Intro: FF DmDm x2
Verse 1:
FF           DmDm      FF     DmDm
You tremble like you'd seen a ghost and i gave in
FF           DmDm          FF        DmDm
I lack the things you need the most you said, where have you been
FF           DmDm          FF       DmDm
You wasted all that sweetness to run and hide, I wonder why
FF            DmDm             FF       DmDm
I remind you of the days you poured your heart into, but you never tried

Pre-Chorus:
DmDm
I've fallen from grace
DmDm
Took a blow to my face
  Bb majorBb
I've loved and I've lost
  C majorC
I've loved and I've lost

Chorus:
 Bb majorBb   DmDm    FF
Explosions...on the day you wake up
FF             DmDm C majorC  A minorAm
Needing somebody and you've learned
    Bb majorBb   FF
It's okay to be afraid
Bb majorBb             FF  DmDm
But it will never be the same
            FF    DmDm
It will never be the same

Verse 2:
FF          DmDm
You left my soul bleeding in the dark
FF        DmDm
So you could be king
FF           DmDm           FF          DmDm
The rules you set are still untold to me and I lost faith in everything

Pre-Chorus 2:
     A minorAm             DmDm
The nights you could cope, your intentions were gold
      A minorAm
But the mountains will shake
      C majorC
I need to know I can still make

Chorus 2:
 Bb majorBb   DmDm    FF
Explosions...on the day you wake up
FF             DmDm C majorC  A minorAm
Needing somebody and you've learned
    Bb majorBb   FF
It's okay to be afraid
Bb majorBb             FF  DmDm
But it will never be the same
            DmDm FF G minorGm Bb majorBb
It will never be the same

Bridge:
DmDm
And as the floods move in
FF
And your body starts to sink
G minorGm
I was the last thing on your mind
Bb majorBb
I know you better than you think
DmDm            C majorC          G minorGm
Cause it's simple darling, I gave you a warning
           Bb majorBb               DmDm
Now everything you own is falling from the sky in pieces
         FF         G minorGm
So watch them fall with you, in slow motion
              Bb majorBb
I pray that you will find peace of mind
          DmDm
And I'll find you another time
C majorC           G minorGm
I'll love you, another time

Final Chorus:

Bb majorBb   DmDm    FF
Explosions...on the day you wake up
FF             DmDm C majorC  A minorAm
Needing somebody and you've learned
    Bb majorBb   FF
It's okay to be afraid
Bb majorBb             FF  DmDm
But it will never be the same
            FF    DmDm
It will never be the same

Outro: FF  DmDm x4
Finish on FF
