Chords

Based on live versions by Noel Gallagher's High Flying Birds in 2023 (BBC / Jools Holland / Live shows) I believe Noel (or Gem) occasionally play "D Dsus4 D" at the end of some of the lines of the verses as well as the intro (but maybe not all). Noel also does not appear to play the full G chord - sliding up from the Am and only playing the D, G and B strings. Chords are relative to capo. [Intro] Dsus4 (strum repeatedly for 4 bars) Am G Gsus4 G Em D Dsus4 D Am G Gsus4 G Em D Dsus4 D [Verse 1]
Am                      G Gsus4 G
When routine bites hard

Em                  D
and ambitions are low

Am                      G Gsus4 G
And resentment rides high

Em                  D
but emotions won't grow

Am                      G Gsus4 G
And we're changing our ways

Em                  D
taking different roads
[Chorus]
Am         G Gsus4 G         Em        D
Then love, love will tear us apart again

Am         G Gsus4 G         Em        D
Love, love will tear us apart again
[Interlude] Dsus4 (strum repeatedly for 4 bars) Am G Gsus4 G Em D Dsus4 D Am G Gsus4 G Em D Dsus4 D [Verse 2]
Am                      G Gsus4 G
Why is the bedroom so cold?

Em                  D
You've turned away on your side

Am                      G Gsus4 G
Is my timing that flawed?

Em                  D
Our respect runs so dry

Am                      G Gsus4 G
Yet there's still this appeal

Em                  D
that we've kept through our lives
[Chorus]
Am         G Gsus4 G         Em        D
But love, love will tear us apart again

Am         G Gsus4 G         Em        D
Love, love will tear us apart again
[Interlude] Dsus4 (strum repeatedly for 4 bars) Am G Gsus4 G Em D Dsus4 D Am G Gsus4 G Em D Dsus4 D [Verse 3]
Am                      G Gsus4 G
Do you cry out in your sleep,

Em                  D
all my failings exposed?

Am                      G Gsus4 G
There's a taste in my mouth

Em                  D
as desperation takes hold

Am                      G Gsus4 G
Just that something so good,

Em                  D
just can't function no more
[Chorus]
Am         G Gsus4 G         Em        D
But love, love will tear us apart again

Am         G Gsus4 G         Em        D
Love, love will tear us apart again

Am         G Gsus4 G         Em        D
Then love, love will tear us apart again

Am         G Gsus4 G         Em        D
Love, love will tear us apart again
[Outro]
Dsus4
