Sam Barber – The More I Hope Chords on Piano & Ukulele

These are The More I Hope chords by Sam Barber for Piano and Ukulele.

[Intro]
Em7  D  G  Cadd9  2x

[Verse 1]
Em7          D              
 Hold on, I'm diving in even
G                     Cadd9
 though I know we've just begin
Em7                    D     
 It's all dark when I'm drunk 
             G               
alone, but I feel your breath
               Cadd9
 through the dial of this phone

[Instrument]
Em7  D  G  Cadd9  

[Verse 2]
Em7              D            
 Walked in with a severed head, 
             G         
and now I'm taking every 
      Cadd9
chance I get
       Em7               D  
Just to be the one you think
                 G      Cadd9
 of when you're low

[Chorus]
              Em7    D
And I don't know
            G      Cadd9
Where this goes
             Em7                
But I see a fire on the mountain,
        D               
 and it feels I'm finally
     G        Cadd9
 whole
            Em7    D
The more I hope,
            G     Cadd9
The more I fold
              Em7            
See, I don't need money, dear, 
           D          
I'll just hold you when
       G        Cadd9
 I'm broke

[Instrument]
Em7  D  G  Cadd9   2x

[Verse 3]
Em7        D                  
 Hold on, make this make sense,
     G                  Cadd9
 I'm on my hands and knees again
Em7             D            
 Deep down in my shaken chest,
        G                  
 I just hate myself for the 
   Cadd9
things I ain't said

[Instrument]
Em7  D   G  Cadd9 

[Verse 4]
Em7                 D              
 Walked out with a lock on my mouth,
        G               
 see, I think it all but 
   Cadd9
nothing comes out
Em7                   D  
 I just hope you can read 
                      G  Cadd9
through my mind someday

[Chorus]
              Em7    D
And I don't know
            G      Cadd9
Where this goes
             Em7                
But I see a fire on the mountain,
        D               
 and it feels I'm finally
     G        Cadd9
 whole
            Em7    D
The more I hope,
            G     Cadd9
The more I fold
              Em7            
See, I don't need money, dear, 
           D          
I'll just hold you when
       G        Cadd9

[Bridge]
        Em7                 D  
Are we moving fast like a drunk 
                    G       
ridden cab, or am I dreaming 
        Cadd9
on my own?

[Chorus]
              Em7    D
And I don't know
            G      Cadd9
Where this goes
             Em7                
But I see a fire on the mountain,
        D               
 and it feels I'm finally
     G        Cadd9
 whole
            Em7    D
The more I hope,
            G     Cadd9
The more I fold
              Em7            
See, I don't need money, dear, 
           D          
I'll just hold you when
       G        Cadd9

[Ending]
Em7  D  G  Cadd9  3x
