xThis is a correction of the previous version, so the ground work comes courtesy of
- whose tab was very good, but I made a few corrections, and I'm now certain this is right!
[Intro]
Am, Em, D - C, F - G
[Verse 1]
Am Em
What amounts to a dream any more?
D - C F - G
A crude device, a veil on our eyes
Am Em
A simple plan we'd be different from the rest
D - C F - G
And never resign to a typical life
[Instrumental]
Am, Em, D - C, F - G
Am, Em, D - C, F - G
[Verse 2]
Am Em
Common fears start to multiply
D - C F - G
We realize we're paralysed
Am Em
Where'd it go, all that precious time?
D - C F - G
Did we even try, to stem the tide?
[Chorus]
D Am
Why should we waste it on
C F - G
Buying into the same old lies?
D Am
The longer we wait around
C F - G
The faster the years go by
Em D
It's not too late
F G
To feel a little more alive
Em D
Make our escape
F G
Before we start to vaporize
[Instrumental]
Am, Em, D - C, F - G
Am, Em, D - C, F - G
G, C, Em, F, G
[Bridge]
G C
Doubtless, we've been through this
Em F G
So if you want to follow me you should know
G C
I was lost then and I'm lost now
Em F G
And I doubt I'll ever know which way to go
[Instrumental]
Am, Em, D - C, F - G
Am, Em, D - C, F - G
Am, Em, D - C, F - G
Am, Em, D - C, F - G
until end.
Hope you like it! New at this, but I love this song and wanted to put a correct version
there. For the longest time I could NOT get the "doutbless" bit - but after carefully
James Mercer play it live, i'm 100% that this is it! Also, in the other version, the D
Dm, but reviewing Mercer play it - I'm sure this is it too! Hope this helps!
