Guitar chords with lyrics

Intro:  Em | D - G | C | B7 |

Verse:
           Am7          Em7
Running around chasing hearts,
  D      G                 D
chasing bodies to fix the parts.
   G          Am7              Em7
I don't know how I reached this place,
    D        G                    D
so far from heaven, so far from grace.

Pre-Chorus:
G      Am
And I want to give in to the pressure,
                        Em
'cause I feel like the city's got the better of me.
D         G                         D
Oh, this casual love isn't what it seems,
G       Am
and I try to imagine something closer
         Em
and somebody who is good for me
 D      C
I'm so tired of all this searching,
B7
Do I, do I, do I, do I?

Chorus:
 C          G           D           Em   D
Go home to nothing or stay out for more?
 C          G          D            Em  D
Give in to someone or lock down my door?
     C            Em       D                Am7  B5
Or drown all my shadows, drown them like before?
  G          B7           Em | D - G | C | B7 |
Drowning shadows once more.

Verse 2:
             Am7              Em7
The more I drink, the more I drown,
   D         G                    D
If I'm not thinking, I won't lay down.
     G      Am7          Em7
The more I rise above it all,
     D      G              D
The less I care about the fall.

Pre-Chorus:
G      Am
And I want to give in to the pressure,
                        Em
'cause I feel like the city's got the better of me.
D         G                         D
Oh, this casual love isn't what it seems,
G       Am
and I try to imagine something closer
         Em
and somebody who is good for me
 D      C
I'm so tired of all this searching,
B7
Do I, do I, do I, do I?

Chorus:
 C          G           D           Em   D
Go home to nothing or stay out for more?
 C          G          D            Em  D
Give in to someone or lock down my door?
     C            Em       D                Am7  B5
Or drown all my shadows, drown them like before?
  G          B7           Em | D - G | C | B7 |
Drowning shadows once more.
       Em | D - G | C | B7 |
Once more.
       Em | F - C | B7 |
Once more.

Chorus:
 C          G           D           Em   D
Go home to nothing or stay out for more?
 C          G          B7
Give in to someone or lock down my door?
     C            Em       D                Am7  B5
Or drown all my shadows, drown them like before?
  G          B7           Am7
Drowning shadows once more.
