capo 2
this way of playing in the key of a is a lot like the way most people play in the
key of E . i βinventedβ it , but iβm sure thereβve been countless people whoβve
already been playing it in this manner .

intro : A E F#m D
C#m
C#m D
verse :
E F#m D
i listen to the sirens as they sing me back to sleep
E F#m D
i pray that no oneβs seriously hurt
E F#m D
it feels like everything is dying at the pivot point of me
E F#m D
i listen to the sirens tell me things could still be worse
pre β chorus :
D E
cause if you close your eyes and listen close
F#m A
you can hear the chapter close
D E
and its all rebound in better clothes
F#m A
and you like the way this story goes
D E
cause the sun still burns the shadows out
F#m C#m D
and thereβs nothing to complain about now
chorus :
D E
cause if this was our destiny iβd treasure the fact
F#m D
and iβd give you whats left of me if iβd held back
D E
but i donβt need a soul
F#m D
no i donβt need a soul to hold
D E
without you iβm still whole
F#m D
you and life remain beautiful
verse 2 :
E F#m
departing from the hospital
D
ill news shows on your face too well
E F#m D
youβre trying not to cough at all it hurts
E F#m D
all options are exhausted all your numbered days are numbered small
E F#m
i miss you now , i loved you
D
and i know things could still be worse
side β notes/Clarifications :
β for the intro , the A , E , and F#m are constant . the D/C#m/C#m + D are endings that you use .
β after the chorus the first time through , when you sing βyou and life remain beautifulβ
put in the lyrics above ) , you can play a different E before going in the the standard E
to the song for it )
F# | β β β 0 β β β |
C# | β β β 0 β β β |
A | β β β 9 β β β |
E | β β β 9 β β β | _> this song was pretty hard to get the chords
not because the chords were anything non β standard , but itβs really hard to hear
properly . : p
