And It Spread — The Avett Brothers
Chords and lyrics for And It Spread by The Avett Brothers (key of G).
Verse 1
This is transposed from a video I watched after hearing the album version.
I
haven't played it against the album, but it's DEFINITELY how Seth is
playing it in
the video. He uses a pretty random mixture of basic and bar chords, so just
pick
which sounds better/is more comfortable.
Intro
[Em] [C] [G] [Bm]
[C] [D] [G]
[C]There was [D]light in the [G]room.
Then you left and it was through.
Then the frost started in
My toes and fingertips.
[Em]and it [C]spread
[Em]and it [C]spread into my [G]heart.
and it spread
and it spread into my heart.
[C]Then for [D]I don't know how [G]long,
I settled in to doing wrong.
and as the wind fills the sail,
came the thought to hurt myself.
[Em]and it [C]spread
[Em]and it [C]spread into my [G]home.
and it spread
and it spread into my soul.
[D]well [Eb]there [Em]are [C]no [G]lines.
[Bm][Em][C]separating [G]the [Bm]truth from the [C][D]lies.[G]
[C] [D] [G]
[C] [D] [G]
[C]Then you [D]came back from [G]space,
with a brand new laugh and a different face.
You took my hand and held it up,
and shot my arm full of love.
[Em]and it [C]spread
[Em]and it [C]spread into the [G]world
and it spread
and it spread into the world.
[D]well [Eb]there [Em]are [C]no [G]lines.
[Bm][Em][C]separating [G]the [Bm]truth from the [C][D]lies.[G]

Then just play the verse C D G out.
