Chords

Attempt to capture chords to play along with the official lyric video: I used a pre-release live performance for reference: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2pFvGTG5nQ4 Based on the closeup view in his "Subtract Sundays" video for this song, it looks like he will hammer on to fret 2 for the F and C chords in the chorus when he plays this live. [Verse 1]
                F       C       G
Sycamore in the summer, bearing leaves

                          F         C    G
Swing, you're pushing our daughter u-nderneath

                     F       C      G
Flowers bloom in the garden, swayin breeze

               F           C        G
Just imagine a world where we could be
[Pre-Chorus 1]
                 Am7                   C
Right now in the waiting room emotions running wild

G
Worried 'bout my lover and I'm worried 'bout our child

Am7                   C
Part of me was always in denial

     G
It's gonna take a little while
[Chorus 1]
           F      C        G
But in our story, love in, love out

       F    C    G
We are gloriou-us

           F      C        G
But in our story, love in, love out

       F    C    G
We are gloriou-us
[Verse 2]
                  F          C       G
Sycamore bringing shade from beating sun

                    F       C       G
Nothing more than a word, a smoking gun

                 F       C     G
What a puzzle is this to be in love

                    F           C        G
To be planting your roots, then dig them up
[Pre-Chorus 2]
              Am7                    C
Waiting on professionals to tell you how it is

G
What's he gonna say after, "I think you better sit"

Am7                          C
Brace yourself, something's about to hit

     G
It's gonna take a little while
[Chorus 2]
           F      C        G
But in our story, love in, love out

       F    C    G
We are gloriou-us

            F      C        G
But, in our story, love in, love out

       F    C    G
We are gloriou-us

            F      C        G
But, in our story, love in, love out

       F    C    G
We are gloriou-us

            F      C        G
But, in our story, love in, love out

       F    C    G
We are gloriou-us
[Outro]
                F        C      G
Sycamore in the field, a lonely tree

                     F       C       G
Darling, what will become of you and me?
