Note: I indicated whether the chords are major or minor, but a lot of these chords
seem to be played without the third for much of the song.

Intro: D#- B F# C# B (2x)

VERSE 1:
[D#-]Blue skies, Arizona
Long flight back home
[D#-]Looks like they go on forever
I know they don?t

[D#-]
VERSE 2:
[D#-]My heart’s like this old suitcase
Worn out, torn, and frayed
[D#-]Can’t hold what it used to
It’s half empty anyway

CHORUS:
It?s never too late to surrender
It?s never too late to make amends
It?s never too late to turn it over
It?s never too late, till it is

[D#-]
VERSE 3:
[D#-]You were wild when I met you
Can?t say I wasn?t warned
The [D#-]first night you threw punches
I should’ve walked out the door

(CHORUS)

BRIDGE:
Flying over the Grand Canyon
I can see how the river used to run
We all run
Till the water’s gone

(CHORUS)

Waited a hundred years to see your face
and I would wait a hundred more,
if only to be near you,
to have you and to hear you.
Isn’t that what time is for?

I sailed a thousand ships in search of you,
traveled to distant lands.
I dove for sunken gold,
I took what I could hold, but you’re
still the greatest treasure I’ve held in my hands.

My love, the reason I survive,
trust we’ll be together soon.
Should our fire turn to dark,
take my heart with you.

A tattered photograph my pocket holds,
I keep you secretly.
I’ve studied every line.
You’re etched upon my mind,
for not a million soldiers could take you from me.

My love, the reason I survive,
trust we’ll be together soon.
Should our fire turn to dark,
take my heart with you.

You… Ahhhh, Ahhhh, Oooh

My love, the reason I survive,
trust we’ll be together soon.
Should our fire turn to dark,
take my heart with you.

take my heart with you.

take my heart with you.

Not sure if they are in fact the right chords, but it sounds about right and it’s
simple for me to just pull out at parties etc? Hope you like. Comments and
corrections are more than welcome 🙂

Verse:
You always get the last word
You fly like a mockingbird
Every time I get you cornered, you slip through my fingers, you do

Chorus:

When I’m trying to outrun you
You won’t leave me alone
When I need you to be with me
I end up on my own
Oh, I wish that I could move you
Faster, be still or rewind
But it’s a matter of time

My heart is a rubber band
Strung out between your hands
You gave me love but I wasn’t ready then,
And you took it back now that I am

Chorus:

When I’m trying to outrun you
You won’t leave me alone
When I need you to be with me
I end up on my own
Oh, I wish that I could move you
Faster, be still or rewind
But it’s a matter of time

My love, (why can’t we go back there?)
My fate, (are we beyond repair?)
A year; (it’s not so far away)
Too late, (can we start over again?)
If he could see,( what he could be with me)
Me now, (that I feel differently)
I’ve come, (he’ll see I’ve come)
Around

Chorus

When I’m trying to outrun you
You won’t leave me alone
When I need you to be with me
I end up on my own
Oh, I wish that I could move you
Faster, be still or rewind
But it’s a matter of time

Instrumental:

Am, C, G, D etc. Whatever sounds right to you. I just play those chords.

Oh, I wish that I could move you
Faster, be still or rewind

Faster, be still or rewind
But it’s a matter of time

Today you’re gonna leave
Just like you did the day before.
Watch by the windowsill
You disappear into the corner store.
I could swear that I saw you
Slip out the back door.
G A (hold)
You left your set of keys
And left me alone.

I’m pacing our apartment.
My head’s a broken record.
I can’t think.

I keep repeating the very last words that you said to me.
You didn’t tell me you loved me
Just goodbye (bye bye bye bye)
And there was something kinda final in it.

Stay. (stay, stay)
Everything is wrong without you.
Stay. (stay, stay)
My whole world’s a wreck
Oh will you save me now (save me now)
Or leave me crazy ever after.

I’m in a weak condition.
Now you cut into the heart of me.
You’ve got my mind racin’.
Losin’ my grip on reality.

You got me second guessing what’s true and what’s a lie.
Why don’t you look me in the eye when I say

Stay. (stay, stay)
Everything is wrong without you.
Stay. (stay, stay)
My whole world’s a wreck
Oh will you save me now (save me now)
Or leave me crazy ever after

Stay. (stay, stay)
Everything is wrong without you.
Stay. (stay, stay)
My whole world’s a wreck
Oh will you save me now (save me now)
Or leave me crazy ever after

(D, Bm, Em, A, G)
I don’t know how to be alone.
Don’t know how to be alone.
Don’t know how to be alone.
Today your gonna leave
Just like you did the day before.

Stay.
Everything is wrong.
Stay.
My whole world’s a wreck.
(D, Bm, Em, A, G)
Stay. (stay, stay)
Stay. (stay, stay)
Stay. (stay, stay)
Stay.

Oh will you save me now (save me now)
Or leave me crazy ever after

Verse 1

My empty room, crowded to soon
I look for the fire escape.
I picture myself, running like hell
Making my getaway

Pre-Chorus

The walls are caving in with no warning
This ship is sinking, I gotta swim for it
I’m running out of air

Chorus

Break me out tonight, I wanna see the
Sun rising anywhere but here
Come with me. Oh, this could be
The only chance we get, we gotta take it
We don’t do it now we’ll never make it
Lose this crowd
Oh break me out

Verse 2

Whisper of our feet, sneak down the street
Some kind of secret race
They’ll carry on, Won’t notice we’re gone
So easily replaced

Pre-Chorus 2
The walls are caving in with no warning
This ship is sinking, I gotta swim for it
I’m running out of air

Chorus

Break me out tonight, I wanna see the
Sun rising anywhere but here
Come with me. Oh, this could be
The only chance we get, we gotta take it
We don’t do it now we’ll never make it
Lose this crowd
Oh break me out

Bridge
[-] [-] [-]
The walls are caving in with no warning
This ship is sinking, I gotta swim for it
I got a feeling we’re better off anyway
I don’t care what they say

Chorus

Break me out tonight, I wanna see the
Sun rising anywhere but here
Come with me. Oh, this could be
The only chance we get, We gotta take it
We don’t do it now we’ll never make it
Lose this crowd,
Oh break me out

Outro: C

Note: The way that the chords are played varies a lot. There are different
inversions in the verses (C-/G, Eb/Bb, Eb/G) as well as chords being played
without thirds (C-5, Ab5, Eb5). It wouldn?t be possible to articulate all of these
differences from line to line, but it?s a cool sound to vary it up sometimes.

INTRO:
C- Ab Eb (2x)

VERSE 1:
[C-]Two centuries
Since I first saw you weave
Like a d[C-]ance around my heart
You grew w[C-]ild when it rained
I dug deep into the slate
So we?d n[C-]ever be apart

CHORUS:
You, you always stayed by me
You, you wander but never leave
And [C-]I?m the one who watches over you
[F-7]That?s what I was built to do

C- Ab Eb (2x)

VERSE 2:
Laid the t[C-]rack, poured the streets
Ties of glass and concrete
In s[C-]ilence, you watched what I became
You [C-]lifted me up
Said I?d stand at the top
And all the w[C-]orld would know my name

(CHORUS)

BRIDGE:
F-7 Eb Bb (2x)

[F-7] Love, don?t you weep
You know we cannot keep
[F-7] This moment here together
[F-7] If you could only see
The beauty that I see
[F-7] We?d go on forever

VERSE 3:
And as [C-]I turn to rust
Start to crack, betray us
Yo[C-]u, you haven?t aged a day
When it?s t[C-]ime for me to go
Promise me that you?ll flow
[Ebmaj7/G]Until the o[C-]cean washes you away

CHORUS:
You, you always stayed by me
You, you wander but never leave
And [C-]I?m the one who watches over you
[C-]I?m the one who watches over you
[C-]I?m the one who watches over you
[F-7]That?s what I was built to do

[C-]
