Chords

works best with power phords if played electric. Full barr chords will sound good acoustic. I'll only be notating the full chord varients, just exclude the top 2/3 strings for each chord if playing electric. Chord shapes: C#m : x 4 6 6 5 4 E : x 7 9 9 9 7 A (pre chorus) : x 12 14 14 14 12 B (pre chorus) : x 2 4 4 4 2 A (chorus) : 5 7 7 6 5 5 B (chorus) : 7 9 9 8 7 7 [Verse 1]
C#m
Maybe I'm a pessimist

                E
What if all the gray clouds in the sky
Would follow me home tonight? [Verse 2]
C#m
Maybe I'm an atheist

                   E
What if there's no God waiting to meet me
At the end of the working week? [Pre-Chorus]
A     E        B              A      E
Maybe I'm just delicate

B
Maybe I am
[Chorus]
A        E      B
Just not clever enough to persuade

     A          E              B
Everyone of the reasons, we're failing each other

    A                  C#m             B
And it's not the same, not the same to me

    A                  E               B
No, it's not the same, not the same to me
[Verse 3]
C#m
Maybe I'm an optimist

                E
What if all the damage that was done
Was never done to me? [Verse 4]
C#m
Maybe I'm a liar

                B
What if all the truths that I have told
Are better left, better left unsaid? [Pre-Chorus]
A     E        B              A      E
Maybe I'm just delicate

B
Maybe I am
[Chorus]
A        E      B
Just not clever enough to persuade

     A          E              B
Everyone of the reasons, we're failing each other

    A                  C#m             B
And it's not the same, not the same to me

    A                  C#m             B
No, it's not the same, not the same to me
[Bridge]
A C#m
      What sticks to me

A C#m
      Sticks to you like glue

A C#m
      What sticks to me

A B
    Sticks to you like glue
[Pre-Chorus]
A     E        B              A      E
Maybe I'm just delicate

B
Maybe I am
[Chorus]
A        E      B
Just not clever enough to persuade

     A          E              B
Everyone of the reasons, we're failing each other

    A                  C#m             B
And it's not the same, not the same to me

    A                  C#m             B
No, it's not the same, not the same to me

                                 A      E     B
So I'll pack up my bags and leave

                                 A      E     B (hold that final B and let it fade out)
Pack up my bags and leave
