DIVE-ED SHEERAN
OH MAYBE IM CAME ON TOO STRONG
MAYBE I WAITED TOO LONG
MAYBE I PLAYED MY CARDS WRONG
OHH JUST A LITTLE BIT WRONG
BABY, I APOLOGISE FOR IT
PRE-CHORUS:
I COULD FALL OR I COULD FLY
HERE IN YOUR AEROPLANE
I COULD LIVE, I COULD DIE HANGING ON THE WORD YOU SAY
IVE BEEN KNOWN TO GIVE MY ALL
AND JUMPING IN HARDER THAN TEN THOUSAND ROCKS ON THE LAKE
CHORUS:
SO DONT CALL ME BABY
UNLESS YOU MEAN IT
DONT TELL ME YOU NEED ME
IF YOU DONT BELIEVE IT
SO LET ME KNOW THE TRUTH
BEFORE I DIVE RIGHT INTO YOU
YOURE A MYSTERY
I HAVE TRAVELLED THE WORLD
THERES NO OTHER GIRL LIKE YOU
NO ONE
WHATS YOUR HISTORY?
DO YOU HAVE A TENDENCY TO LEAD SOME PEOPLE ON?
CAUSE I HEARD YOU DO
BACK TO PRE-CHORUS
AND LAY AWAKE EVERYDAY
DONT KNOW HOW MUCH I CAN TAKE
BACK TO CHORUS
"New Perspective"
I feel the salty waves come in
I feel them crash against my skin
And I smile as I respire because I know they'll never win
There's a haze above my TV
That changes everything I see
And maybe if I continue watching
I'll lose the traits that worry me
Can we fast-forward 'til you go down on me?
Stop there and let me correct it
I wanna live a life from a new perspective
You come along because I love your face
And I'll admire your expensive taste
And who cares divine intervention
I wanna be praised from a new perspective
But leaving now would be a good idea
So catch me up on getting out of here
Can we fast-forward 'til you go down on me?
Taking everything for granted but we still respect the time
We move along with some new passion knowing everything
is fine
And I would wait and watch the hours fall in a hundred
separate lines
But I regain repose and wonder how I ended up inside
Can we fast-forward 'til you go down on me?
Stop there and let me correct it
I wanna live a life from a new perspective
You come along because I love your face
And I'll admire your expensive taste
And who cares divine intervention
I wanna be praised from a new perspective
But leaving now would be a good idea
So catch me up on getting out of here
Catch me up I'm getting out of here
More to the point, I need to show
How much I can come and go
Other plans fell through
And put a heavy load on you
I know there's no more that need be said
When I'm inching through your bed
Take a look around instead and watch me go
Stop there and let me correct it
I wanna live a life from a new perspective
You come along because I love your face
And I'll admire your expensive taste
And who cares divine intervention
I wanna be praised from a new perspective
But leaving now would be a good idea
So catch me up on getting out of here
It's not fair, just let me perfect it
Don't wanna live a life that was comprehensive
'Cause seeing clear would be a bad idea
Now catch me up on getting out of here
So catch me up I'm getting out of here
"I Write Sins Not Tragedies"
Oh, well, imagine,
As I'm pacing the pews in a church corridor,
And I can't help but to hear
No, I can't help but to hear an exchanging of words,
"What a beautiful wedding! What a beautiful wedding,"
says a bridesmaid to the waiter,
"And, yes, but what a shame, what a shame the poor
groom's bride is a whore."
I chime in with a
"Haven't you people ever heard of closing a goddamn
door?!"
No, it's much better to face these kinds of things
With a sense of poise and rationality.
I chime in,
"Haven't you people ever heard of closing a goddamn
door?!"
No, it's much better to face these kinds of things
With a sense of...
Oh, well, in fact,
Well, I'll look at it this way,
I mean technically our marriage is saved,
Well, this calls for a toast.
So, pour the champagne.
Oh, well, in fact,
Well, I'll look at it this way,

I chime in,
"Haven't you people ever heard of closing a goddamn

No, it's much better to face these kinds of things
With a sense of poise and rationality again
I chime in,
"Haven't you people ever heard of closing a goddamn

No, it's much better to face these kinds of things
With a sense of poise and rationality.

"LA Devotee"
You got two black eyes from loving too hard
And a black car that matches your blackest soul
I wouldn't change ya, oh-oh
Wouldn't ever try to make you leave, no-o
Oh the neon coast was your sign
And the Midwest wind with Pisces rising
Wouldn't change ya, oh-oh
Wouldn't ever try to make you leave, no-o
Static palms melt your vibe
Midnight whisperings
The black magic of Mulholland Drive
Swimming pools under desert skies
Drinking white wine in the blushing light
Just another LA Devotee
Sunsets on the evil eye
Invisible to the Hollywood shrine
Always on the hunt for a little more time
Just another LA Devotee
Just another, just another, uh oh
Just another, just another, uh oh
Just another, just another, uh oh
Just another LA Devotee
You got bleached out eyes from the valley sand
And the black tar palms keep weeping your name
I couldn't change ya, oh-oh
Couldn't ever try to make you see, no-o
The high rise lights read your rights
And a downtown storm with Aries rising
Couldn't change ya, oh-oh
Couldn't ever try to make you see, no-o
Static palms melt your vibe
Midnight whisperings
The black magic of Mulholland Drive
Swimming pools under desert skies
Drinking white wine in the blushing light
Just another LA Devotee
Sunsets on the evil eye
Invisible to the Hollywood shrine
Always on the hunt for a little more time
Just another LA Devotee
Just another, just another, uh oh
Just another, just another, uh oh
Just another, just another, uh oh
Just another LA Devotee
LA Devotee
LA Devotee
LA Devotee
LA Devotee
The black magic of Mulholland Drive
Swimming pools under desert skies
Drinking white wine in the blushing light
Just another LA Devotee
Sunsets on the evil eye
Invisible to the Hollywood shrine
Always on the hunt for a little more time
Just another LA Devotee
Just another, just another, uh oh
Just another, just another, uh oh
Just another, just another, uh oh
Just another LA Devotee
"Nancy Mulligan"
I was twenty four years old
When I met the woman I would call my own
Twenty two grand kids now growing old
In the house that your brother bought ya
On the summer day when I proposed
I made that wedding ring from dentist gold
And I asked her father but her daddy said, "No
You can't marry my daughter"
She and I went on the run
Don't care about religion
I'm gonna marry the woman I love
Down by the Wexford border
She was Nancy Mulligan
And I was William Sheeran
She took my name and then we were one
Down by the Wexford border
Well, I met her at Guy's in the second world war
And she was working on a soldier's ward
Never had I seen such beauty before
The moment that I saw her
Nancy was my yellow rose
And we got married wearing borrowed clothes
We got eight children now growing old
Five sons and three daughters
She and I went on the run
Don't care about religion
I'm gonna marry the woman I love
Down by the Wexford border
She was Nancy Mulligan
And I was William Sheeran
She took my name and then we were one
Down by the Wexford border
From her snow white streak in her jet black hair
Over sixty years I've been loving her
Now we're sat by the fire, in our old armchairs
You know Nancy I adore ya
From a farm boy born near Belfast town
I never worried about the king and crown
Cause I found my heart upon the southern ground
There's no difference, I assure ya
She and I went on the run
Don't care about religion
I'm gonna marry the woman I love
Down by the Wexford border
She was Nancy Mulligan
And I was William Sheeran
She took my name and then we were one
Down by the Wexford border
"Barcelona"
Well get up up on the dancefloor tonight
I've got two left feet and a bottle of red wine
Making me feel like the beat and the bassline
Are in my blood, both hands upon her waistline
Get on up baby dance to the rhythm of the music
Don't care what the DJ chooses
Get lost in the rhythm of me
Place don't close until we wanna leave it
You and I we're flying on an aeroplane tonight
We're going, somewhere where the sun is
shining bright
Just close your eyes, and let's pretend we're
dancing in the street
In Barcelona
Barcelona
Barcelona
Barcelona
Well get up up on the dancefloor, move, it's a
Saturday night
I fell in love with the sparkle in the moonlight
Reflected in your beautiful eyes, I guess that is
destiny doing it right
And dance like they do in the Mediterranean
Spin you around me again and again and
You're like something that God has sent me
I want you baby, solamente
You and I we're flying on an aeroplane tonight
We're going, somewhere where the sun is
shining bright
Just close your eyes, and let's pretend we're
dancing in the street
In Barcelona
Barcelona
Barcelona
Barcelona
Barcelona
Barcelona
Oh Barcelona
So let's pretend we're dancing in the street
In Barcelona
Las Ramblas, I'll meet you, we'll dance around La
Sagrada Familia
Drinking Sangria, mi nia, te amo mi cario
Mamacita, rica, si t, te adoro seorita
Los otros, viva la vida
Come on let's be free in Barcelona
Las Ramblas, I'll meet ya, come on and dance
with me, in Barcelona
Drinking Sangria, I just want to be in Barcelona
Mamacita, rica, feel that summer breeze in
Barcelona
Los otros, viva la vida, siempre vida Barcelona
"This Is Gospel"
This is gospel for the fallen ones
Locked away in permanent slumber
Assembling their philosophies
From pieces of broken memories
Oh, this is the beat of my heart, this is the beat of my
heart [2x]
Their gnashing teeth and criminal tongues conspire
against the odds
But they havent seen the best of us yet
If you love me let me go
If you love me let me go
Cause these words are knives and often leave scars
The fear of falling apart
And truth be told, I never was yours
The fear, the fear of falling apart
Oh, this is the beat of my heart, this is the beat of my
heart [2x]
This is gospel for the vagabonds,
Ne'er-do-wells and insufferable bastards
Confessing their apostasies
Led away by imperfect impostors
Oh, this is the beat of my heart, this is the beat of my
heart [2x]
Dont try to sleep through the end of the world
And bury me alive
'Cause I wont give up without a fight
If you love me let me go
If you love me let me go
Cause these words are knives and often leave scars
The fear of falling apart
And truth be told, I never was yours
The fear, the fear of falling apart
Oh, the fear of falling apart
Oh, the fear, the fear of falling apart
[4x]
(Oh, this is the beat of my heart, this is the beat of my
heart)
The fear of falling apart
