Hi! Another song from Nerina Pallot's "Fires" album. Used the piano to look the chords
Chords within parentheses () can be played with the keyboard, too. For any corrections,
post me a message. Thanks!
"SOPHIA"
(Nerina Pallot)
Intro: D#-Bb-Gm-G# (2x) {or you can do it with just D#-Bb}
Verse 1:
Cm Eb Bb (Gm-G#)
5 o' clock and a fire escape symphony,
Cm Eb Bb (Gm-G#)
Spilling out across the road and the square,
Cm Eb Bb (Gm-G#)
And the sky's the same as your own, do you think of me?
Cm Eb Bb
Do the parks, and trees, and the leaves, reach you, there?
Refrain 1:
Eb Bbm Ab Abm
After the rain, in the lonely hours he haunts me, calling out,
Bb B Bb
Again and again.
Chorus:
Cm Eb Ab Bb
Sophia, Sophia, I'm burning, I'm burning.
Ab Cm Ab Bb
It's a fire, it's a fire, I cannot put out,
Ab Eb Cm Bb
Sophia, Sophia, I'm learning that some things,
Ab Abm Bb
I can't go without and one of them is him.
(Do the Verse 1 chords)
And now I walk these streets like a stranger in my hometown,
Learn the language, form the words when I speak,
But he changed me, I'm his ghost since he came around,
And now I count the hours and the days in the weeks.
Refrain 2:
Eb
Passion and silence,
Bbm Ab
Every word, every line, a measure,
Abm Bb Eb
It's the science of the soul,
Bbm Ab Abm Bb
B
And his books, they breathe a reason and now I want to know...
(Repeat Chorus)
Bridge:
Eb
And you, with your new born eyes,
Bbm Ab
Have you ever loved a man like I love him?
Eb Bb Ab Bb
Do you hurt but still feel alive, like never before?
Ab Eb Eb (G#-Bb)
Oh, Sophia, Sophia.
Chorus 2:
Cm Eb Ab Bb
Sophia, Sophia, I'm burning, I'm burning.
Ab Cm Ab Bb
It's a fire, it's a fire, I cannot put out,
Ab Eb Cm Bb
Sophia, Sophia, I'm learning that some things,
Ab
I can't go without
Ab Abm Bb Eb
I can't go without him
