Kodaline - High Hopes

high hopes – kodaline

capo 4th

theres a nice little fill in the verses and chorus with an Am – Am/G – F which i will
explain up here and note it below as fill . it gets cluttery and inaccurate if filled in
with exact chord notations below .

first play the Am ( assuming youre using your index , middle and ring fingers ) , and then
move your pinky to the third fret on the low E string , and then to a barred F ( E with
finger over the entire first fret ) . i use the barred F to get that nice bass line in the
fill , but you can use any other variation if you dont care to much about it .

anyways , enjoy the song : D i dont think the lyrics are 100% accurate , so by all means
look for different ones .

verse 1

C C/B Am F
broken bottles in the hotel lobby ,
C E7 fill – – – – – – – – F
seems to me like im just scared of ever feeling it again ,
C E7 fill – – – – – – – – – – – – F
i know its crazy to believe in silly things ,
G
its not that easy ,

verse 2

i remember it now , it takes me back to where it all first started ,
but i only got myself to blame for it , and i accept the now ,
its time to , let it all go , go out and start again ,
but its not that easy .

high hopes , when you let it go , go out and start again ,
C E7 fill – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – F

but the world keeps spinning .

instrumental ( verse chords )

and in my dreams , i make the ghosts of all the people whove come and gone ,
memories , they seem to show up so quick but they leave you far too soon ,
my evil , is just staring at the barrel of a gun ,
and i do believe in ,
