Freddie Stevenson ~ Blind Architect
Beautiful new song that he s done acoustically on a podcast &
is up on his myspace/reverb nation. It s (unusually for Freddie) written
in standard, meaning that I can actually work it out.
Should be on his 3rd album, hopefully...
Chords
Fsus2 [x87077] or [x87070] Can t quite hear which he s using but I think
the former
C [x32013] for the intro and the first time in each verse, then
[x32010] for the other two times
[x02213]
[022013]
[xx3210]
/ [330010]
[320010]
[x33010]
[076700]
[570700]
A? [570500] (no idea if this is right. It s the same chord that stumped
me in the interlude of Easy Now)
Throughout the song the D string in the C & Gsus4 chords and the G string in
the Fmaj7 are hammered on (middle finer), listen for it & you can hear it.
The Em6 is pulled off to Em every time it s played
by removing the index finger from the B string.
In the intro at the end of ever second bar it s played,
the D string is dropped from the Fsus2 & from the C.
Capo 5
Intro
(x4)
Verse
It s that time of year
When the signs of life reappear
/
And the tide will be coming in soon
We must harvest the past years of the moon
Chorus (same as verse chords)
It s that time of day
When you & I have nothing left to say
We must find a new way to start
Oh it was a blind architect who built the heart
Play intro chords x2
Verse
It s that time of night
When the dead start coming back to life
And the stars burn bright in the gloom
And I am wreathed in these memories of you
Chorus
It s that time again
We must ask the old question
How did we grow so far apart?
Ask the blind architect who built the heart
Bridge
?

Chorus
/
How did we grow so far apart?
/
How did we grow so far apart?
/
How did we grow so far apart?
Ask the blind architect who built the heart
End on C
