Leave A Trace chords by CHVRCHES

This song is great, and I'm so excited for the new album!

If you have any questions, email me at youaresurrounding@gmail.com because this tab may be slightly
inaccurate due to the fact that this song is so new. I also did this completely by ear, but I'm pretty
sure that it's correct. If you have any changes, I'll test them out and put them in.

NOTE: For the E in the chorus, I prefer doing a barred E rather than an open E because it sounds more
consistent to the song.

CHVRCHES - Leave a Trace

A
I gave up on time

Just like you said you would

There are tiny cracks of light underneath me
                       F#m
And you say I got it wrong
                                  A
But I tried hard to uncover them

A
I have somehow got

Away with everything

Anything you ever did was strictly by design
                 F#m
But you got it wrong
                               A
And I'll go anywhere but there

E
And you had best believe
                  D
That you cannot build what I don't need
        E             D
And I know I need to feel relief
        E
And I know you'll never fold
                 D
But I believe nothing that I'm told
        E              D
And I know I need to feel relief

    E              D
I know I need to feel released
E
Take care to tell it just how as it was
D
Take care to tell on me for the cause
    E              D
I know I need to feel released
E
Take care to bury all that you can
D
Take care to leave a trace of a man

A
I will show restraint

Just like we said we should

You think I'll apologize for things I left behind
                F#m
But you got it wrong
                           A
And I'm as sane as I ever was

A
You talk far too much

For someone so unkind

I will wipe the salt off of my skin
                              F#m
And I'll admit that I got it wrong
                                A
And there is grey between the lines

E
And you had best believe
                  D
That you cannot build what I don't need
        E             D
And I know I need to feel relief
        E
And I know you'll never fold
                 D
But I believe nothing that I'm told
        E              D
And I know I need to feel relief

    E              D
I know I need to feel released
E
Take care to tell it just how as it was
D
Take care to tell on me for the cause
    E              D
I know I need to feel released
E
Take care to bury all that you can
D
Take care to leave a trace of a man

F#m               C#m     Bm
I know, I know, I know, I know
F#m               C#m     Bm
I know, I know, I know, I know

    E              D
I know I need to feel released
E
Take care to tell it just how as it was
D
Take care to tell on me for the cause
    E              D
I know I need to feel released
E
Take care to bury all that you can
D
Take care to leave a trace of a man

F#m               C#m     Bm
I know, I know, I know, I know
F#m               C#m     Bm
I know, I know, I know, I know
