Snow Patrol - Chasing Cars Guitar Chords, Lyrics, Tabs & Meanings


I didn't know about this band called Snow Patrol until i heard "Chasing Cars" from them... Mesmerizing, is all i can say about this song.. This song will actually leave you mesmerized for a long time.

Gary Lightbody, Snow Patrol frontman, says it is just the "most pure and open love song ever written." The phrase "Chasing Cars" came from Lightbody's father, with reference to a girl Lightbody was infatuated with,...His father said "You're like a dog chasing a car. You'll never catch it and you just wouldn't know what to do with it if you did."

This indeed puts a lot of meaning into this song, This song became notable as one of the songs that revealed the impact of legal downloads on singles' sales in the UK. Chasing cars is biggest selling single for Snow Patrol till date. Chasing Cars" gained significant popularity in the United States after being featured on the popular medical drama Grey's Anatomy.

I just love this song, and the vocals are just too much for me... The Guitar chords for Chasing cars are pretty simple here, Play it with the track to figure out the strumming pattern of Snow Patrol's Chasing Cars


Snow Patrol - Chasing Cars Guitar Chords, Lyrics, Tabs & Meanings


A              E       D             A
We'll do it all, everything, on our own.
A          E        D         A
We don't need anything, or anyone.
 
    A                  E
If I lay here, if I just lay here
               D                          A
Would you lie with me, and just forget the world.
 
A              E          D            A
I don't quite know how to say how I feel
A              E              D              A
Those three words, I said too much, but not enough.
 
A                      E
If I lay here, if I just lay here
           D                           A
Would you lie with me, and just forget the world.
A                                     E
Forget what we're told, before we get too old
           D                           A
Show me a garden that's burstin' into life.
 
A              E           D               A
Let's waste time, chasing cars, around our heads.
A              E           D              A
I need your grace to remind me, to find my own.
 
A                      E
If I lay here, if I just lay here
               D                         A
Would you lie with me, and just forget the world.
A                                     E
Forget what we're told, before we get too old
           D                           A
Show me a garden that's bursting into life.
 
A                      E
All that I am, all that I ever was 
               D                             A
Is here in your perfect eyes, they're all I can see
A                                 E
I don't know where, confused about how as well
                       D                              A
just know that these things will never change for us at all.
 
A                      E
If I lay here, if I just lay here
               D                      A
Would you lie with me, and just forget the world.

For anyone wanting the basic guitar chords, this page has it. All I wanted was the lyrics, and your site popped up top of my Google search (22 hours after you posted it!).

Better than Lyrics.com!

Thanks!
