Orbiting chords by Reese Lansangan

• Difficulty: Beginner

Tuning: Standard (E A D G B E)

🎸 Verse 1:
            Am
We had a moment to ourselves
             C
Yeah it’s been a while, I know
             F
Was never with somebody else
That came close before you
           Am
But I had to let you go in the end
   F
And time has done its turn
     G
Putting distance between us
       C    Am
But here we go again, and by now
           F
I should be used to dancing in the dark
       G
And tripping over each other
      C
I need to leave you here
        Am
But I’m still learning how

🎸 Pre-Chorus:
   F    Am
And just like that
      G    Am - G
You’re haunting me slowly
F     Am    G
Terrified to not be
  Am - G  F
Your only onе
 N.C
(But I’m no longer)
  G
Anyone (And now I wonder)

🎸 Chorus:
 F
Arе we just friends
 G
Are we gonna pretend
       C
That nothing happened
In the end
   Am     G
I’m wondering if we ever came
F
Close to more than just friends
     G
Is this how you and I both end
     C
Forever orbiting each other
     Am     G       F
And yet never quite colliding into love

🎸 Verse 2:
                Am
We’ve been strangers for some time
             C
But I knew you like the back of my hand
              F
I love and hate you all at once
I had hoped that we’d make it
           Am
But I had to let you go in the end
   F
In favor of the only one
     G
Who still holds your heart
        C      Am
The one you couldn’t give to me
           F
And all I took were pieces of the love
       G
You used to have
           C              Am
The love that I had settled for until it dawned on me

🎸 Pre-Chorus:
   F    Am
That even though this is
G     Am - G
What I’ve wanted
F       Am
Gravity won’t let me
G     Am - G F
Into your orbit, no (Can’t occupy it)
       G
Now I don’t know (Can’t occupy it)

🎸 Chorus:
 F
Are we just friends
 G
Are we gonna pretend
        C
That nothing happened
In the end
   Am     G
I’m wondering if we ever came
 F
Close to more than just friends
 G
Is this how you and I both end
     C
Forever orbiting each other
     Am      G
And yet never quite colliding into love

🎸 Bridge:
   Dm           Am
I’m sorry if I still write about you
  C              F
I apologize for putting you in song
   Dm            Am
I surrender to the forces of nature
          C
Just go ahead and chase for the girl
           F
That you loved all along
        F
And maybe this time
           G
I’ll learn to let you go

🎸 Chorus:
F
Are we just friends
G
Are we gonna pretend
        C
That nothing happened
In the end
   Am     G
I’m wondering if we ever came
F
Close to more than just friends
     G
Is this how you and I both end
      C
Forever orbiting each other
     Am      G
And yet never quite colliding into love

🎸 Outro:
    F
Can I make it with you
    G
If I orbit around you
     C
Will I lose me in you
    Am  G
If I orbit around you
    F
Can I make it with you
    G
If I orbit around you
    C
Will I just break in two
   Am
If I orbit around you
    F
Can I make it with you
    G
If I orbit around you
    C
Will I lose me in you
   Am
If I orbit around you
    F
Can I make it with you
   G
If I orbit around you
    C
Will I just break in two
 N.C.
If I orbit around you
