Throw It All Away
Brandi Carlile
Capo 4th fret, all chords relative to capo

Note: sometimes D is used instead of Dsus2. I wasn’t overly specific about
the sus chord unless I really heard it out on the album. Happy strumming!

Intro: Dsus2	Bm	Em	Gm

D	              Bm
When you're near me I have no fear 
Em              	Gm	
when I'm untrue you see right through me 
D       	Bm
you know me as deep as the sea goes 
F#m     	A
calm my head whenever the storm blows 

           G    	Dsus2
when the stars, and the moon 
         Bm	     A
and the sky, fall through 

		     G		
I'd throw them all away when I'm hollow 
Bm			D
deep as the sea goes, all I know is 
A		       G      Gm
I would throw it all away...away 

Dsus2	Bm
Em	Gm

Dsus2	        Bm
In my restless hour I'm holding 
     Em         	Gm
the words you say that lay my soul to sleep 
D           Bm
I dream of buildings that burn 
    F#m	               A
the sky turns black I toss and turn 

           G            Dsus2
When the stars, and the moon 
        Bm          A
and the sky, fall through 

		    G
I'd throw them all away when I'm hollow 
Bm		       D
deep as the sea goes, all I know is 
A		      G     Gm
I would throw it all away...away 

Dsus2	           Bm
This love branches out like an oak tree 
Em	               Gm
reach for the sky and roots to the sea 
D	               Bm
so when you're shaken down and broken 
F#m	            A
find some peace of mind in knowing 

		     G
I'd throw them all away when I'm hollow 
Bm			D
deep as the sea goes, all I know is 
A		     G      Gm  D
I would throw it all away...away
