eb Tuning
You'll need to listen to the song for the timings of the chords as it can be a little
tricky at first.
[Intro]
F#m A E C#m
[Verse 1]
F#m A
Everyone it seems,
E C#m
has somewhere to go.
F#m A
And the faster the world spins,
E C#m
the shorter the lights will glow.
F#m A
And I'm swimming in the night.
E C#m
chasing down the moon.
F#m A
The deeper in the water
E C#m
the more I long for you
[Chorus 1]
B G#m
And most of what you see my dear is purely for show
F#m D C#m
because not everything that goes around comes back around you know
B G#m
Holding on too long is just a fear of letting go,
F#m D C#m
because not everything that goes around comes back around you know
B
One thing that is clear, it's all downhill from here.
(Long instrumental bit that I haven't gone through yet- feel free to figure it out and
post it in the comments)
[Verse 2]
F#m A
The love light in your hand,
E C#m
cleverly disguised.
F#m A
All the promises of stone,
E C#m
crumble in the night.
[Chorus 2]
B G#m
Most of what you see my dear is worth letting go
F#m D C#m
because not everything that goes around comes back around you know
B G#m
Holding on too long is just fear of what to show
F#m D C#m
because not everything that goes around comes back around you know
F#m D C#m
not everything that goes around comes back around you know
B C#m
One thing that is clear, it's all downhill from here
End on C#m
That's it, feel free to make suggestions
