Throw The Fear

Tom Rosenthal


Tom: C

G           Fmaj7      C           Am
I'll be the one at the foot of the mountain
D                 Dm                   Dm7
Shouting upwards, will you remember my name?
G             Fmaj7        C         Am
Attended your birth on the dark of a Tuesday
D                             Dm                 Dm7
I'll tell you something, I'll never be quite the same

G              Fmaj7         C            Am
Welcome to the world, it's a pretty funky mess, love
      D                                     Dm             Dm7
Where boys think they are gods but they are nothing of the sort
   G                  Fmaj7            C             Am
So rise and fight and punch 'til their ears hear the truth, love
   D                          Dm                   Dm7
Or get your beds together and just build a massive fort

[Chorus]
C                                                        Am
  Throw the fear, throw the fear, let the day become the year
       Am                        G              C
You're alive, I'm alive, we're a-la-la-la-la-la-live!
C                                               Am
  If you go, if you go, take all the heart with you
     Am                        G             C
History, is all gone, make the new, make the new

G Fmaj7 C Am D x2 Dm Dm7

[Verse 2]
G          Fmaj7      C       Am
Under your skin is an unknown power
D                           Dm             Dm7
There's not a man who could match a mighty dame
   G                Fmaj7           C              Am
He won't solve your problems in the minutes or the hours

D                         Dm               Dm7
Build your own castle and build it in your name

  G        Fmaj7   C       Am
Importance of just keeping-going

D                 Dm               Dm7
Perseverance will be your greatest friend

G                 Fmaj7      C            Am
Don't die before you're dead, keep watering the plants, love
D               Dm              Dm7
In the end, the end is just the end

[Chorus]
C                                                        Am
  Throw the fear, throw the fear, let the day become the year
       Am                        G              C
You're alive, I'm alive, we're a-la-la-la-la-la-live!
C                                               Am
  If you go, if you go, take all the heart with you
     Am                        G             C
History, is all gone, make the new, make the new


G Fmaj7 C Am D x2 Dm Dm7

[Verse 3]
G           Fmaj7      C           Am
I'll be the one at the base of the tall tree

D              Dm            Dm7
Loving you for all my lonely life

  G            Fmaj7        C            Am
A burst of the light in the heart of the darkness
D             Dm             Dm7
Take it on, enjoy the big surprise

[Chorus]
C                                                        Am
  Throw the fear, throw the fear, let the day become the year
       Am                        G              C
You're alive, I'm alive, we're a-la-la-la-la-la-live!
C                                               Am
  If you go, if you go, take all the heart with you
     Am                        G             C
History, is all gone, make the new, make the new
