Dido - Day Before We Went to War: chords

         Dm
All the pictures on the wall
     C
The sand lying on the floor
            Dm
The bed upstairs, still unmade
     Dm
The dust float in the light
     C
The people just left
     A#
All laughter and mess
    F/A
Forgetting this and that
            Gm     F C
And rushing back

The front door open
The music still playing in one room
Down the hall
Towels on the floor
And then it's quiet
Just the bees and birds
The summer haze
Of the trees
And the air
Feeds it all
Feeds it all

Chorus:
            Dm
We can all feel it
        C                  A#
Like a light hand on your back
          F/A
Welcoming you
            Dm
We can all feel it
        C                  A#
Like a light hand on your back
          F/A
Welcoming you

    Gm     F       C
The day before we went to war
     C
The day before we went to war
C           Dm
We can all feel it

All the parasols and kids at play
The sea so still and calm
Blue as the cloudless sky
Just the gentle hum
Of the summers goings on
Broken by the sudden rush of two planes
Flying low and fast
Into the sun
Into the sun

Chorus

The day before we went to war
The day before we went to war
We can all feel it

Chorus

The day before we went to war
The day before we went to war
The day before we went to war
