Guitar chords for the song "Victory in a Landlocked Sea"
Yesterday, a listener asked me for the chords to this song. Good idea. Why not publish the chords to some of my songs. Here you go!
Capo on 1st fret
Am Fmaj7
All those years
C Em E7
All the same
Am Fmaj7
All those fears
C G7
All in vain
Am Fmaj7 C Em E7
On a sailboat called "Victory" in a land-locked sea
Am Fmaj7 C Em E7
Like a glossy image in a dull magazine
Am Fmaj7 C Em E7
On a broken record sounds will just repeat
Am Fmaj7 C G7
I've longed for something just beyond where anyone can see in a landlocked sea
Chorus:
Am F C G7
Cuz I've seen more than anything I thought I'd see
Am F C G7
And I've been to all the places that I'd want to be
Am Fmaj7 C G7
I guess each moment is just fading into memory
Am Fmaj7 C G7
And yet each moment is the only that ever means anything to me
On a sailboat called Victory in a land-locked sea
I've longed for something just beyond where anyone can see in a landlocked sea
Break:
And I've seen more than anything I thought I'd see
And I've been to all the places that I'd want to be
I guess each moment is just fading into memory
And yet each moment is the only that ever means anything to me
Am Fmaj7
All those years
C Em E7
All the same
Am Fmaj7
All those fears
C Em E7
All in vain

From last night's concert
"While You Were Asleep" by Abscondo (live looping performance)
From the 2018 album and film called Treetops.
Lyrics:
While you were asleep, you were here, in my arms
It never matters how steep, or how long, we go on
Don’t you feel there is something in the air that keeps us so damn strong
How sweet, how sweet is our song
When I was so weak, you were there, you were strong
It never matters what we seek, or how long, we go on
It don’t matter what you do
I will come along with you
Don’t matter what we try
If it’s me and you then we both will fly
While you were asleep, you were here, in my arms
It never matters how steep, or how long, we go on
"Forbidden Curiosities" by Abscondo (live looping performance)
Lyrics:
I'll wait for the right moment
If it takes my whole life
Cuz none of this is real to me
The colors I know you don't see
But I feel them them inside
You've got nothing now to say to me, still on the phone with your family
So I'll keep this inside
But if in these routines you might free forbidden curiosities
I could change your whole life
In the light of a cool morning
While these thoughts are alive
The sun is lighting up those dreams
The world still sleeps so I'm still free
So I'll keep very quiet
And if I should fade off to sleep, the day will start with or without me
Then I'll do what's required
But if in these routines I might see, people who are just like me
I'll invite them inside
Hope you'll stay by my side
