Oh Land

Next Summer

Oh Land


Tom: Bm

Bm         Em                           Bm                       
  Put me to sleep now and don’t wake me up
                Em                          G
Until time has changed us, fast forward the clock
                A                         G
Now I’m just a resident, I used to be the host
                   A                     Bm
The one that would make you feel at home
                Em              Bm
I’ll imagine a perfect landing 
                Em              G
I’m not pushing hard, nor hanging
               A                
Just silently falling into place 
G                    A
You - where gravity simply takes me

[Chorus:]
B
  Next summer
Em           D
We’ll meet again
    Bm                      F#m/A
And start all over where we last left it
B                  Em          D 
  Next summer I’ll make you forget
    Bm                     F#m/A        B
How painful it feels to be left empty
   G          A         B
I let it go, let it go now
      G          A         Bm
Next summer I’ll chase you down
   G          A       B
So run away, run away now
      G          A         Bm
Next summer I’ll chase you down

Bm              Em                  Bm                       
Reach out of my shoes and out of my head
                   Em                       G
You’re losing your grip, I’m still lying in bed
            A                           G
A number is written in blue ink on your hand
                A                         Bm
The red in your eyes is more prominent
                   Em                      Bm
Conversation will take us around in the park
                Em                  G
Repeating the words in a dead lock
                  A                                 G
It starts to get cold outside and it starts to get dark
                   A
It starts to clear up now

[Chorus:]
B
  Next summer
Em           D
We’ll meet again
    Bm                      F#m/A
And start all over where we last left it
B                  Em          D 
  Next summer I’ll make you forget
    Bm                     F#m/A        B
How painful it feels to be left empty
   G          A         B
I let it go, let it go now
      G          A         Bm
Next summer I’ll chase you down
   G          A       B
So run away, run away now
      G          A         Bm
Next summer I’ll chase you down
