Full song lyrics and chord progression:
(Verse 1)
Em D
Once upon a time, there was a sound,
G Am
A gleaming pitch, we danced around.
Em D
It echoed in our hearts, loud and clear,
G Am
The rhythm was our comfort, drawing near.
(Chorus)
C G
In painted echoes, we find our truth,
Am Em
In the strumming chords and the rhythm’s soothe.
C G
We chase the melody, we chase the light,
Am Em
The gleaming pitch carries us through the night.
(Verse 2)
Em D
Through the hushed whisper, of the silent crowd,
G Am
Our music is our voice, strong and loud.
Em D
With every beat, we pour our soul,
G Am
This gleaming pitch, it fills the hole.
(Chorus)
C G
In painted echoes, we paint our dreams,
Am Em
In the soulful tunes and the rocking screams.
C G
We chase the harmony, we chase the flight,
Am Em
The gleaming pitch guides us to the light.
