Daniel Fox Johnston - Your Word - Part 2

from Round 25, Week 3 by Monday Morning 3AM Music Club

/

about

Loved this bed idea from Tommy! I pretty much used his same chord structure but just played it up, up, up because it seemed to give me the energy I needed to make the gymnastics in the chorus work. Little squeaky on that top note, would want to hit that one again for sure.

Also, I put a capo on the 1st fret cause it just felt right to me. Have fun!

lyrics

Someone gave it to me when I was down and out
Just a simple confirmation of my humanity
So now I'm paying forward what I hope to reap 
Tell me, What's the one thing you gotta give away to keep? 

Your word x3
Your word x3
You see words can rip holes
Or build sanctuaries of hope
Its the animal that (makes) promises
They don’t intend to keep

I see a shape on the horizon, it's coming clear
I’ve been all but fantasizing about this coming year
I’ve walked around the world, beheld a lot of pearls
But your oath still grows inside of me

Your word x3
Your word x3
You see words can rip holes
Or build sanctuaries of hope
Its the animal that (makes) promises
They don’t intend to keep

Chords: A-E-B, A-E-B, A-E-B-C#m,
D-A-E, D-A-E, D-A-E, A-E-B
