Before The Line chords by Dodie

Tuning: Standard (E A D G B E)

🎸 Verse 1:
C          F                                 C
 I used to smile at every star and thank the sky
C           F                           C
 Now I look up to all the duds and wonder why
           D7
I feel like  all of them are gone
Fm
  Can't feel a single one


🎸 Verse 2:
    C              F                          C
And so I stretch my eyes across the land and sea
  C               F                           C
I know I loved the world, but now it's flat to me
                D7
Oh, tell me, did someone snatch the light?
Fm
  Why doesn't it look right?

🎸 Chorus:
C         Gm             F
 I made a promise, but I break it every day
C            Gm               F
 It's not my fault, for I was promised just the same
G#                              A#
Once I saw fire, and all I know is something happened
             F  C
Did I let it go?

Fm C


🎸 Verse 3:
                            F
Now every morning since the line between my lives
C                               F
 I greet the sun and ask, "Have I already died?
            D7
If not, then  why am I alone?
Fm
  And when can I come home?"


🎸 Bridge:

Oh, and I am lying when I say
                            D
It's time to let her float away
                              C#
No, I'm still clawing for the strings
                       Fm
Oh, I'd do any fucking thing
                           D#
I know I have to close the door
                       D
Too much to miss it anymore

I think that this really is it
C#
  I'll have to take what I can get

I'll have to take what I can get

What I can get


🎸 Chorus:
C         Gm             F
 I made a promise, but I break it every day
C            Gm               F
 It's not my fault, for I was promised just the same
G#                              A#
Once I saw fire, and all I know is something happened
             F  C
Did I let it go?
C         Gm             F
 I made a promise, but I break it every day
C            Gm               F
 It's not my fault, for I was promised just the same
G#                              A#
Once I saw fire, and all I know is something happened

Did I let it go?
G#                              A#
Once I saw fire, and all I know is something happened

Did I let it go?
