Nick Howard - When The Lights Go Up chords
Highlighted Show chord diagrams
So this song is fairly easy. The chords are basic and beginners shouldn't have a problem playing it! (: In the studio version they added a F# in the verse but Nick doesn't play it live, so an alternative would be just playing the A a bar longer, as Nick does it live (: I hope that makes sense & have fun! -Sally INTRO: G D A e|-----3-2~-2-0~-----| B|-3-3-----------3-2~| G|-------------------| D|-------------------| A|-------------------| E|-------------------| e|-----3-2~-2-0~-----| B|---3-----------3-3-| G|-------------------| D|-------------------| A|-------------------| E|-------------------| VERSE: Bm G A (F#) Walking on a tightrope with my back against the wall I really want to let you in but I'm scared in case I fall I'm staring into emptiness 'cos it's easier to see Just draw back the curtains and turn up the lights and you'll see [ Tab from: http://www.guitaretab.com/n/nick-howard/334309.html ] CHORUS: G D When the lights go up A I can be you, I can be me G D When the lights go up A I can be free I can be free REPEAT INTRO G D A VERSE: Just when you think nobody's listening Everybody knows your name And when you step into the sunshine life will never be the same well this time you'll forget your lonliness and then you'll start to shine I'm starting to see with a new pair of eyes I'm alive CHORUS: When the lights go up I can be you, I can be me When the lights go up I can be free When the lights go up I can be you, I can be me I can be anything I want to I can be free BRIDGE: Bm As I look out tonight at a sea of the faces G I've dreamed of living my life just like this D A I've finally found a place on earth to breathe Bm I'm pinching myself so that I could be certain G My heart starts to skip as they draw back the curtains D Just look at me now A Look at me now I'm free CHORUS: When the lights go up I can be you, I can be me When the lights go up I can be free  |
