FOUR-TWELVE                     SWITCHFOOT *Chords listed at end Here are the chords for Switchfoot’s song "4:12" from their album Oh! Gravity. ~VERSE~ You’ve been having trouble staying asleep You’ve been waking up at 4:12 You roll the voices over in your head Then you try to put them neatly on the shelf You watch the sun rise you saw the darkness had no choice before the dawn With your own eyes and then you broke out laughing from a yawn You said ~CHORUS~ I’m so sorry I’ve been so down I started doubting things could ever turn around And I began to believe that all we are is material It’s nonsensical        ~VERSE 2~ So you walk outside and everything’s new You’re looking at the world with new eyes As if you’d never seen a sky before that’s blue As if you’d never seen a sky in your whole life And then the phone rings as it turns out you’re already late And now you’re wondering was peace just a temporary state ~CHORUS 2~ You’re waiting tables and parking cars and You’ve been selling cellphones at the shopping mall And you began to believe that all you are is material It’s nonsensical ~INTERLUDE~          X[2] ~CHORUS 3~ I’m so sorry I’ve been so down I started doubting things could ever turn around I still can’t believe that all we are And that all of our dreams are nothing more than material ~BRIDGE~ Souls aren’t built of stones    Sticks and bones      Oh   oh   oh   oh      REPEAT THE OH PART 4 TIMES. ~OUTRO~ Souls aren’t built of stone | Souls aren’t built of stone |X[9]                             | Sticks and bones and        | Souls aren’t built of stone *Chords used                                                  e|-----1-----0-----3-----2-----0-----0-----0-----0-----1-----2-----| B|-----1-----1-----0-----3-----0-----2-----0-----2-----1-----3-----| G|-----2-----0-----0-----2-----0-----3-----1-----2-----1-----4-----| D|-----2-----2-----0-----0-----2-----3-----2-----2-----2-----4-----| A|-----3-----3-----2-----x-----2-----0-----2-----0-----2-----2-----| E|-----1-----x-----3-----x-----0-----x-----0-----x-----1-----x-----| ============================================================================= I hope you enjoy this interpretation of "4:12" and that it is easy to follow.

À propos de la chanson

La chanson évoque des moments de doute et de désespoir, où l'on se sent perdu face à la vie et à ses aléas. L'artiste parle de son réveil à une heure tardive, avec des pensées qui le hantent, puis il réalise que la lumière et une nouvelle perspective peuvent changer son regard sur le monde. On y ressent une lutte intérieure entre le matérialisme et la quête de quelque chose de plus profond, une recherche de sens qui va au-delà des choses matérielles. Dans cette réflexion, il est question de renouveau, d’ouverture à l’inconnu et de la prise de conscience que l’âme humaine ne peut se réduire à des éléments physiques. C’est un appel à retrouver de l’espoir et à apprécier la beauté de ce qui nous entoure, même lorsque la routine et les défis du quotidien semblent pesants.
