Million Pieces (Kissin' Your Cares Goodbye) - NewsBoys (Thrive)
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
[4/4] (Each period is a beat plus the name of the chord played.)
INTRO:
|...|...|...|...|...|...|...|...|
CHORUS:
| . . .|
They all fall
| . . .| . . .|
Like a million r a i n d r o p s
|. . . |. . .|
Falling from a blue sky
| . . .|...|...|
Kissin' your cares goodbye
| . . .|
They all fall
| . . .|. . .|
Like a million p i e c e s
| . . .| . . .|
A tickertape parade high
| . . .|...|...| .
And now you're free to fly
VERSE 1:
. .| . . . | .
Carryin' a millstone malaise
. . | . . .| .
It's been pulling down your gaze
. . | .
You pound the pavement
. . | . .|
It don't give or care
| . . . | .
This weight ain't yours to bear
. . | . . . | .
Why you holdin' grudges in old jars?
. . | . . .| .
Why you wanna show off all your scars?
. . | . . . | . .
What's it gonna take to lay a few burdens down?
. | . . .|
It's a beautiful sound
CHORUS
VERSE 2:
. . | . . . | .
When that muffled sigh
. . | . .. | .
Says your barely getting by
. .| . . . | . . .
Cut your burdens loose and just simplify
| .. . | .
S i m p l i f y
. . | . .. | .
This is not your floor
. .| . . . | .
You're going higher than before
. .| .
Drop the weight now
. . | . . .
Wait for the lookout guide
| . . .|
Look outside
CHORUS (At the end, do not go to A, instead go to the bridge)
BRIDGE:
|.. . | . . . | . .
You've gotta lay that burden down
. | . . . | . .
You've gotta lay that burden down
. | . . . | .. .
It's time to leave your burdens in a pyre
| . . | . .
Set a bonfire
. | . . . | . .
Cause when you lay your burdens down
. | . . . |
When you drop them burdens
| . . .|
What a free-fall
. . .|
What a thrill
| . . .|
Bury them all
| . . |
In a landfill
