One Love chords by Marianas Trench

Chords with lyrics

Hey guys :)
I heard the song, didn't see many tabs, so I figured I'd upload the way I play it for now. I'm not sure that
all of the chords are entirely accurate to the orchestral background, but they do work well with the vocals
and if you play it with the song it doesn't clash with anything. The timing of the chords is generally on the
third syllable of the line but sometimes changes, so I've marked that in. If a chord is marked right after a
word, it is generally played on the last syllable of the word or as you cut off- you can hear the close
changes in the song if you listen for the piano solid chords.
Enjoy!

Standard Tuning, no capo.


D MajorD
I wake up tonight

feeling paper thin and I'm paper white
     B minorBm
You say "just come back to bed"

Voice sounds strange, but I soon forget
     G+G
And your sad blue eyes like mine

Full of pity now, but I don't know why
     A augmentedA
The light dims without regret

'Till now your nothing more than a silhouette
     D MajorD
But just hold quick you're fading right
   B minorBm
In a cold trick of the light
     G+G                  A augmentedA
I'm just so sick, I thought you'd might be here
(no chord)     D MajorD
But you di-disappear

D MajorD                    G+G
Now I wake up and I forget that you were gone
                    B minorBm
A augmentedA phantom limb is all that I am hanging on
            G+G
Don't stop, no stopping yet
                        D MajorD
What if one true love's the only one that you get?
                         G+G
And you've been wishing but you don't know how to stay
                   B minorBm
And I've broken but I'm better every day
              G+G
So don't stop, no stopping yet
                         D MajorD
What if one true love's the only one that you get?

D MajorD
One love, one love, one love you get
G+G
One love, one love, one love you get
B minorBm
One love, one love, one love you get
G+G
One love, one love, one love you get

D MajorD
Lost and gone so fast

You get me every time but I live with that
    B minorBm
I might do this to myself

Only made it worse but I just can't help
     G+G
You know I get so attached

Listen everyday till the dark is back
   A augmentedA
Now I pine for phantom pain

Its the only time that I see your face
    D MajorD
So just hold quick you're fading right
   B minorBm
In a cold trick of the light
     G+G                  A augmentedA
I'm just so sick, I thought you'd might be here
(no chord)      D MajorD
But you di-disappear

D MajorD                    G+G
Now I wake up and I forget that you were gone
                    B minorBm
A augmentedA phantom limb is all that I am hanging on
            G+G
Don't stop, no stopping yet
                        D MajorD
What if one true love's the only one that you get?
                         G+G
And you've been wishing but you don't know how to stay
                   B minorBm
And I've broken but I'm better every day
              G+G
So don't stop, no stopping yet
                         D MajorD
What if one true love's the only one that you get?


D MajorD
One love, one love, one love you get
B minorBm
One love, one love, one love you get
G+G
One love, one love, one love you get
A augmentedA
One love, one love, one love you get

B minorBm   G+G     A augmentedA
What if you still feel me too still?
B minorBm        G+G       A augmentedA       G+G
What if there was still a way of taking care of this?

(*One Strum Only)
D*                  G*
What if I wake up tonight and you are real?
                   Bm*
What if we could find a way to try to heal?
                G*
What if there's no stopping us yet?
                          D*
What if the one true love's the only one that you get?
                    G*
What if there was still a reason not to go?
                    B minorBm (on beat 1, 2, 3, 4, as downstrokes, continued until "one love")
What if there was still a little bit of hope?
               G+G
So don't stop, no stopping it yet
                        D MajorD (resume normal strumming pattern)
What if one true love's the only one that you get?
