Stolen Chords
Stolen by Civil Twilight is a moderately challenging guitar song played in the key of Em with a capo on the 3st fret. It uses the chords Em, G, D, Am and C. Use the transpose and diagram tools on this page to change the key, see each shape, or simplify the chords.
Doesn't exactly match the song, but it plays through with it pretty well. You can
pretty much pick whatever strumming pattern you like, and I like to increase the
tempo a little, but hey, to each his own.
TUNING: STANDARD
is the best match with the original song, but especially for girls I also
suggest no capo because it gets quite high.
Intro: Em, G
verse 1:
Em G
I met love, on the gravel road,
While I was, walking alone.
She was so, gentle and sweet.
Kissed my hands, kissed my feet.
verse 2:
Em G
She poured me, a glass of sweet red wine
To numb my feet, and ease my mind.
I fell a-sleep in her arms;
When I awoke, she was gone.
D G Em
I didn't even notice that something was wrong
D G Am C
I didn't even notice that my heart had been
Em D Em
Stolen.
verse 3:
Em G
Who is this, thief in the night?
Steals my strength, robs my might?
She left me, a blind wanderer,
With no words to speak or ponder.
D G Em
I didn't even notice that something was wrong
D G Am C
I didn't even notice that my heart had been
Em D Em
Stolen.
Bridge:
G C
I will search the land and sea to
D Am
Find this girl who stole from me
D C
And when I do I'll tell her she
G Am D
Can keep that old heart of mine.
D G Em
I didn't even notice anything was wrong
D G Am C
I didn't even notice that my heart had been
Em D Em
Stolen.
