N.P Sorry for any chords being slightly out with regards the word placing, the tab
seems to re calibrate them when created.
[Intro:] C#m G#m F#m C#m
[Verse]
C#m G#m
Time shakes, found you at the water
F#m C#m
At first you were my father, now I love you like a brother
C#m G#m
Earthquakes shake the dust behind you
F#m
This weather toss will blind you
C#m
Still not know, I seem blind
[Chorus]
A F#m C#m
Come a little closer than you seem
C#m
Come on, come on, come on
A F#m C#m
Things aren't always what they seem to be
C#m
Come on, come on, come on
A F#m C#m
Do you understand the things that you would see here
C#m
Come on, come on, come on
A F#m C#m
Do you understand the things that you've been dreaming
A F#m C#m
Come a little closer than you seem
F#5 G#5
[Verse]
C#m G#m
Heartbreaks, that have me rest upon your shoulder
F#m
Will you buy my...(?)
C#m
So now I know I found you there
C#m G#m
Uuuh, wanna see if you can change it,
F#m C#m
Change it, Still not know, I seem good
[Chorus]
A F#m C#m
Come a little closer than you seem
C#m
Come on, come on, come on
A F#m C#m
Things aren't always what they seem to be
A F#m C#m
Do you understand the things that you would see here
C#m
Come on, come on, come on
A F#m C#m
Do you understand the things that you've been dreaming
A F#m C#m
Come a little closer than you seem
A F#m C#m
Come a little closer than you seem
[Bridge]
In this section there isn't much rhythm guitar so I tend to just play alongside
the bass roots with power chords (the "5"chords) when there isn't any rhythm guitar.
F#5
Oo oo oo oo oo oo oo oo
A5
Oo oo oo oo oo oo oo oo
F#5
Oo oo oo oo oo oo oo oo
A5
Oo oo oo oo oo oo oo oo
F#5
Oo oo oo oo oo oo oo oo
A5 F#5 C#5 F#5 G#5
Ooooo
A5 F#m C#m F#5 G#5
Ten thousand people stand alone now
A5 F#m C#m
And in the evening the sun sets,
F#5 G#5 A5
Tomorrow it will rise
A5 F#m C#m F#5 G#5
Tiiiiiiiime fliiiiies byyyyyy, they all sing along
A5 F#m C#m F#5 G#5
Tiiiiiiiime fliiiiies byyyyyy, they all sing along
A5 F#m C#m F#5 G#5
Tiiiiiiiime fliiiiies byyyyyy, they all sing along
A5 F#m C#m F#5 G#5
Tiiiiiiiime fliiiiiiiies byyyyyyy, byyyyyyy
[Chorus]
A F#m C#m
Come a little closer than you seem
C#m
Come on, come on, come on
A F#m C#m
Come a little closer than you seem
A F#m C#m
Come a little closer than you seem
A F#m C#m
Come a little closer than you seem
