San Gabriel Valley Chords by First Aid Kit

[Intro]

  F      Am   Fmaj7  Am 
  Fmaj7  Am   G         
 
 
[Verse]

Fmaj7    Am       Fmaj7       Am
 Driving down the San Gabriel Valley
Fmaj7  Am       G
   My  heart is empty as a drum
Fmaj7      Am          Fmaj7      
 I stopped looking for signs that
          Am
 you were with me
Fmaj7  Am           
 I was done for and 
G
I started again
 
 
[Chorus]

F             C
 The sunset's pink
F             C
 Let's have a drink
F         C   
 For everyone 
            Em
we couldn't hold on to
      F            C
Will I lose you in time?
    F               C    
I've surely lost my mind 
  Em
a million times
    Am        G         F
For true love makes you blind
Am        G         F
True love makes you blind
Am        G         F    C
True love makes you blind
 
 
[Post-Chorus]

  F  Am   F  Am 
  F  Am   G      
 
 
[Verse]

F           Am          F              Am
 Some of my friends they change there, too
F          Am     G
 With more phases than the moon
F        Am      F        Am
 Some of them are just so blue
F         Am            G
 Tell me, who do they belong to?
 
 
[Chorus]

F              C
 The morning's here
F             C
 Let's have a cheer
F            C                    Em
 For all the friends we've left behind
      F            C
Will I lose you in time?
    F               C      Em
I've surely lost my mind a million times
    Am        G         F
But true love makes you blind
Am        G         F
True love makes you blind
Am        G         F    C    C
True love makes you blind
 
 

[Bridge]

Em       F
 Me, I belong to the night
Em                     
 It's in the dark that 
 F
I find the light
Em               F
 It's in the love that 

I have found
       Am         G       F
When I thought it all was over
  Am         G       F
I thought it all was over
 
 
[Chorus]

F                C
 The night falls slow
F                  C
 Says "it's time to go
   F        C        
And forget about what 
   Em
we cannot change"
   F          C
And time will tell
    F            C    
If I lose you as well, 
   Em
my darling one
    Am        G         F
But true love makes you blind
Am        G         F
True love makes you blind
Am         G       F     C
Oh, you've made me blind, hey
 
 
[Outro]

  F  Am   F  Am 
  F  Am   G      
  F  Am   F  Am 
  F  Am   G       G
