
You know, the water truck comes by seven o'clock
in the morning, wetting down the roads, you're still talking.
_ Okay, this is the kind of thing, you sit there,
and you're like, wow, you know, _ have I met you before?
You know, it's like, I swear, I know you somewhere
from somewhere else, some other time,
some other place, something. _
And so that's what this song is about.
This song is about those old friends of yours
that you've never met.

_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ [Bm] She combs bird nests from [A] her dresses,
cross [G]-legged upon the cool floor, _
_ [D] smiling at me as I offer to [E] help.
I feel like we've been [A] here before. _ _ _
_ _ _ [Em] Laughing at [E] death, screaming at fate,
[A] sharing with friends, and it's never too late.
We are old [A] souls with new faces.
[G] Once more we're [D] together [A] again. _
A turn [Bm] of the wheel [G] puts us in different [Em] places,
knowing each other since [E] I don't know when.
Our love [A] is still strong as it ever [D] was then. _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ [Bm] _ Stretched out on the beds, our [A] hearts open wide.
_ _ [G] Talking till night is no [A] more.
_ [Em] [D] Fading to sleep [G] as dawn beckons [A] us onward.
I [Bm] feel like we've been [A] here before. _ _
_ _ _ _ [Em] Shining with light, [B]
thinking as one,
healing [Bm] old wounds and [Em] we're bright as [A] the sun.
We are old souls [G] with new [A] faces.
Once [G] more we're together again. _
A turn of the wheel puts us in different places,
[Em] knowing each other since [A] I don't know when.
Our love is still strong [G] as it ever [D] was then. _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ [Bm] _ We walk hand in hand in [A] the moonlight.
[G] The world is a place we [A] ignore.
_ [A] Living together [G] in dreams of [A] our own,
I feel [Bm] like we've been here before. _
_ _ _ [Em] Shivering with [E] fear, burning [A] above,
blood of [Bm] the clan and [Em] the spirit [A] of love.
We [A] are old souls with new faces.
[G] Once more we're [A] together again.
A turn of the wheel [G] puts us in different [Em] places,
knowing each other since [A] I don't know when.
Our love is still strong as [G] it ever was.
Old [G] souls with new faces.
Once more we're together [A] again.
_ [A] A turn of the wheel puts us in different places,
[Em] knowing each other since I don't know when.
Our [A] love is still [G] strong as it ever _ _ _ was [D] then. _ _ _ _ _ _
