Intro:
(Strum this out, I havent given any real indication for timing here.
Listen to the song or watch the acoustic version on youtube to gain a better understanding.
Most strums are downwards, but I like to play the little part where you add the 9th fret to the D#m7 as a
a quick up and dopwn strum on the bottom three strings)

Verse:
(For the G#m7 and G#m9 chords I usually just play three downstrums for each)
C#m7     F#7             Bmaj7   G#m7 G#m9
Wandering the streets all through the night
C#m7       F#7        Bmaj7   G#m7 G#m9
Searching for the one to make me right
C#m7     F#7         Bmaj7   G#m7 G#m9
Wondering if she's the shade of you
C#m7        F#7        Bmaj7   G#m7 G#m9
And if so, should I try to see it through


Chorus:
(Again I play three downstrums for each G#m7 and G#m9). Phum hits on the C#m7 when playing, like so:
e|-4---|
B|-4h5-|
G|-4---|
D|-4h6-|
A|-4---|
E|-x---|

Emaj7       C#m7
Darling, I got my trust issues
Bmaj7      G#m7 G#m9
Warning, you stay away
Emaj7       C#m7
If we meet at the rendezvous
Bmaj7     G#m7 G#m9
Take me away, sunray

Emaj7       C#m7
Darling, I got my trust issues
Bmaj7      G#m7 G#m9
Warning, you stay away
Emaj7       C#m7
If we meet at the rendezvous
Bmaj7     G#m7 G#m9
Take me away, sunray


Verse:
C#m7
Time and toys
  F#7         Bmaj7   G#m7 G#m9
May fill my heart with joy
C#m7         F#7      Bmaj7   G#m7 G#m9
I'll know peace when I'm your lover boy


Bridge:
       G#maj7   Bmaj7
I'll be your new school soul
G#maj7   C#maj7
Silver and gold
G#maj7 Bmaj7
New desire
G#maj7   Emaj7
Friends on fire
D#m7 Dm7 C#m7 F#9 Bmaj7 (each one of these chords is played once)
Call me 'lo----ver boy'

Repeat Chorus and Intro once each to finish song.
In the official video Phum then plays the end of the bridge (from Emaj7 to Bmaj7) and then the chorus and
intro again.
