(If you don't really care to hear me ramble, scroll to the bottom for the chords.)
Just real quick I'd like to reflect on the song a bit. Here's a link to the lyrics, if you're curious. Personally, I am one that is all about the lyrics. They make the song. I mean don't get me wrong, the music is what it's all about, the beat, the beauty of it. But I think the lyrics make it better :) The song starts off with a nice piano, just by itself, and soon the singer joins in.
Maybe it's just me, but there's something about a quiet voice and a piano that is super-sincere. Something about it makes it feel like it just gets to my soul.
Anyways, the song kind of talks about how love can be hard and difficult to try for fear of falling or being hurt, but if you're willing to take a chance, they are too.
So basically take chances on love. ♥
But on a side note... make sure they're a good choice ;) Haha, haven't we all had problems with that! I know I have for one. Maybe that's another reason why it kinda gets inside my skin. It kinda reminds me of past relationships (well... relationship, haha. I don't think middle school is a big love life-changer) that I've taken a chance on and that haven't worked out, but I took the jump and I learned.
I think that's the best thing. Yea you can jump, so first you have to decide if you're going to make the leap. Once you do, you have that period of time, however long it may be, that you feel like you're flying. You know, when it all seems unreal, or when that guy you like (or have started to date) tells you all these sweet things or does something for you and you get so excited you just can't hold it in? Haha, yea that :)
And sometimes it may seem like it's the right guy, like you're gonna land right. Land without that pain you get if you fall straight on your feet and it just kills your ankles. (I actually do that a lot >.< it hurts, lemme just say.)
So after making a leap, and you're flying in mid-air, you guessed what's next. You either land on your own two feet or fall. Sometimes you got the right guy, sometimes you don't. Simple as that right? But you don't realize how bad you can fall. Sometimes you just pick yourself up and don't ever look back, but sometimes you fall hard and it stays with you for the rest of your life.
So like the song says:
"Let's start over, don't be afraid 'cause I won't keep track
Let's climb to the top, If you won't look down, I won't look back ."
Let's climb to the top, If you won't look down, I won't look back ."
He's telling this girl to let go of her past, he won't count anything against her and he's ready to make the jump (with her) if she is.
Yea, It's an awesome song :)
There are some variations on the F Chord and I've found one chart that shows both, side by side. The second page at the top shows both F chords. The first one, I'll symbolize by using a plain, capital F. the second one (which is sort of like a C and an F put together) will be symbolized by a miniscule f.
The other most impotant thing is in the Chorus it says,"[Let's start over] don't be afraid". These I will refer to by numbers. What you'll be doing is using one finger to play a note on the A string, playing on different frets. The number I put down is the fret you will play. You're still strumming all the strings throught out the entire song.
