Tough Act chords by Maisie Peters

Chords with lyrics

🎸 Intro:

Bb majorBb FF Eb MajorEb


🎸 Verse 1:
 Bb majorBb      FF
We rode it to a dead end
    Eb MajorEb
Saying goodbye to a best friend
    Bb majorBb       FF        Eb MajorEb
Is the bad part of the right thing to do
Bb majorBb      FF
I was hard to handle
    Eb MajorEb
And we burned out like a birthday candle
  Bb majorBb       FF       Eb MajorEb
The pictures on the mantle aren't true

🎸 Pre-Chorus:
            C minorCm
Everybody knows that a breakup
                 DmDm
Is better when there’s someone to hate, but
               Eb MajorEb
You were my favourite way to stay up
          FF
And I'd say that still


🎸 Chorus:
 Bb majorBb
I know the reasons
       G minorGm
Took a couple tries to see 'em
    FF
But now everything is through
         Eb MajorEb
It’s you I wanna call, though
   Bb majorBb
When all I've known of
          G minorGm
Is something that I should let go of
   FF                    Eb MajorEb
I'll cut it at the root and drain it 'til it's all so hollow
      Bb majorBb    FF   Eb MajorEb
But you are one tough act to follow

🎸 Verse 2:
Bb majorBb  FF
I got busy
    Eb MajorEb
And you forgot how to miss me
     Bb majorBb         FF      Eb MajorEb
When I'm not much of who you grew up with
  Bb majorBb    FF
Oh, you were distracted
    Eb MajorEb
And the silence made a hat trick
    Bb majorBb        FF      Eb MajorEb
It's a long list with a lasting fix


🎸 Pre-Chorus:
            C minorCm
Everybody knows that a breakup
                 DmDm
Is better when there’s someone to hate, but
               Eb MajorEb
You were my favourite way to stay up
          FF
And I'd say that still


🎸 Chorus:
 Bb majorBb
I know the reasons
       G minorGm
Took a couple tries to see 'em
    FF
But now everything is through
         Eb MajorEb
It’s you I wanna call, though
   Bb majorBb
When all I've known of
          G minorGm
Is something that I should let go of
   FF                    Eb MajorEb
I'll cut it at the root and drain it 'til it's all so hollow
      Bb majorBb    FF   Eb MajorEb
But you are one tough act to follow


🎸 Bridge:
   Eb MajorEb          Bb majorBb
And I know that we weren’t perfect
       Eb MajorEb      Bb majorBb
So I hope you meet someone tomorrow
     Eb MajorEb       Bb majorBb
And she's everything you wanted
        Bb majorBb    FF   Eb MajorEb
But I hope I'm one tough act to follow


🎸 Chorus:
 Bb majorBb
I know the reasons
       G minorGm
Took a little time to believe 'em
    FF
But now everything is through
         Eb MajorEb
It’s you I wanna call, though
   Bb majorBb
When all I've known of
          G minorGm
Is something that I should let go of
   FF                    Eb MajorEb
I'll cut it at the root and drain it 'til it's all so hollow
      Bb majorBb    FF   Eb MajorEb
But you are one tough act to follow
    Bb majorBb    FF   Eb MajorEb
You are one tough act to follow
