🎸 Verse 1:
C#add9            Fm7
Yesterday I flew across the world
     G#           D#/G
And started a revolution
     C#add9                    Fm7
But truth be told I’m trying to find myself
        G#       D#/G
In a lovesick evolution


🎸 Pre-Chorus:
C#add9 G#                  D#/G
   Oh somebody tell me I’m fine
        Fm7       D#/G
And that I’m gonna be alright
C#add9      G#                  D#/G
   Oh cause nobody’s looking to die
              Fm7    D#/G
When they’re happy inside


🎸 Chorus:
       C#add9     G#
But it is what it is
       D#/G           Fm7 D#/G
And it hurts, make it fast
        C#add9     G#
Well it is what it is
        D#/G         Fm7 D#/G
It gets worse and it lasts
   C#add9                  G#                   D#/G
I never had the chance to promise I’d never let go
            Fm7 D#/G
But you let go
       C#add9     G#
But it is what it is
       D#/G           Fm7 D#/G
And it hurts, make it fast


🎸 Verse 2:
C#add9                     Fm7
Today’s the day I’m coming home again
        G#                   D#/G
But I’m further and further away now
  C#add9                     Fm7
I won’t leave my bed cause a part of me is dead
      G#                   Fm7 D#/G C#add9
I forgot to face all your pictures down


🎸 Pre-Chorus:
     G#                  D#/G
Oh somebody tell me I’m fine
         Fm7      D#/G
And that I’m gonna be alright
C#add9      G#                  D#/G
   Oh cause nobody’s looking to die
              Fm7    D#/G
When they’re happy inside


🎸 Chorus:
       C#add9     G#
But it is what it is
       D#/G           Fm7 D#/G
And it hurts, make it fast
        C#add9     G#
Well it is what it is
        D#/G         Fm7 D#/G
It gets worse and it lasts
   C#add9                  G#                   D#/G
I never had the chance to promise I’d never let go
            Fm7 D#/G
But you let go
       C#add9     G#
But it is what it is
       D#/G           Fm7 A#
And it hurts, make it fast
