Glen Hansard & Marketa Irglova - Falling Slowly

Oscar winner Falling Slowly. Please comment. The following are the lyrics for the song so feel free to sing along.


I don't know you
But I want you
All the more for that
Words fall through me
And always fool me
And I can't react
And games that never amount
To more than they're meant
Will play themselves out

Take this sinking boat and point it home
We've still got time
Raise your hopeful voice you have a choice
You've made it now

Falling slowly, eyes that know me
And I can't go back
Moods that take me and erase me
And I'm painted black
Well you have suffered enough
And warred with yourself
It's time that you won

Take this sinking boat and point it home
We've still got time
Raise your hopeful voice you had a choice
You've made it now
Falling slowly sing your melody
I'll sing along

[jamc011]

Good luck, it's easy and I'm sure you'll remember quickly.

[Rachelevator]

Beautiful. Thanks so much for posting the chords. I looked everywhere on google for them and youtube was my last hope :)

[jamc011]

No problem, I looked everywhere for them too and there weren't any on youtube until now!

[lolapiera]

So great! Thanks for the video!

[kristjannl]

Piano is too loud! but nice job!

[Brichstag]

i am not someone who likes to criticise, but cmon. melody is hard to be heard, woman voice is of out tune, and harmony sometimes is somehow to accurate..

[JackieDeBurg]

The girl/harmony is too loud - we need to hear the melody more.

But good job on the instrumental.

[candykittie]

can't hear neither the guy or the piano..

but from what I can hear, you guys are really good

[chodzacescierwo]

sth is wrong, hmm, everything is wrong?

[TheRealGrimandVader]
