Artist:Embrace
Song: Gravity
This song is amazing it was written by coldplay but they gave the song to
embrace to record as they said it sounded more embrace then they knew what to
do with.
The song is in the key of D# and you can play it more easy with a capo on fret
3, I will give you the chords to play for with and with out a capo.
NOTE: The chord on top is the note sounded and played with out a capo, the chord
below is the chord played with a capo.

| I dont think its about lost love, more found love - at last! I had a "special" friend but we couldnt be together because of complications. But the love we shared was too strong to ignore, so eventually we got together :O) - It's been a long time coming.....Such a long time running..... and im pleased to say now I cant stop smiling!! | |

| I think SmallOrange has got it right there. It reminds me of my friend (were not together). "it's been a long time coming" like years of friendship or something when fate is always pulling you together. Actually I cant even write what it means to me, there just aren't the words so i'm gonna give up now! 1 | |

| this song always upsets me, it reminds me of the guy I like and how he's had to move away for a year. This was out when we'd eventually told each other how we felt, which made me happy but also sad as he was going away so we couldn't act on it - mirrored when the line "can't stop smiling" changes to "can't stop crying" in another verse. I always think that if he comes back and we end up together it'll hold even more meaning. . . . . . "it's been a long time coming". So sad I know! | |

| Claire333, I see how it could be taken in a religious context, but to me, the fact that they use the word honey and baby suggest that it is definitely directed to a lover rather than god or jesus. | |
