*Verse Phrase A*
This love it is a distant star,
Guiding us home wherever we are.
*Verse Phrase B*
This love it is a burning sun,
Shining a light on the things that we’ve done.
A Bm
I tried to speak to you every day,
A D (Accelerando)
But each word we spoke the wind blew away.

Could these walls come crumbling down?

I want to feel my feet on the ground
G D A
And leave behind this prison we share.
Bm A
Step in-to the open
*Verse Figure A*
Air.
*Verse Figure A*
How did we let it come to this?
What weve just tasted we somehow still miss.
A Bm
How will it feel when this day is done;
A D
And can we keep what weve only begun?
G D A
And now these walls come crumbling down,
G D A
And I can feel my feet on the ground.
G D A
Can we carry this love that we share
Bm A D G
In-to the open air?

Into the open air

* Verse Phrase A*
Air
*Conclusion*
This love, it is a burning sun.
*Notes and Notation*
*h: hammer on*
*The G chord MUST be played with the ring finger on the low E string and the pinky on
the high E. Use your index finger to fret the various G figures*.
*Yes, the phrase figures A and B double as the intro and the conclusions.*
*Do not be too concerned with strum patterns; yes, this does have a lot of heavy,
triplet strumming at a very fast tempo, but you can slow it down and strum it however
you want.*
*For those of you who wish to challenge yourself, the original recording uses the barre
fashion of these chords, namely the A, G, and D chords; I included the barre fingerings
in the chord section above. The individual Verse Phrases A and B are not played in barre
fashion, and are played as they appear in the diagrams.*
*Adagio Leggero: Slow and delicate.*
*Allegro Con Brio: Fast, with heart.*
*A tempo: return to the previous tempo.*
*Practice, practice, practice. The phrases are hard, and they will take time. Listen to
the recording to get the time just right. *
*Learn Me Right, by Mumford and Sons, featuring Birdy, should be done soon.*
*If you would like to request a tab to a primarily acoustic song, send me a hit on my profile.*
The pinky should go on the fifth fret in the G chord, you can distinctly hear that high A in the recording. In turn, the moving part is played as follows:
A bit of a finger stretcher but I believe it allows for the correct style.
