Amys Song by Switchfoot
Amys Song
The second chord of the intro might be G/F# or D/F# cuz the chord is
not very clear in the original song, but personally I think G sounds better.
Intro:
D G
Amy's gone
D G
And time rolls on
D G D
How far? How fast? How long?
Verse 1:
D G
The last time we saw Amy
D G
She was headed for the shore
D G D G
Fighting off the volatile gray skies
Verse 2:
D G
She said now begins forever
D G
And that no one knows their time
D G
We bid farewell not knowing
D G
That might be our last good-bye
Chorus:
D
Amy was a fighter
F#m7 G2
She cut like Casius Clay
Bbmaj7
She burned like a fire
A7
Despite these rains
D
Where time was a question
F#m7 G2
She only knew one song:
Bbmaj7 A7 D (lead into interlude)
She's singing, "How far, how fast, how long?"
Interlude 1: D D/G D
Verse 3:
D G
Salvation is a fire
D G
In the midnight of the soul
D G D G
It lights up like a can of gasoline
Verse 4:
D G
Yeah, she's a freedom fighter
D G
She's a stand up kind of girl
D G
She's out to start a fire
D G
In a bar code plastic world
Chorus
Interlude 2: D D/G (x4)
Verse 5:
D (G)
When everything stops moving
D (G)
And I stop to catch my breath
D (G)
And ride my train of thought
D (G)
All the way round
Verse 6:
D G
My thoughts return to Amy
D G
And the fire she's begun
D G
She came when we were freezing
D G
And left us burning up
Chorus
Outro: D G (x3) D and fade out
Amy's gone
And time rolls on
How far?
How fast?
How long?
The last time we saw Amy
She was headed for the shore
Fighting off the volatile gray skies
She said now begins forever
And that no one knows their time
We bid farewell not knowing
That might be our last good-bye
Amy was a fighter
She cut like Casius Clay
She burned like a fire
Despite these rains
Where time was a question
She only knew one song
She's singing:
How far? How fast? How long?
Salvation is a fire
In the midnight of the soul
It lights up like a can of gasoline
Yeah, she's a freedom fighter
She's a stand up kind of girl
She's out to start a fire
In a bar code plastic world
Amy was a fighter
She cut like Casius Clay
She burned like a fire
Despite these rains
Where time was a question
She only knew one song
She's singing:
How far? How fast? How long?
When everything stops moving
And I stop to catch my breath
And ride my train of thought
All the way round
My thoughts return to Amy
And the fire she's begun
She came when we were freezing
And left us burning up
Amy was a fighter
She cut like Casius Clay
She burned like a fire
Despite these rains
Where time was a question
She only knew one song
She's singing:
How far? How fast? How long?
The last time we saw Amy...
