Dramatic Song by Toby Turner
Dramatic Song
no capo.
*You can add a Bb at the end of each verse after the Gm*
**You can also go from the Fm to a quick Abm to Bb. (This actually sounds the best)**
Cm Bb Fm Gm Abm
Cm
This song sounds dramatic
Bb
but I'm bad at writing words.
Fm
If you don't speak English,
Gm
this probably sounds pretty good.
Cm
You'd probably think I'm singing
Bb
bout some pretty serious stuff.
Fm
But in reality, I'm singing 'bout
Gm
the lack of stuff
Cm
i'm singing 'bout. This part's intense.
Bb
And emotional.
Fm
As long as
Gm
you don't understand it.
Cm
Your foreign grandma
Bb
would love this song.
Fm
Please send it to her,
Gm
and she'll probably tell her
Cm
foreign friends about the song her
Bb
grandson or daughter sent her today.
Fm
This song might hit the charts in her country
Gm
if parts sounded like
Cm
Cooooldplayyyyyyy
Bb
...
Fm
If the chorus sounds like
Gm
Coldplllayyyy
Cm
Then I put some
Bb
'La-La-La's in there.
Fm
La la la la la,
Gm (Bb)
la la la la la la la (Coldplay)
Cm
Hopefully your foreign grandma
Bb
listens to this song everyday.
Fm
And if she asks you to
Gm
translate the lyrics, here's what you say:
Cm
"A perfect translation
Bb
does not exist.
Fm
Well, at least,
Gm
not in your language.
Cm
But if you must know,
Bb
well, picture this:
Fm
Fifty billion rainbows,
Gm
and the sun is setting, and the
Cm
moon is setting, also,
Bb
and you're there in a gazebo.
Fm
And then God descends from heaven
Gm
and He gives you a million dollars.
Cm
Take that feelinggggg,
Bb
and put it into a song.
Fm
I could translaaaaaate word by word,
Gm
but that'd take too long.
Cm
And I've got stuff to do grandma.
Bb
I don't have time for this.
Fm
You've gotta trust me grandma,
Gm (Bb)
this freakin' song is brillian......t."
