One Day - by Opshop - chords and lyrics





Here's a groovy, mellow song by New Zealand group Opshop.
It's the 3rd single off their 'Second Hand Planet' album.
The chords are near exactly in the right place as I can get them. Correct me if I'm wrong by leaving a comment...




ONE DAY by OPSHOP

(CAPO ON SECOND FRET)

 G                               Am            Em
Absence make her heart grow fonder
               C                       Am        G
While I'm conquering the last frontier
G              Am                 Em
Lately I've found myself wonderin' out loud
C                        Am           G
Wonderin' what I was doin' here
        F                        C                        G
One day you'll understand how much you have me
        F                  C                      G
One day you'll realise we have it easy
           F                  C        
I can't offer you the future
           G
I don't know it myself
    Am             F       G
All I can offer you is me
                    Am                 F
I'm all I can offer you right now

G                              Am             Em
Patience make her heart grow stronger
      C                        Am                    G
Re-assure her she's where I want to be
G                     Am             Em
Never was the grass ever greener
      C                         Am           G
I'm about ready as I'll ever be

        F                        C                        G
One day you'll understand how much you have me
        F                  C                      G
One day you'll realise we have it easy
           F                  C        
I can't offer you the future
           G
I don't know it myself
    Am             F       G
All I can offer you is me
                    Am                 F
I'm all I can offer you right now
        F                        C                        G
One day you'll understand how much you have me
        F                  C                      G
One day you'll realise we have it easy
         F                   C                        G
If an expression of love is what you need to believe
              Am             F        G
All I can offer you is me
                   Am                 F
I'm all I can offer you right now
G                              Am            Em
Absence make her heart grow fonder
                C                      Am         G
While I'm conquering the last frontier

Cyndi Lauper - Time after Time - chords and lyrics




Time After Time - Cyndi Lauper

Em  D       Em    D           Em     D         Em        D
Lyin' in my bed I hear the clock tick and think of you
Em      D      Em  D    Em         D           Em      D
Caught up in circles confusion is nothing new        
G      A       F#m   G        A        F#m
Flash back, warm nights, almost left behind
G     A        F#m     G        A   
Suit case of memories time after

Em    D              Em      D          Em      D    Em   D 
Sometimes you picture me I'm walking too far ahead
Em      D       Em     D        Em   D                 Em        D 
You're calling to me I can't hear what you've said       
        G      A   F#m   G     A     F#m 
Then you say go slow    I fall behind
G     A                F#m       G   
The second hand unwinds  

Chorus
             A                                     Bm       G          A       D
If you're lost you can look and you will find me time after time
          A                             Bm     G           A      D 
If you fall I will catch you I'll be waiting time after time

Em    D              Em      D          Em      D    Em   D  
After my picture fades and darkness has turned to grey
Em    D                 Em         D        Em          D  Em   D  
Watching through windows you're wondering if I'm okay
G      A   F#m    G              A         F#m
Secrets  stolen  from deep inside     
G      A              F#m   G 
The drum beats out of time

Chorus once


        G      A   F#m   G     A     F#m 
Then you say go slow    I fall behind
G     A                F#m       G   
The second hand unwinds
