Passenger - Whispers

CAPO on 2nd

F - CF - C - F - C - G - Am - F - C

                    F      C
Well I've got open eyes
            F      C
And an open door
         F                C           G           Am
But I don't know what I'm searching for
             F           C          F      C
I should know by now
                 F        C
Well I've a big old heart
         F            C
This I know for sure
         F               C           G       Am
But I don't know what my love is for
             F            C  
I should know by now

F - Am/G - C - F -   F - C - F - C

           F       C
Well I wait in line
              F             C
So I can wait some more
         F          C                   G             Am
'Till I can't remember what I came here for
        F               C
But I can't leave now
                 F            C
'Coz I've a light that shines
          F          C
And a love so pure
        F                C         G            Am
But I don't know what to use them for
             F            C  
I should know by now

F - Am - G - C - F  (repeat four times)

F
Well I spent my money
  G
I lost my friends
     C                       F
I broke my mobile phone
                              G
Three a.m. and I'm drunk as hell
              C                   F
And I'm dancing on my own
                       G                  C                            F
Taxicabs ain't stopping and I don't know my way home
                                  G                 C                     F
Well it's hard to find a reason when all you have is doubts
                      G                                C                          F
Hard to see inside yourself when you can't see your way out
                      G                              C                            F
Hard to find an answer - when the question won't come out
                                    G
(Oh) Everyone's filling me up with noise
   C                                              F
I don't know what they're talking about
                               G
Everyone's filling me up with noise
   C                                              F
I don't know what they're talking about
                               G
Everyone's filling me up with noise
   C                                              F
I don't know what they're talking about

You see, all I need's a whisper in a world that only shouts

F - C - F - C - F - C - G

Rise and Shine (Audio)




If you haven't heard of Benjalu yet, take some time out to enjoy their music. Even better - support them by buying their EP  - "The Battle EP"
Here is my current favourite song of theirs - still trying to figure out the chords, so I'll be back when that's accomplished, but at least the 'hard' work of getting the lyrics typed up will be done...
No copyright infringement intended, so this song can be removed from here on request.

BENJALU - Rise And Shine


Down in (certain) there's a change in tales

Loud on water as the day sets sail

With the new wind, brings a secret to find

A new horizon with an open mind

They may rise and shine

And grow as strong as fishing line

Blow away with the breeze

And some may fall behind

When others (hope and/to hold) to find

Find out what they need, find out what they ne_ed

Oh yeah, have I got the strength to push it over and over again

Oh yeah, have I got the strength to push it over

Strength to push it over again

The longest road where valleys dip and turn

The (stars/styles) ignite with all our lessons learnt

And in this world where I am free to burst

Any idea that'll come to me first

And they may rise and shine

And grow as strong as fishing line

Blow away with the breeze

And some may fall behind

When others (hope and/to hold) and find

Find out what they need, find out what they ne_ed

Oh yeah, have I got the strength to push it over, oh yes, over again

Oh yeah, have I got the strength to push it over

Strength to push it over - over again

Lalalalalalada

Yeah Lalalalalalada - over again

Yeah Lalalalalalada

Em                                C
It's been a long time coming

As you shed a lonesome tear

And now you're in a wonderama

The flame no longer flickers
Em                                C
You're feeling just like a fool
G                                       C
You keep staring into your liquor
G                           C
Wondering what to do
   D
I don't hardly know you

You're drinking whiskey when it should be wine
G                                       C 
You keep looking into that mirror

But to me you're looking really fine

I don't hardly know you
C
   But I'd be willing to show you

I know a way to make you smile
                 Em/D#                      Em/D              A/C#
Just let me whisper things you've never heard before

Let me touch you for a while
