Antony And The Johnsons - Hope Theres Someone Chords & Tabs

    ___________________________
   / Antony and The Johnsons  /  I think this is the most beautiful song Antony
  / Hope There's Someone     /  has ever composed! I admire his way of exposing
 / I Am a Bird Now          /  himself so strongly through his singing. This is
/__________________________/  some of the most delicate music I've ever heard!



Key: Ab major
Throughout the song, the piano gradually moves from the high
register to the low register. This can easily transcribed as
simple chords since Antony's playing very freely.



 Verse:
||: Ab | Fm | Eb | Db (-maj7 -6) :||


 Chorus:

 Finale:
In the finale the piano strums the chords on every 16th note,
still in standard 4/4.
Lower the tempo a little bit (from Q=83 bpm to Q=70 bpm).
Just play the repeated line as long as the frontman whishes.
Key: C# minor

 LYRICS
**********
Hope there's someone, who'll take care of me
When I die, will I go?
Hope there's someone, who'll set my heart free
Nice to hold when I'm tired

There's a ghost on the horizon
When I go to bed
How can I fall asleep at night?
How will I rest my head?

Oh, I'm scared of the middle place
Between light and nowhere
I don't want to be the one
Left in there, left in there

There's a man on the horizon
Wish that I'd go to bed
If I fall to his feet tonight
Will allow rest my head

So here's hoping I will not drown
Or paralyze in light
And godsend, I don't want to go
To the seal's watershed

Hope there's someone, who'll take care of me
When I die, will I go?
Hope there's someone, who'll set my heart free
Nice to hold when I'm tired
