Verse 1:
Em       Em/F#         Em/G          B7
After it happened when all the smoke cleared
Em         Em/F#        Em/G        B7
How did it feel to you, did it seem weird?
       C
Such a charmed life
             G
Nothing ever mattered
               C        B7
Everything was yours to take
C       B7
One mis-take, and

Em         Em/F#       Em/G       B7
Everything fell apart, everything changed
Em             Em/F#         Em/G     B7
Sitting there, bleeding out, isn't it strange?
          C
When they hit you
                  G
You can feel them hit you
                C       B7
Weaknesses they all can see
C         B7
Just like me

Chorus 1:
         E           Emaj7          E7                 A
Now your heart's all done, but your head won't let you run
                       E
You're dying where you stand
         E        Emaj7
All this wait and see
         E7                A
All this what will be will be
                      B                  Em
That sounds like the plan of an Ordinary Man

Bridge:
        Am                   A
You say no one tells you the ending
       D         Dm
But it ends this way
        Am                  A
You can take it back if you want it
       D        Dm       E
But it might be over any-way

Verse 2:
Em          Em/F#       Em/G      B7
Haven't you done enough saving by now?
Em              Em/F#        Em/G       B7
Can't they take care of each other some-how?
        C
All the questions
             G
Is it really over?
            C        B7
Is he gonna take the fall?
C        B7
Worst of all you

Em             Em/F#         Em/G        B7
Start to think maybe they're right about you
Em         Em/F#     Em/G       B7
Maybe it's over now, maybe it's true
        C
And you know you're
            G
Never gonna stand up
              C           B7
Be who you're supposed to be
C         B7
Just like me

Chorus 2:
            E           Emaj7          E7                 A
'Cause your heart's all done, but your head won't let you run
                       E
You're dying where you stand
         E        Emaj7
All this wait and see
         E7                A
All this what will be will be
