[RachinaWimmer]

Wow, this is wonderful. Thank you for putting the bandcamp version, the audio is a lot better and now I can listen to is while I'm afk.

@tkg47506 I put them in the dooblydoo so I don't have to PM them to people any more. Enjoy! And if you make a video come, make sure to send me a link :)

[hibbshakalaka]

@hibbshakalaka Sure. I've put the lyrics in the dooblydoo, so you can grab them from there.

Hello, I absolutely adore this, I found it through Tianna Weasley and love both versions. Could you please PM me the chords and lyrics? Thanks

[chinareds54]

I just found this song through Tianna (I Speak Tree)'s cover version, and I just had to search to find the original. This song is AMAZING! Great job!

[lauar21]

Firstly: Thank you!

Second: I think for the video I had the capo on the 6th fret but for the recorded version I played it with the capo on 3rd. Or something. I THINK that's the way it went.

I don't remember WHY I did that, but when I play it now I always play it with the capo on 3rd because I've decided that I like the sound better.

Anyway. Yeah. DFTBA!

Hey Laura, great song by the way (obviously since I asked for the chords :D)

One thing I have a question though. I noticed that the mp3 version and this one is a bit different.

Now I know there are obvious differences, but I guess what I'm referring too is the key.

I tried playing the song like in this video, and I had to move the capo to 7th fret. and I think that the mp3 one has no capo.

I know you said to play it anyway I want, but why the difference? Just curious :D

[Anwhistle]

I could use the lyrics.

I tried typing them out... and I got lost at the second part about locks and doors.

[lauar21]

Hey,

Do you want the chords for it, too? Or just the lyrics? I can private message them to you if you want. Just let me know!

[Shashi1005]

[Painfoot]

Just started to listening to the Paper Towns collab album, and this is one of my favorite songs =)

It's very deep and thought provoking, and resonates the themes of Paper Towns very well! And of course I like the music.

[rrrebelxx]

hey there, I stumbled across this on John Green's nerdfighter blog, fantastic!

rated and favorited!

may I pretty pretty pretty please have the chords and lyrics to this? if and when I cover this I will credit you. It's too temptingly fantastic NOT to cover.

:D you don't even need to DFTBA, you are already awesome!

[lauar21]

Hey, thank you so much. I didn't even realize it was in John's blog so that just made my day!

I'll PM you the lyrics and chords, so check your YouTube inbox!

Best wishes!

[tiicklemyfancy]

This is amazing! I'm trying to figure out the chords to this song so I can cover it, I think it's brilliant.

[lauar21]

Thanks so much! If you want, I can PM you what chords I use and the lyrics. Unless of course you want to figure them out for yourself (there's always a certain thrill in doing that). Let me know!

DFTBA,

Laura

[tiicklemyfancy]

That would be great! :D I've become obsessed with this song! aha. I think I've figured out about half of it, but I don't wanna get anything wrong!

[CleverestWitch2188]

I got the songs from the collab CD from doing Hank's challenges and I must say that I LOVE this song. It's amazing and probably one of my favorites of the Paper Towns inspired songs.

You are seriously talented.

<3 Sara <3

[lauar21]

Thank you so much, Sara. I honestly can't tell you how much I appreciate hearing (reading?) that.

DFTBA,

<3 Laura

[StrangerDanger04]

If I haven't said this before, I'll say it again, I'm incredibly jealous of your talent. You are my hero! Keep up the awesome work!

[ShinigamiKiiana]

Amazing, Laura! :'D

I'll keep my fingers crossed in hope that you'll get on the CD. :3

~<3 Kristen!

[lauar21]

Thanks, Kristen!! <3

Laura

[boguspenguin]

Laura, you're brilliant. There's just no other way to put it. You've inspired me to stop thinking about writing a Paper Towns song and actually do it.

I'm so proud to have you as a sister. =)

<3/kris

[lauar21]

Aww, thank you Kris! I can't wait to hear the song you come up with!

[fallofautumndistro]

Lovely song, just sent it to Hank to see if we can use it on the Paper Towns soundtrack CD... might be too late to add new songs though, I'm not sure...

[lauar21]

Wow! Thank you, Alan. That really means a lot!
