Sara Bareilles - Miss Simone Chords

[intro]
A#  A#/A  Gm  A#7  D#  G#sus2

[verse 1]
A#               A#/A
 Smiles in the morning at me
Gm                 A#7
 Apartment on the second story
D#                Cm/G#
 Strangers in a brand new city
A#              A#/A
 Both remembering last night
Gm                    A#7
 Kitchen table and a bottle of wine
D#                   G#sus2     Gm  A#7
 The only thing on my mind is you

[pre-chorus 1]
D#
 The way the moonlight flickered in, we were
D
 Stars of some old classic film

[chorus]
     A#           F
With Miss Simone,  singing
Cm                 D#
 "Pour some sugar in my bowl, baby"
A#                   F
 In the glow of the candlelight
    Cm              D#
We danced all night
A#                F
  On the rooftop,  thinking
Cm               D#
No one needs to know a thing
    Gm          A#7
But Miss Simone
           D#           D
No one but Miss Simone

[verse 2]
A#            A#/A
 Moving boxes cover the floor
Gm                   A#7
 I never quite been here before
D#                Cm/G#
 Finally made a house feel like home
A#                  A#/A
 The years are flying past us now
Gm                   A#7
 But you and I have figured out how
D#                 G#sus2     Gm       A#7
 To conjure up a feeling so true

[pre-chorus 2]
D#
 Close the door and set the day down
D
 Settle in, and we'll throw on some

[chorus]
     A#           F
With Miss Simone,  singing
Cm                 D#
 "Pour some sugar in my bowl, baby"
A#                    F
 In the glow of the candlelight
        Cm             D#
We can dance all night
A#                F
  On the rooftop,  thinking
Cm               D#
No one needs to know a thing
    Gm          A#7
But Miss Simone
           D#           D
No one but Miss Simone

[bridge]
Gm
How'd she know
     A#7
What a heart sounds like
       C7
In the glow of this candle
     Cm              F/A
On a rooftop in the moonlight?

[verse 3]
A#              A#/A
 Someday when we're old and gray
Gm                A#7
 Sifting through our yesterdays
      D#
We'll pull that memory from its sleeve
    D
And play that song of you and me

[chorus]
     A#           F
With Miss Simone,  singing
Cm                 D#
 "Pour some sugar in my bowl, baby"
A#                    F
 In the glow of the candlelight
         Cm             D#
We will dance all night
A#                F
 On the rooftop,  thinking
Cm              D#
No one needs to know a thing
    Gm          A#7
But Miss Simone
       D#               D
No one but Miss Simone

[outro]
A#  A#/A  Gm  A#7  D#  G#sus2  A#
