 INTRO:

F#maj7 - B/F# - F# - F# (x2)







 VERSE 1:

         F#maj7         B/F#     F#         F#

  I have tried but it's hard to fight it

               F#maj7      B/F#    F#         F#

  I can't just watch as it falls apart

              F#maj7     B/F#          F#           F#

  If we could break the mould, make it in from the cold

            F#maj7      B/F#       F#         F#

  Lose your mind, never lose your heart







 PRE-CHORUS 1:

           Eb

  I don't mind working hard for it

                 F#

  I'll bend the hands 'til the space appears

                 Eb

  I'll move the pieces until we all fit

               F#                  Abm11      F#/Bb

  From near to far and from far to near







 CHORUS 1:

        Bsus2                             F#

  And I know that I'm going against the grain

        Abm11     F#/Bb    Bsus2

  And I know this makes no sense

        Bsus2               F#         Abm11   F#/Bb    Bsus2

  The changes I've tried to make, they make no differ - ence

        Bsus2                F#                     Eb

  But I know that I'll try again, although it's so hard

   F#   Bsus2

  Hard, hard







 TRANSITION:

F#maj7 - B/F# - F# - F# (x2)







 VERSE 2:

        F#maj7     B/F#     F#         F#

  Given time it'll finally focus

           F#maj7        B/F#      F#         F#

  And in a moment that's been and gone

             F#maj7             B/F#        F#           F#

  And in the afterglow, from my head to my soul

        F#maj7    B/F#    F#         F#

  I can see all I have ignored







 PRE-CHORUS 2:

               Eb

  And I don't mind working hard for it

                 F#

  I'll bend the hands 'til the space appears

                 Eb

  I'll move the pieces until we all fit

               F#                  Abm11      F#/Bb

  From near to far and from far to near







 CHORUS 2:

        Bsus2                             F#

  And I know that I'm going against the grain

        Abm11     F#/Bb    Bsus2

  And I know this makes no sense

        Bsus2               F#         Abm11   F#/Bb    Bsus2

  The changes I've tried to make, they make no differ - ence

        Bsus2                F#                     Eb

  But I know that I'll try again, although it's so hard

   F#   Bsus2

  Hard, hard







 TRANSITION:

F#maj7 - B/F# - F# - F# (x2)







 BRIDGE:

     C#7/Ab                     F#add9

  If life's so short then we're wasting time

  C#/F                   F#add9

  Love is the last thing on our minds

  C#7/Ab        F#add9          C#/F       C#/F

  It's so simple but so hard to see

      C#sus4       Ebm7

  And you are not alone in this

   Bb                B9

  Sense of loss and loneliness

  C#7/Ab               F#add9          C#/F       C#/F

  Take your shoes off, run towards the sea







 CHORUS 3:

        Bsus2                             F#

  And I know that I'm going against the grain

        Abm11     F#/Bb    Bsus2

  And I know this makes no sense

        Bsus2               F#         Abm11   F#/Bb    Bsus2

  The changes I've tried to make, they make no differ - ence

        Bsus2                F#                     Eb

  But I know that I'll try again, although it's so hard

   F#   Bsus2

  Hard, hard







 TRANSITION:

F#maj7 - B/F# - F# - F# (x2)







 OUTRO:

             F#/Bb    Am6       F#

  I know the sun will keep on shining down

      Am6                    F#

  As long as you're around
