'Driftwood' by Travis

This version is different to the others on the site, and I think it
sounds pretty close to the original. Tell me what you think!


INTRO

 (em  a  em  a)

Verse 1

D             G6     Asus4            A
Everything is open, nothing is set in stone,

D             G6       Asus4          A
Rivers turn to oceans, oceans tide you home,

D                 G6            Asus4             A
Home is where the heart is, but your heart had to roam,

D             G6       Asus4        A
Drifting over bridges, never to return,

A7
Watching bridges burn,

Chorus 1

       D          A        Em
You're driftwood, floating underwater,
              G6
Breaking into pieces, pieces, pieces.
     D          A             Em
Just driftwood, hollow and of no use,
                G6
Waterfalls will find you, bind you, grind you.

Verse 2 (Same chords as verse 1)

Nobody is an island, everyone has to go... (etc)

Then, Pre-chorus 1

       Em                            Asus4   A
And you really didn't think it would happen,
       Em                         Asus4  A
But it really is the end of the line.

Chorus 2

           D   A                 Em
So i'm sorry, that you turned to driftwood,
                G6                         D
But you've been drifting for a long, long time.

Solo

Em-Asus4-A times 3
Then two bars of Em

Then verse 3 (Verse 1 chords again)

Everywhere there's trouble, no place safe to go etc...

Then repeat chorus 1

Then pre-chorus 1,

Then,

         D    A                     Em
So I'm sorry that you've turned to driftwood,
                G6                         D
But you've been drifting for a long, long time,
                Em                         D
But you've been drifting for a long, long time,
              Em                       G6                        D
You've been drifting for a long, long, drifting for a long, long time.


So there you go, a song that sounds great strummed on an acoustic,
even my crappy six-stringer. Oh, and capo... second or third fret.
