I tried to make this so it's relatively close to the original piano backing.
It's not perfect but I think it sounds pretty cool.


Standard Tuning
Capo 1st fret

[Verse1] (single, soft thumb-strums)
               Gadd9             D      Asus4
Don't put your eyes down, you're not to blame
  Dsus2/F#       Gadd9        D       Asus4
I know there are stories, you can't explain
    Dsus2/F#     Gadd9     D         Aadd4
But if I should  find you, black and blue
    Dsus2/F#     Gadd9        D         Aadd4      Dsus2/F#
And aching from  crying, I'll wait with  you
Gadd9      D      Aadd4
Grow,      gro -  ow

[Chorus1] (delicate, but passionate, driving Strumming{1})

Em7add4  Gadd9     Dadd9                    Aadd4  Asus4
 Oh,     so    you know it all, then it's gone
Em7add4  Gadd9      Dadd9                  Aadd4  Asus4
 Grow,   grow  you know I'm here holding on
Em7add4          Gadd9                Dadd9        Aadd4  Asus4
 Tying up your   loose ends and your   drifting estee  -  eem
Em7add4  Gadd9        Dadd9                     Aadd4    A3add4(broken{2})
 Grow,   grow  if you never try, you'll  never know


[Verse2] (picked{3})
                Gadd9       D      Aadd4
I've left you a white page, by the door
        Dsus2      Gadd9   D         Aadd4
There's no need to ask me, what it's for
  Dsus2       Gadd9          D      Aadd4
I wait by the front step for your return
    Dsus2      Gadd9    D           Aadd4    Aadd4(Strummed{4})
And hear every story of what you've learned

[Chorus2] (less delicate strumming{1})

Em7add4  Gadd9     Dadd9                    Aadd4  Asus4
 Oh,     so    you know it all, then it's gone
Em7add4  Gadd9      Dadd9                  Aadd4  Asus4
 Grow,   grow  you know I'm here holding on
Em7add4          Gadd9                Dadd9        Aadd4  Asus4
 Tying up your   loose ends and your   drifting estee  -  eem
Em7add4  Gadd9        Dadd9                     Aadd4   Asus4
 Grow,   grow  if you never try, you'll  never know

[Breakdown] (Thumb-Strums)

Gadd9      D      Aadd4   A/F# (picked{4})
Grow,      gro -  ow
Gadd9      D      Aadd4
Grow,      gro -  ow

[Bridge] (intensifying down-strums)

Dadd9      F#m7         Em7add4   G6add9                 (Amaj7sus4/G)

Dadd9      F#m7         Em7add4   G6add9      Aadd4
Throw your arms out and grow your heart       out
D          F#m          Em              G
Throw your arms out and grow your heart out

Throw your arms out and grow your heart out

Grow,      gro -  ow

Dsus2/F#       Gadd9             D      Asus4
Don't put your eyes down, you're not to blame
  Dsus2/F#       Gadd9                 D/F#
I know there are stories, you can't explain

Capo 1st fret = everything is a half step higher in reality

   (don't hit A-string - it sounds weird going into the next chord)


Oh, and:
The A chords are not quite right.
You'd want that friction of the pretty high 3 and 4 lying
directly on top of eachother. But then there's this 'melody' from 3 to 4.
The lowest notes of the piano (not the synth bass) go 3-1-5. You need that 5th for it
to not sound wishy washy. ... . I found this impossible to realize on guitar.
These are my thoughts and this is my best approximation.
So feel free to edit this if you come up with something better!

   take this shape but put your pinky on fret 11 of the D-String. then move it
   to fret 12. Then play the little A3add4{2} triad.
