well i'm supposed to be studying for exams right now so i figured this would be the perfect time to dick around and write this out. the piano chords are posted on ron pope's myspace but this is just a really simple way of playing it on acoustic guitar, in a completely different key. i play it with a capo on the third fret for my voice. intro: mimicks the piano version) verse i drove eleven hundred miles to find a photograph i'd lost it's just a polaroid i used to keep of a girl that i once loved and sleep, it leads to nightmares, as i never can forget so now i'm dreaming of los angeles as the winter closes in said i'm dreaming of los angeles as the winter closes in *play intro chords* and we met seven english girls who asked if we'd like to see God and i'm not one for missed adventures, so i answered with a smile we spent the night on razor's edge, all innocence and sin and now i'm strung out on the bowery as the winter closes in now i'm strung out on the bowery as the winter closes in chorus: and i won't cry if you can't love me like the way it used to feel we had our summer on long island, now there's wounds that never healed and i won't cry if you can't love me like the way it used to feel we had our summer on long island, now there's wounds...that never healed *play intro chords* (for the second set stop at D) (play each chord with one down stroke) i'd paint a picture of my mother, but i can't recall her face she's even far away at midnight, when her laughter haunts my dreams i ain't never been this broken, i've got nothing left to give so now i'm searching for salvation as the winter closes in i said i'm searching for salvation as the winter closes in man i'm searching for salvation as the winter closes in and i won't cry if you can't love me like the way it used to feel we had our summer on long island, now there's wounds that never healed and i won't cry if you can't love me like the way it used to feel we had our summer on long island, now there's wounds that never healed oh oh ohhhhhhhhhhhhh oh oh ohhhhhhhhhh oh oh oh oh ohhhhhhhhhhhhh oh oh ohhhhhhhhhh oh oh oh oh ohhhhhhhhhhhhh oh oh ohhhhhhhhhh oh oh oh oh ohhhhhhhhhhhhh oh oh ohhhhhhhhhh oh oh outro: oh oh ohhhhhhhhhhh oh oh post script: after i post this the chords will probably misplace themselves. im not really sure how to fix that.

À propos de la chanson

La chanson évoque un voyage introspectif au cours duquel le narrateur se remémore des souvenirs désenchantés et des expériences passées de jeunesse. Dans une quête de rédemption, il retrace des moments partagés avec une femme qu'il a aimée, tout en cherchant à faire face à ses douleurs émotionnelles et aux souvenirs enfouis. La rencontre avec des filles anglaises devient une métaphore d'opportunités manquées, alors qu'il navigue entre innocence et réalité amère. Le tout se déroule dans un climat hivernal, symbolisant le froid et la mélancolie qui s'installent dans sa vie, contrastant avec les éclats d'un été idyllique qu'il ne peut plus retrouver. Cette lutte entre espoir et désespoir se reflète dans sa recherche de sens et de salut alors que les jours sombres s'accumulent.
