Ellie Goulding - Wish I Stayed

A
why can’t we speak another language
C#m
one we all agree on
A
why when men look outside do they see houses
C#m
instead of fields they grew from
A
we are constantly uprooted from them
C#m
making us tiresome and fearful
A
can you get up right now
C#m
and endeavor freefall ( off )

A
caus’you can fall if you want to
A
it’s just a matter of how far
C#m
you’ve treasured your home town
C#m
you’ve forgotten where you are
A
and it will stay with you
A
til’ your mind’s been found
C#m
and it has been found wondering around .

E
without a skipping rope

a trampoline
G#m
a crafty smoke
C#m
they’ve made a simpler way to give up
E
it’s the simple ways

of getting payed
G#m
the carelessness of lying awake
C#m
oh i wish i stayed
A
i wish i stayed
C#m
i wish i stayed

A
patterns all arranged in my backround
C#m
it’s pillars and posts keeping this country on form
A
letters were all sent with no addresses
C#m
so that people can’t scuffer
C#m
always undercover
A
why do i always draw triangles instead of words
C#m
it’s paint so it serves
A
cus you see i don’t own my clothes but i own my mind
C#m
and it’s not what you’ve lost
C#m
but it’s what you’ll find

E
without a skipping rope

a trampoline
G#m
a crafty smoke
C#m
they’ve made a simpler way to give up
E
it’s the simple ways

of getting payed
G#m
the carelessness of lying awake
C#m
oh i wish i stayed
A
i wish i stayed
C#m
i wish i stayed

A
cus you can fall if you want to
A
it’s just a matter of how far
C#m
