A couple quick notes on chords:
1. The open A in parenthesis is optional, but I think it makes for a fuller sound, especially if playing
acoustic.
2. The D chords at the end of the chorus are meant to go with the melody of the lyrics. If you want to play
like the song though I think it technically goes Dsus4 - Dm - Dsus2 - Dm changing right on the beat.
[Verse]
Am7 Wherever I go, wherever I go, Em/G I have to question the hand that I hold close. Fmaj7 Wherever I go, wherever I go, Dsus2 I have to silence the words that you fear most. Am7 Don't ever let go, don't ever let go, Em/G are we destined to hit the ground below? Fmaj7 Don't ever let go, don't ever let go, Dsus2 We're at the end of a burning tightrope.
[Chorus]
F Now I'm waiting on the corner in the back of your mind, Am7 it's a lonely place to live, and I got nowhere to hide. G Dsus4 (Dm) Dsus2 Cause you told me that you'd never be afraid of heights again. F Nobody ever thought that we could make it this high, Am7 you're the only one I'd follow till the end of time. G Dsus4 (Dm) Dsus2 If we fall, we fall together baby, don't think twice again.
[Verse]
Am7 Together I know, together I know Em/G that we'd burn like a rockets afterglow. Fmaj7 Together I know, together I know, Dsus2 we could conquer the stars beyond this world. Am7 We let it all go, we let it all go, Em/G I'm just a voice on a broken radio. Fmaj7 We let it all go, we let it all go, Dsus2 we got lost in the constellations.
[Chorus]
F Now I'm waiting on the corner in the back of your mind, Am7 it's a lonely place to live, and I got nowhere to hide. G Dsus4 (Dm) Dsus2 Cause you told me that you'd never be afraid of heights again. F Nobody ever thought that we could make it this high, Am7 you're the only one I'd follow till the end of time. G Dsus4 (Dm) Dsus2 If we fall, we fall together baby, don't think twice again.
[Bridge]
Am7 G F Dsus2 X2
Am7 G And after all of these years, and all of this time. F Dsus2 Darling, if I'm still a question in your mind, G Am7 just say the words and this will end.
[Chorus]
F You told me that you'd never be afraid of heights, Am7 you told me that you'd nver be afraid of heights, G Dsus4 (Dm) Dsus2 you told me we should never be afraid of heights again... F You told me that you'd never be afraid of heights, Am7 you told me that you'd never be afraid of heights, G Dsus4 (Dm) Dsus2 if we fall, we fall together baby don't think twice again...
[Outro]
Am7 Em/G Wherever I go, wherever I go, I hear your voice on a broken radio. Fmaj7 Dsus2 Wherever I go, wherever I go, I know we'll burn like a rockets afterglow. Am7 Em/G Don't ever let go, don't ever let go, so are we destined to hit the ground below? Fmaj7 Dsus2 Don't ever let go, don't ever let go, are we just watching the final chapter close?
End on Am7
