Berikut lirik dan chord lagu "Ablaze" milik Alanis Morissette:
[Verse]
G C
The first thing that you'll notice is some
Em7 D
separation from each other
G C Em7
Yes, it's a lie, is that we've been
D
believing since time immemorial
G C Em7
There was an apple, there was a snake,
D
there was division
G C Em7
There was a split, there was a conflict in
D G C Em7 D
the fabric of life
[Verse 2]
G C Em7 D
One became two and then everyone was out for themselves
G C Em7
Everyone was pitted against each other
D
conflict ruled the realm
G C Em7
All our devotions and temperaments are
D G
pulled from different wells
C Em7 D
They seem to easily forget we are made of
G C Em7 D
the same cells
[Chorus]
G C Em7 D
To my boy, all that energy so wild
G C Em7 D
All you hues and your blues in equal measure
Em7 D C
Your comings and your goings-away
Em7 D C D
My mission is to keep the light in your eyes
G C Em7 D
ablaze
[Verse 3]
G C Em7
The second thing you'll notice is that often
D G
we think that there's not enough
C Em7
It might feel dark, it might feel lonely and
D G
you'll wonder why you're here
C Em7
You may be overcome with darkness and a
D G
sense of hopelessness
C Em7
But it won't matter if you keep your core
D G C Em7 D
connected to the one-ness
[Chorus 2]
G C Em7 D
To my girl, to your innocence and fire
G C Em7
When you reach out, I am here Hell or High
D
Water
Em7 D C
This nest is never going away
Em7 D C D
My mission is to keep the light in your eyes
G
ablaze
[Bridge]
D Am
And this cord is unbreakable
C G
This pilot light is there in your pocket
D Am
And this bond, beyond unshakeable
C D G C
Even if we all forget, all at the same time,
Em7 D G C Em7 D
If we forget at the same time
[Chorus 3]
G C Em7 D
To my boy, my precious, gentle warrior
G C Em7 D
To your sweetness and your strength in exploring
Em7 D C
May this bond stay with you through all your days
Em7 D C D
My mission is to keep the light in your eyes ablaze
[Kembali ke Chorus 2]
[Outro]
To my boy
G C Em7 D
(First thing that you'll notice is that everything is temporary)
To my girl
G C Em7 D
(Next that you might know is that we will always be a family)
To my boy
G C Em7 D
(My mission is to keep the light in your eyes ablaze)
