VERSE:
 D
Brother, my brother
   D                      
I watched you give so much
 G   G Asus4 A
 away
        D                 
And I cried when you stop 
         D
lookin' forward
            Em      Em7 Asus4 A
And started to stray
         G            D     
Like an empty canvas hangin' 
    Bm      Bm Asus4 A
on the wall
            G          
You're not sure what to 
          G
show them
             D           
So you show them nothing 
      Asus4 A
at all

PRE-CHORUS:
                  Bm         
'Cause you're supposed to be 
            A
strong, supposed to be brave
        G                    
'Cause that's the way someone 
    Em
I love should behave
           Bm                
You're supposed to be you and 
      A
not somebody else
             G               
'Cause I've always known more 
       Em             Em7
about you than myself

CHORUS:
Bb                 Asus4     A
  It's hard facing  the truth
       Bb              A
And embracing all the saints 
of my youth

VERSE:
 D
Heavenly sister
                A        
There's nobody safe from 
      G    G Asus4 A
your charms
             D
And all the hearts in your 
wake
    D                   Em 
As lost as the babe in your 
     Em7 Asus4  A
arms
         G               
You can line them up and 
       D
knock them over
    Bm    Bm  Asus4  A
One by one
         G              
But you won't find your 
         G
happiness
        A             Asus4  A
In the warmth of a gun

PRE-CHORUS:
           Bm                 
You're supposed to be patient, 
     A
supposed to be true
        G                      
'Cause that's what I've always 
   Em
expected from you
           Bm                 
You're supposed to be you and 
     A
not somebody else
             G               
'Cause I've always known more 
       Em             Em7 Em
about you than myself

things that I've done
        D                        
And in turn I'll forgive you for 
 D                    Em  Em7 Asus4 A
losing the faith of a son
        G             D     
Like a lonely beacon burning 
    Bm       Bm Asus4 A
in the night
         G                        G
I still know that you're out there
           A               Asus4 A
Somewhere just out of sight

PRE-CHORUS:
                 Bm          
'Cause you're supposed to be 
            A
loving, courageous and wise
        G                     
'Cause that's what I see when 
   Em
I look in your eyes
          Bm                  
You're supposed to be you and 
     A
not anyone else
          G                    
'Cause I trusted you more that

I trusted myself

How to play All The Saints: key, chords and progression

This is the chords of All The Saints by on Piano, Ukulele, Guitar and Keyboard.

All The Saints by Jeff Healey is written in D major (two sharps: F♯, C♯) and moves through 10 chords: D, A, G, Asus4, Em, Em7, Bm, Bb, Dsus2 and Dsus4.

Listen for D – Em – Em7 – Asus4 (I – ii – ii7 – Vsus4 in D major): the song comes back to it again and again. In solfa, that is doh – reh – reh – soh. Once these 4 changes are comfortable, most of the song is done.

Beginner-friendly: almost every chord is an open chord on guitar, so you can play it without a capo or barre chords.
