Chords

All of this is played on piano, obviously. But it also sounds good in an acoustic guitar arrangement. The song is in 4/4, generally, and BPM 100, but in the chorus the measure changes to 3/4 (112 BPM). I got this information from the pro tabs on here, but you can definitely hear a tempo change going on. Actually the chord progression in the verse should be something like C#m Csus2 C#5 B | B5 B B5 C#5 But I've decided not to write it more complicated below than it has to be. The most natural way to play this would be in Drop C# or alternatively Eb tuning, so transpose the chords +1 if you're doing that, to match the original recording. [Intro] 4/4 BPM 100 C#m B B C#5 [Verse 1]
 C#m                B      B         C#5
From the birds eye view,   God only knew

        C#m            B    B              C#5
We were too rich to entice, too poor for a price

        C#m               B                B          C#5

From beneath these bones, God only knows

Who's too dark to reach, too bright to teach

        C#m               B                B          C#5
