Tennyson - Adam Barnes
(Capo 1)


Verse 1:

                                 G                            Em
There must be something wrong with me, a certain flaw I cannot face.
                                 C                               D
Cause I’ve been saving up for years, trying to move out of this place.
                             G                            Em
But all my money keeps on moving. Affording things I cannot see.
                            C                               D
To find a life within my music. Keep writing songs of you and me.
                                  G                                  Em
And she’s the cause of my distractions, and I’m so pleased to call her mine.
                             C                               D                               G
But I’m fed up of waking on my own, fed up of eating here alone, fed up of wasting precious time.

Verse 2:

                                 C                           D
But I know that we have more to see, more stress we have to fight.
                          G                             Em
I know the morning always comes with the evening close behind.
                         C                             D
Yet through every single day I know I get to hold you tight.
                                     G                                    Em
I’m scared we’ll miss our chance to live, you know I’m worried that we might.
                 C                      D
It’s eating me inside, it’s eating me inside.
                        C      D
Maybe one day we’ll be fine.
Maybe one day we’ll be..


Chorus 1:

 G                                                                   Em
All on our own, left here alone with what’s left of the best of the money held back.
                                                     C
Money once saved from the toil and the test oh the bargaining fear.
                                             D
We won’t have enough to last us forever but maybe the year.
And that’s long enough cause we’ll both be together.

       G                                                                 Em
We’re all on our own, left here alone with what’s left of the best, the money held back.
                                                    C
Money once saved from the toil and the test, the bargaining fear.
                                             D
We won’t have enough to last us forever but maybe the year.
And that’s long enough cause we’ll both be together.
       C                      D
It’s eating me inside, it’s eating me inside.
                        G
Maybe one day we’ll be fine.

G Em C D (x1)


Pre-Chorus:

 G                                                                   Em
     There must be something wrong. There must be something wrong with me.
                                                                 C
There must be something wrong. There must be something wrong with me.
                                  D
There must be something wrong with me. There must be something wrong.
 G                                                  Em
     One day we’ll all be fine, one day we’ll all be fine.
                                               C
One day we’ll all be fine, one day we’ll all be fine.
                          D
One day we’ll all be fine, one day we’ll all be...


Chorus 2:

 G                                                                   Em
All on our own, left here alone with what’s left of the best of the money held back.
                                                     C
Money once saved from the toil and the test oh the bargaining fear.
    D
We won’t have enough to last us forever...
       G                                                                   Em
We’re all on our own, left here alone with what’s left of the best of the money held back.
                                                      C
Money once saved from the toil and the test, oh the bargaining fear.
                                             D
We won’t have enough to last us forever but maybe the year.
And that’s long enough cause we’ll both be together.
       C                          D
It’s eating me inside, oh, it’s eating me inside.
                        G
