Gathering Dust Tab

by David Gray




Once again I lend my poorly trained guitar skills to putting some David
Gray chords out there. If anyone else feels like doing the same, then go
right ahead.

This song is my own personal favourite.


Gathering Dust - David Gray  (From "A Century Ends")

Chords used:

(you'll just have to work out the strumming for yourselves)

            
I got no reason
            
but that I must
           
maybe I feel
                            
like I've been gathering dust
                              
I must leave this harbour for the sea
                                     
I'm too young to settle down and make a home
                                
but I don't know where I'm wanting to be
                           
I just know I have to be there alone

          
Stole my time,
        
all my time
         
stole my time,
           
for you

(the other verses and choruses are the same)

Pale winter sun
is beating the ground
why am I throwing away
the best thing that I've found
my young hearts in tatters and I'm sure
that it will be a long time healing
its so hard to see what I'm doing this for
when loneliness is all that I'm feeling

Stole my time, all my time
spent my time, for you

CHORUS
Now the wind it is blowing
blowing leaves from the trees
I've got no use knowing
that with time it will ease
I don't know where I'm going
hope I get there soon
cos my soul is hollow
as the sorrowful moon
na na na na...

chorus

Oh the night is raining on my weary head
taking my back

See the sun spread wings of gold
as the dawn unfurls
hear the song that the moon sings
to the darkened world
feel the fire lighting
in the bitter cold
its the light that shines
through the windows of your soul
windows of your soul
