Chords and lyrics for Under The Aurora by Counting Crows (key of C).
Verse 1
[F]Here we go [G]again, good morning [Em]radio
[Bm]Believers, if you're [C]listening [D]on the [G]line
[G]The siren [Em]sings for all
The [Bm]telegraph, a [D]backbeat [C]for the [G]times
Verse 2
[G]And in the [Em]underground
The [Bm]underground is [C]printing [D]up the [G]truth
[G]An eye is [Em]watching over [Bm]London
Someone [D]else is [C]watching you
Pre-Chorus
[C]And on the [D]radio, they'll [G]tell you [G/F#]what to [Em]do
A piece of [Am]fire, and toss a match at [D]you
[D]And then everybody sings
Chorus
[C]We are revolving, [G]from night to morning
[D]And I want to [Am]believe in something
[C]Spun out of darkness
[C]Somewhere [G]under the aurora
[D]I try to [Am]believe in one thing
[C]Guess I felt so ashamed to see the people
[G]Crying at a funeral marching in the streets
[D]And where is there a place for me among the millions
[Am]Humming and humming and humming away
[C]If I could make it through the night
Would you [G]see the aurora
[D]I could maybe [Am]believe in something
[C]Oh oh oh ohh[D]
[C]Oh oh oh ohh[D]
[F]Here we go [G]again
Verse 3
[G]All of the [Em]telephones are [Bm]ringing
'cause the [C]king is [D]on the [G]roof
[G]Screaming the [Em]hit for all, the [Bm]passers-by [D]to [C]memorize
[G]Posed in a [Em]black collapsing [Bm]universe of [C]Lycra [D]and [G]Lamé
[G]A sad [Em]reminder of the [Bm]things we fell in [D]love with [C]yesterday
Pre-Chorus
[C]A man on [D]tele tries to [G]tell me [G/F#]what is [Em]real
[G]But it's [Am]alright, I like the way that [D]feels
[D]And everybody sings
Chorus
[C]We are evolving, in [G]night to mornig
[D]And I want to [Am]believe in something
[C]Spun out of darkness
Somewhere [G]under the aurora
[D]If I could [Am]believe in one thing
[C]I guess I felt so ashamed to see the people
[G]Crying at a funeral marching in the streets
[D]And where is there a place for me among the millions
[Am]Humming and humming and humming away
[C]If I could make it through the night
[G]And just see the aurora
[D]I could maybe [Am]believe in this one [C]thing
[C]A smile is brighter than the [G]sun[F]
[C]She signs her dream for [G]everyone[F]
Verse 4
[Dm]She writes a letter to the editors of everything, it says
[G]To all the [Em]sleepless, we are [Bm]dreaming you
From [C]somewhere [D]down the [G]line
[G]The siren [Em]sings of [Bm]occupation, and a [D]future [C]in the [G]mind
[G]The prophet [Em]proffers no [Bm]tomorrows
We [C]should [D]sing more [G]yesterdays
[G]This band is [Em]free for all the [Bm]groovers
But the [D]rest of you can [C]pay
Pre-Chorus
[C]And all the [D]streamers they will [G]tell you [G/F#]where to [Em]go
Say [Am]goodbye, so say [D]goodbye
[D]Most everybody waves
Chorus
[C]We are dissolving, in [G]night to morning
[D]And I want to [Am]believe in something
[C]Strung out on darkness
[G]Somewhere under the aurora
[D]If I could [Am]believe in one thing
[C]Guess I felt so ashamed to see the people
[G]Crying at a funeral marching in the streets
[D]And where is there a place for me among the millions
[Am]Humming and humming and humming away
[C]If I could make it through the night
And just [G]see the aurora
[D]Maybe I could [Am]believe in something
