James Morrison est un chanteur, auteur-compositeur et guitariste britannique né à Rugby le 13 août 1984.  C'est à l'âge de 13 ans que son oncle lui apprend à jouer à la guitare. Il attribue sa voix distincte à une grave crise de la coqueluche qui a failli le tuer lorsqu'il était bébé.  Il enregistre son premier album studio en 2006 : Undiscovered, qui sera plus tard certifié 4 fois disque de Platine en Grande-Bretagne et disque d'Or en France, en Australie, au Danemark, en Allemagne, au Pays-Bas et en Suisse.

There was a time

I had nothing to give
         F                            C
I needed shelter from the storm I was in
                        Am     G
And when it all got too heavy

I'd be lost, so lost without you

Under the stars

At the edge of the sea

There's no one around, No one but you and me

We'd talk for hours

Undiscovered

I've been twisting and turning
                        Am
In a space that's too small
C                                           Am
I've been drawing the line and watching it fall
F                                                   C
You've been closing me in, closing the space in my heart
Am                         F                 C
Watching us fading and watching it all fall apart

Well I can't explain why it's not enough, 'cause I gave it all to you
F                                  Dm
And if you leave me now, oh just leave me now
Am                       C
It's the better thing to do
F
It's time to surrender
Dm
It's been to long pretending

There's no use in trying
           C                F      Dm                      C

C
You pulled me under
              Am
I had to give in
C
Such a beautiful myth
                    Am
That?s breaking my skin
F
Well I'll hide all the bruises
                                C
I'll hide all the damage that?s done
       Am                  F                          C
But I show how I'm feeling until all the feeling has gone

When the pieces don?t fit anymore, pieces don?t fit here anymore

G             E
Ooh don't misunderstand
Am
How I feel
            D
Cause I've tried, yes I've tried
F                                 E
But still I don't know why, no I don't know why

I don't know why...... whyyyyyyyy!

Like I don't belong
Am                                          G
Well, staring through a window standing outside there just to happy to care tonight
F                C        F                C

F                        E                  
I don't wanna be misunderstood
            Am                   C                      Dsus2 D Dsus2 D
I've got to take this chance and make it into something good

[Bridge:]
Dm                   G
Some people say that i'm not worth it
I've made mistakes but nobody's perfect
Guess I'll give it a try

[Chorus:]
         Am                 C              F      F E
I've got one last chance to get myself together
I can't lose no more time it's now or never 
I've got one last chance to get myself together
I can't lose no more time it's now or never
and I'll try to remember who i used to be
I've got one last chance to get myself together

I've got one last chance
That's all I need
One last chance ...


One Last Chance

Em  D  G    Em  D  A
              
Em           D
It's got my name on it 
G              C                Em
And it's just waiting there for me 
            D                   A
I feel the cold run through my veins 
Em                 D
And it's got her shame on it 
G            C             Em
She couldn't say it to my face 
                   D            A
But I won't waste time placing blame 

C                G
I know I'll move on 
   B                        Em         D
I tell myself I'll find me something better 
C        G             B
I'll let go and just forget her 
            C       G               
She was no good for me 
      B                             Em    D
Deep down I know that's the way it has to be so 
C           G                      B
How come I still can't open this letter? 

         Em        D    G
I can't forget her 
              Em    D   A
Really wish I could 

Em              D
There must be a name for it 
G             C                 Em
Whatever this is you've done to me 
           D         A
I'm all twisted up inside 
Em                D
Well who's gonna pay for it? 
G            C               Em
If it's not you I guess it's me 
                       D
You left me with your life
          A
And took mine 

C                G
I know I'll move on 
   B                        Em         D
I tell myself I'll find me something better 
C        G             B
I'll let go and just forget her 
            C       G               
She was no good for me 
      B                             Em    D
Deep down I know that's the way it has to be so 
C           G                      B
How come I still can't open this letter? 

         C         G    D
I can't forget her 
              C     G   D
Really wish I could 

                C   G  B  Em  D  C  G
Really wish I could 
     B
Oh yeah 

C                G
I know I'll move on

I tell myself I'll find me something better 
C        G             B
I'll let go and just forget her 
            C       G               
She was no good for me 
      B                             Em    D
Deep down I know that's the way it has to be so

Em          D
It's got my name on it 
G               C
And it's just waiting there for me

The Letter

A                  G                            A
I was sure, I was born and raised to be my own man 
A                    G                            A
I was so sure I was never going to need a helping hand 
G                                                            A
And she said, trust in your heart and there's no need to understand 
      G                  D
Well just when I thought I had it planned out 

A          G        D          G          A
Whatever I do I'm under the influence of you 
A          G        D          G          A
Whatever I do I'm under the influence of you 

A             G                                    A
I was driving too close to the edge and living dangerously 
A                 G                           A
I felt strange, a warm sensation rising up inside of me 
           G                                            A
Oh like a tidal wave came from nowhere swept me off my feet 
        G         D
Oh but somehow making me complete now 

A          G        D          G          A
Whatever I do I'm under the influence of you 
A          G        D          G          A
Whatever I do I'm under the influence of you 

A                  G                  D         G
Once you've had a taste of it there?s no going back
A                  G                  D         G
Once you've had a taste of it there?s no going back
A                  G                  D         G
Once you've had a taste of it there?s no going back

A          G        D          G          A
Whatever I do I'm under the influence of you 
A          G        D          G          A
Whatever I do I'm under the influence of you

Once When I Was Little

Am
Let me hold you
        C
For the last time
         F
It's the last chance to feel again
        Am
But you broke me
      C             F      Dm
Now I can't feel anything
       Am
When I love you,
        C
It's so untrue
  F
I can't even convince myself
         Am
When I'm speaking,
         C                F    Dm
It's the voice of someone else

      F     G  Am
Oh it tears me up
  F           G          Em
I try to hold on, but it hurts too much
  F         G              Em             F              C
I try to forgive, but it's not enough to make it all okay

          Dm             Am
You can't play on broken strings
          C       G 
You can't feel anything 
          Dm                  Am
That your heart don't want to feel
        C                             G
I can't tell you something that ain't real
       F     
Oh the truth hurts
    Am  
And lies worse
C                 G
How can I give anymore
       Dm                Am       G
When I love you a little less than before

        Am     C
Oh what are we doing
       F
We are turning into dust
        Am           C        F    Dm
Playing house in the ruins of us
        Am               C
Running back through the fire
             F
When there's nothing left to save
          Am               C                        F    Dm
It's like chasing the very last train when it's too late

      F     G  Am
Oh it tears me up
  F           G          Em
I try to hold on, but it hurts too much
  F         G              Em            F               C
I try to forgive, but it's not enough to make it all okay

          Dm             Am
You can't play on broken strings
          C       G
You can't feel anything 
          Dm                  Am
That your heart don't want to feel

I can't tell you something that ain't real

Oh the truth hurts

And lies worse
C                 G
How can I give anymore

When I love you a little less than before

But we're running through the fire
             F
When there's nothing left to save

It's like chasing the very last train
        F                        Dm
When we both know it's too late (too late)

          Dm            Am
You can't play on broken strings
          C       G
You can't feel anything

I can't tell you something that ain't real

Well the truth hurts

And lies worse
C                 G
How can I give anymore
       Dm                Am       G
When I love you a little less than before
       Dm                Am         G
Oh when I love you a little less than before

Please Don't Stop The Rain

F
I see lovers in the streets walking,

without a care.

They're wearing out loud
                       Am     Dm
like there's something in the air
            Bb
Oooooh, and i don't care


F
They're treading lightly

No they, don't sink in

There's no tracks to follow
                 Am        Dm
they don't care where they going
Bb
hmm


Bb
And if they're lucky and they'll,

they'll get to see and if they're

really really lucky they'll
       C C6 C7
get to feel..


Bb                C
And it kicks so hard,
                  Bb
it breaks your bones.
          C
Cuts so deep
              Bb
it hits your soul.
             C
Tears your skin and
                 F Bb C
makes your blood flow.
                       Bb   C
It's better that you know,
              F
That love is hard.


F
Love takes hostages,

gives them pain.

gives someone the power to
         Am        Dm
hurt you again and again
          Bb
oooh, but they don't care


Bb
And if they're lucky and they'll,

they'll get to see and if they're
C
really really lucky they'll

they'll get to feel.
Bb
And if they're, they're truly blessed

and they're get to believe

and if you're dammed, you'll never
                 C C6 C7
let yourself be diseased.


Bb                C
And it kicks so hard,
                  Bb
it breaks your bones.
          C
Cuts so deep
              Bb
it hits your soul.
             C
Tears your skin and
                 F Bb C
makes your blood flow.
                       Bb   C
It's better that you know,
              F
That love is hard.



Hmmmmmmm...



Bb                C
And it kicks so hard,
                  Bb
it breaks your bones.
          C
Cuts so deep
              Bb
it hits your soul.
             C
Tears your skin and
                 F Bb C
makes your blood flow.
                       Bb   C
It's better that you know,


Bb                C
And it kicks so hard,
                  Bb
it breaks your bones.
          C
Cuts so deep
              Bb
it hits your soul.
             C
Tears your skin and
                 F Bb C
makes your blood flow.
                       Bb   C
It's better that you know,
              F     C
That love is hard.


         F   C         F   C
love is hard, love is hard.
           Bb
If it was easy,
                  C       F
it wouldn't mean nothing though!

Love Is Hard

G          G,       Em 
When you lower--- me down
            C, D             G
So deep that I, I can't get out
G                 G,  Em        
And when you're lost----, lost and alone
C                                   D     
Yes, you'd think it was the last place
                      G  
You'd come back for more

              C
If you don't want me to leave
            B
Then don't push me away
              B7
You'd rather blow out the lights
         Em
You can watch it all fade
               A7
But I'm going nowhere

G            G, Em
I'm gonna stay------
                     C
When you just wanna fight
                          D
When you're closing your eyes
                      G          B7
'Cause you don't wanna love me

            Em, A7
I'm gonna stay-------
                       C
You can't push me too far
                        D
There's no space in my heart
                     G
Where I don't wanna love you

G               G,     Em   
And when there's no----, no storm
               C, D              G
Then how can I.... feel the calm?
G                                    G     Em 
If there's nothing, nothing, nothing left to lose
                    C, D
Then what is this feeling
                                  G
That keeps on bringing me back to you

G               G, Em
So I'm gonna stay-------
                     C
When you just wanna fight
                         D
And you're closing your eyes
                       G        B7
'Cause you don't wanna love me

              Em,        A7
So I'm gonna stay, yes I will
                       C
You can't push me too far
                        D
There's no space in my heart
                    G
Where I don't wanna love you

       C
If you asked me to leave
       B
And I walked away
      B7
We'd still be alone
           Em
And we'd still be afraid
           A7
I'm going nowhere

I'm going nowhere

G                   G, Em
'Cause I'm gonna stay-----
                     C
When you just wanna fight
                           D
And there's tears in your eyes
                       G       B7
'Cause you don't wanna love me

            Em, A7
I'm gonna stay-----
                         C
All the tears that I've cried
                      D
I could leave them to dry
                   G
If you don't wanna love me
                       D
I could leave them to dry
                   G
If you don't wanna love me

Why Cry

A                                     E 
Roll into your town and I'm walking around
                                                Fm                        
Got some extra time think I'll throw some money down
                                                     D
And you follow me around, and you're asking for the time

Your asking what I found 
                         A
think I'm gonna rob you blind

maybe it's the tattoo on my arm
        E
that I drew while I was bored waiting tables in new york
Fm                                            D
 a  heart and two flowers intertwined with a vine

Up Here

[Verse 1]
 G                              D
You like New York City in the daytime
 Bm                   A
I like New York City in the nighttime
 G                          D
You say you like sleeping with the air off
Bm                  A
I don't, I need it on
G                  D
You like the light coming through the windows
 Bm                      A
I sleep late, so I just keep 'em all closed
G                  D
You ignore the music on the radio
Bm                 A
I don't, I sing-a-long


[Pre-Chorus]
G               D        Bm             A
I don't ask for you to change, baby no no no

And you don't ask for me to change


[Chorus]
N.C.                     D
Tell me how we're not alike
       Bm               A
But we work so well and we don't even know why
G              D
Funny how the stars crossed right
       Bm                   A
'Cause we work so well and we don't even know why
 G              D
You can call it fire and ice
    Bm                  A
But we work so well and we don't even know why
G              D
We don't even know why, no no
Bm                          A
We don't even know why, no no no


[Post-Chorus]

[Verse 2]
G                        D
Cold outside and you're just in a T-shirt
Bm                   A
I have cold blood even in a sweater
G                         D
You start your night sippin' by the Kilo
Bm                   A
I don't, I know you know


[Pre-Chorus]
G               D        Bm             A
I don't ask for you to change, baby no no no

And you don't ask for me to change

No no no no

[Bridge]
G                          D
Somehow we end up on the same side
Bm                          A
And you wouldn't think that we'd be alright
G                      D            Bm             A
Even our eyes are different colors, but we see fine
G                         D
Somehow we end up on the same side (up on the same side)
Bm                            A
And you wouldn't think that we'd be alright

(Think that we'd be alright)

G                      D            Bm             A

(Oh)Tell me how we're not alike

But we work so well and we don't even know why

('Cause we work so well and we don't even know why, why)
G              D
Funny how the stars crossed right

    D                              Bm7
We never spoke a word, but every thought she had 
                         G     A Asus A
I heard from across the room 
             D                               Bm7
If we were standin' face to face I couldn't find the words 
               G               A Asus A
To say give me one more move 
        G              A             G                   A

Am                              E
There are children standing here,
                              G
Arms outstretched into the sky,
                          D
Tears drying on their face.
              Am
He has been here.
                          E
Brothers lie in shallow graves.
                           G
Fathers lost without a trace.
                           D
A nation blind to their disgrace,
                        Am
Since he's been here.
                    E
And I see no bravery,
 G                  D
No bravery in your eyes anymore.

Only sadness.

(Continue the same chord progression)

Houses burnt beyond repair.
The smell of death is in the air.
A woman weeping in despair says,
He has been here.
Tracer lighting up the sky.
It's another families' turn to die.
A child afraid to even cry out says,
He has been here.

And I see no bravery,
No bravery in your eyes anymore.
Only sadness.

There are children standing here,
Arms outstretched into the sky,
But no one asks the question why,
He has been here.
Old men kneel to accept their fate.
Wives and daughters cut and raped.
A generation drenched in hate.
Says, he has been here.

And I see no bravery,
No bravery in your eyes anymore.
Only sadness.
