Onerepublic - Feel Again
Tabbed by: sikorad15
Tuning: Standard, Capo 5
the other tabs were quite off. heres my guess. enjoy!
C F
It's been a long time coming since I've seen your face
C F
I've been everywhere and back trying to replace
Am F
everything that I've had till my feet went numb
C F
Praying like a fool that's been on the run
Heart still beating but it's not working
It's like a million dollar phone that you just can't ring
I reach out trying to love but I feel nothing
Yeah, my heart is numb
C F
But with you
Am
I feel again
C F
Yeah with you
Am
I can feel again
Yeah
(C F Am F)
Woo-hoo [x4]
I'm feeling better since you know me
I was a lonely soul but that's the old me
(the rest of the song is the same as beginning)
It's been a long time coming since I've seen your face
I've been everywhere and back trying to replace everything that I broke till my feet went numb
Praying like a fool who just shot a gun
Heart still beating but it's not working
It's like a hundred thousand voices that just can't sing
I reached out trying to love but I feel nothing
Oh my heart is numb
But with you
I feel again
And with you
I can feel again
But with you
(I'm feeling better since you know me)
I feel again
(I was a lonely soul but that's the old me)
Yeah with you
(I'm feeling better since you know me)
I can feel again
(I was a lonely soul)
Woo-hooo
Woo-hooo [x4]
(I'm feeling better since you know me)
(I was a lonely soul, but that's the old me)
(I'm feeling better since you know me)
(I was a lonely soul, but that's the old me)
(I'm feeling better since you know me)
(I was a lonely soul, but that's the old me)
I'm feeling better ever since you know me
I was a lonely soul but that's the old me
A little wiser now from what you showed me
Yeah, I feel again
Feel again...

Like a stone you watch it fall
And let it roll out over the fields
You take your time and watch it crawl
Like you're the big shot symphony
But oh what would you say if I told you 'the pitch is wrong' with a smile?
I took a trip to wonderland,
Gonna get you nowhere by a mile
E
I, I could light it up for you
I, I could light it up for you
C#m H
We, We ain't got a shot to lose
E
Put it on but fade it out
Tell you that you weren't enough
Acting like your favourite drug
Raise a cup
We can light it up
E
I took a shot and missed the mark
Well every single day I multiply
A million drums of kerosene
Baby, like a hotel in the sky
I just want to see
All the sparks you're trying to hide
Let's take a trip to wonderland
We can just tune this fire tonight

play this chord progression for the whole song!
lyrics:
When I was a kid
I used to buy and sell gravity
I knew how to fly
And I could teach you for a fee
Break every window
In my hotel heart
I was only 5 years old but 12 years scarred
And I'd hear the same voice
Echo in my mind
Said 'son you got an angel,
To chase the devil at the light'
When I was a kid
My grandfather was a preacher
He'd talk about God
Yeah he was something like a teacher
He said 'God only helps those
Who learn to help themselves'
He was a million miles from a million dollars
But you could never spend his wealth
I took a little faith
And put it in a parking lot
I drove to a strange town
Full of have and have nots
And as I walked through that storybook life
I was looking for an angel to chase the devil at the light
Oh oh oh
When I was a kid
My grandfather was a preacher
He'd talk about love
Yeah he was something like a teacher
He said 'God only helps those
Who learn to help themselves'
He was a million miles from a million dollars
But you could never spend his wealth
Wave
Put your hands up and hands down
(x3)
When I was a kid
My grandfather was a preacher
He'd talk about life
Yeah he was something like a teacher
He said 'God only helps those
Who learn to help themselves'
He was a million miles from a million dollars
But you could never spend his wealth
Oh
He was a million miles from a million dollars
But you could never spend his wealth

I'm givin' it some heart and soul, now
G#m A
From the darkest grays, the sun bursts, clouds break
E
Yeah, we see that fire
A
From the streets of Babylon
C#m G#m
To the road that we've been on long
A
The kaleidoscope claims another
Chorus:
E
Whoa oh-oh oh This is life in color
A C#m
Today feels like no other
G#m A
From the darkest grays, the sun bursts, clouds break
E
Whoa oh-oh oh This is life in motion
A C#m G#m
And just when I couldn't run this race anymore
A
The sun bursts, clouds break
This is life in color
Verse 2:
E
You've seen my worst, yet you see some hope in me
A C#m G#m
The black and white sets us free like the queen to the rook
A
Your decision was a sure thing honey yeah, a sure thing
E A
No wonder I feel like I'm missing a heavy load
C#m G#m
But no matter what daylight brings to us
A
We all know
Chorus x2
