Lyrics

Oh, they (C#m7)say peo ple (A6)come,

(E)say peo ple (G#m7)go,

this par (C#m7)tic u lar (A6)dia mond was (E)ex tra spe (B)cial.

And though (C#m7)you might be (A6)gone

and the (Esus4)world (E)may not (G#m7)know,

still I (C#m7)see you, ce (A6)lest ti al.

Like a (C#m7)li on you (A6)ran,

a (Esus4)god (E)dess you (G#m7)rolled,

like an (C#m7)ea gle you (A6)cir cled in (E)per fect pur (B)ple.

So how (C#m7)come things move (A6)on,

how (Esus4)come (E)cars don’t (G#m7)slow,

when it (C#m7)feels like the (A6)end of my world?

When I (C#m7)should, but I (A6)can’t let you go?

But when I’m (C#m7)cold,

(E)cold,

oh when I’m cold,

(E)cold,

there’s a (C#m7)light that you (A)give me when (E)I’m in shad (G#m7)ow,

there’s a (C#m7)feel ing you (A6)give me, an (Bsus4)ev er glow.

Like (C#m7)broth ers in (A6)blood,

(Esus4)sis (E)ters who (G#m7)ride

and we (C#m7)swore on that (A6)night we’d be (E)friends till we (B)die.

But the (C#m7)chang ing of (A6)winds

and the (E)way wa ters (G#m7)flow,

life as (C#m7)short as the (A6)fall ing of snow;

and now I’m gon na (A6)miss you, I know…

But when I’m (C#m7)cold,

(E)cold,

in wa ter rolled

(E)salt.

I (C#m7)know that you’re (A)with me and the (E)way you will (G#m7)show

and you’re (C#m7)with me wher (A6)ev er I go.

And you (C#m7)give me this (A6)feel ing, this ev er glow.

Oh.

What I would n’t (C#m7)give for just a (A6)mo ment to hold.

Yeah, I (C#m7)live for this (A6)feel ing, this ev er glow.

So if (C#m7)you love some (A6)one,

you should let them (G#m7)know,

oh, the (C#m7)light that you (A)left me will ev er glow.

Does it show chords so I can play along on guitar or piano?
It does — a chord symbol sits on a thin row just above the lyric it changes on, so the same screen doubles as a lyrics-and-chords chart. Guitarists can strum the changes and pianists can comp while singing; the chords are colour-coded and move with the live transpose if you change key.

Yes. The original is in E, but the live transpose control shifts the whole song up or down semitones until the melody sits in your range (or maps to an easier guitar shape / capo position) — the on-screen chords and the backing move with it.
Can I slow "Everglow" down to learn the words and chords?
Yes — the tempo control lets you take it as slow as you need while the lyrics still light up in time and the ball keeps you on the beat. Speed it back up once you can sing and play it through.
