Iron

The Golden Age

Woodkid is Yoann Lemoine, previously known for his career as a video director without fault (Yelle, Moby, Katy Perry, and recently Lana Del Rey for &quot;Born to Die&quot;).  The legend says that on a shoot in the USA, Woodkid received, straight from the hands of great American guitarist Richie Havens, a banjo that immediately replaced his piano, at least for a while. Without neglecting the videos (or film, which is part of projects), Woodkid decided to devote himself to music. Indeed, Yoann Lemoine made the video for Iron himself, which features model Agyness Deyn. 

C
  We took the train on Sundays
Cmaj7
  We climbed the highest mountains
C7                              F
  It's like we've seen every part of the planet.


Am
  I said I'd bring you everywhere
Amaj7
  Seems like I kept my promise
D7sus4            G7           C
  That's what you deserve, my friend.


C
  We drew our names in the snow
Cmaj7
  Crossed oceans on a sailboat
C7
  We were two kids that
        F
never wanted to grow old.


Am
  We've played the most dangerous games
Amaj7
  Enjoyed books of Henry Chance
D7sus4          G7             C
  Exchanged the blood from our veins.


C
  We've had women on our knees
Cmaj7
  We've drunk the strongest whiskeys
C7                                 F
  We've lived much more than we expected to live

Am
  Sure, things could have been better
Amaj7
  My friends have started to whisper,
D7sus4          G7            C
  and you have wives and children.

  We were friends on the revert
Cmaj7
  We celebrate life together
C7                                  F
  Something tells me that we won't live forever


Am
  We've seen the stars and the smoke,
Amaj7
  and the sharks and the crows
D7sus4          G7            C
  that's why I miss you, you know?

The Sharks And The Crows

Verse 1 :

Em              D      
Where the light shivers offshore
G                   C
Through the tides of oceans
Em             D            G       
We are shining in the rising sun
C        D              Em
As we are floating in the blue
            G
I am softly watching you
C                 Am               B7
Oh boy your eyes betray what burns inside you

Chorus :

Em
Whatever I feel for you
Bm
You only seem to care about you
C           Am                     Bm
Is there any chance you could see me too?
B7
'Cos I love you
Em
Is there anything I could do
Bm
Just to get some attention from you?
C                Am                 Bm
In the waves I've lost every trace of you
B7
Oh where are you?

Verse 2 :

Em          D
After all I drifted ashore
G                     C
Through the streams of oceans
Em       D            G
Whispers wasted in the sand
C         D             Em
As we were dancing in the blue
             G
I was synchronized with you
C                   Am            B7
But now the sound of love is out of tune

Chorus :

Em
Whatever I feel for you

 Where innocence is burned in flames
Gm                    Cm
 A million mile from home i'm walking ahead
F                        D
 I'm frozen to the bones I am
Gm                Cm
  A soldier on my own I don't know the way

 The thunder of the drums dictates
Gm                  Cm
  The rhythm of the falls the number of deaths
F                       D
 The rising of the horns ahead

  From the dawn of time to the end of days

 I'm frozen to the bones I am

Run Boy Run

Em D Bm C x 2

Em                          D
What are the words that I'm supposed to say?

Bm                                   C
Your white skin, swirling fireflies.

Em                             D
Darkness has surrounded Baltimore bay.

Bm                                    C
Why don't you open your blue eyes?

Em                            D
Are they things that water can't wash away?

G                                       C
How can your absence leave no trace?

Em                        D
As I let you sink in Baltimore bay.

G                            C
I drown myself deep in disgrace.

Em D G C x2 

What is the price, am I supposed to pay?
For all the things I try to hide?
What is my fate, am I supposed to pray?
That trouble's gone with the sunlight?

Fm E  A D
A warm sun rises and ignites the bay.
I come back home and start to cry
I'll never come back to Baltimore bay.
Try to forget the fireflies.
What are the words that I'm supposed to say?
If someone knew about this lie?
If your body rises to the surface?
Through the silence of fireflies...

Baltimore's Fireflies

"Woodkid" ist ein französischer Musiker und wird als Ausnahmetalent gefeiert. Sein Debütalbum "The Golden Age" enthält  den Titel "Run boy run", der für eine Werbekampagne 10/2013 des Mobilfunkunternehmens "Vodafone" verwendet wurde. Das einprägsame Lied und das Werbevideo bedingen sich in Ihrer Wirkung dabei gegenseitig, die visuelle Umsetzung des schnellen Beats und des Grundthemas "Laufen bzw. Weglaufen" wird kongenial durch rasante Spezialeffekte unterstützt. Weder die Bilder noch der Song gehen einem aus dem Kopf.  Read more on Last.fm.

        that I should have been home yesterday, yesterday.

School Friends

Verse 1:
G                                    Em        G        Em
There was a girl who lived in London town.
G                                 Em                   G      Em
The scenes and sounds, they would only bring her down
C                                   D
She had polkadots and rubies in her dreams,
C                   D
French fantasies on cinema screens...
        C             G/B    Am     G
And she knew from the finish to the start
C      G/B      Am   G
It was bound to fall apart
C         G/B     Am   Em
Thanks to Cupid's lazy dart.
Em                                D
Wouldn't it be sweet if she could die from a broken heart?

G     Em      G      Em

Verse 2: (the same chords)
There was a boy who lived inside his head.
He couldn't face the world, so he turned his back instead.
He couldn't see in front of his eyes;
His fantasies of outlaws had him hypnotised...

And he knew from the finish to the start
It was bound to fall apart
Thanks to Cupid's lazy dart.                        F
Wouldn't it be sweet if he could die from a broken heart?

   C              G           F
Behold his golden wings
       C              G         F
And behold his bronze bow.
                 C             G         F
Can you hear his silver arrows sing?
       C               G     
As his gaylied favours glow.

(then go back to the normal verse bit)

There was a boy and girl who fell in love:
They both were in love with the stars and sky above,
Cinderella, cigarettes and scenes from the past
Were chasing them too fast for this love to ever last...

And they knew from the finish to the start
It was bound to fall apart
Thanks to Cupid's lazy dart.                         F
Wouldn't it be sweet if they could die from a broken heart? 

C   G    F    C    G

Repeat F  C  G until the end. End on G.

Arrows Of Eros

    Am              C                F             C
Somewhere along the lines, we stopped seeing eye to eye

You were staying out all night and I had enough

       F                   C            G
Summer nights and the Libertines, never growing up
Am             C          F                 C
I'll take with me the polaroids and the memories
        F              C                G
But you know I'm gonna leave behind the worst of us

It Ain't Me

Am
There's a sadness all around us
          F                         C
There are words we're too afraid to say
                                        Am
The things that I thought would last forever
    F              G
Are changing every day

          Am
There's a hunger can't be satisfied
        F                       C
And the streets are filled with rage
C                       Am
It's time to dig deep inside ourselves
F                       G
And face the life we've made

Am
It's gonna take two of us
C                           Am
Ijust can't do it all on my own
F				  C
I see the day gettin' brighter
G                    F
Hold me a little bit tighter

C                      Am      F
Out of the darkness in hand in hand
     Am               F        G
Baby together we will make our stand
C                             Am      F
Reach out and touch me we can win somehow
       Am              F                G
I know there's nothing that can stop us now
F              Am                 G   C
Oh, baby, come with me out of the darkness
