Chords

Attempt to capture chords to play along with this song Passenger has written for a new musical: Where I have the (E) in the interlude, he plays the Am chord and then plucks just the open high E string before moving to the Em. [Intro] Am Am7 G/B Dm Dsus2 Dm Am G [Verse 1]
    Am                            Em
I’m sorry sir but sadly you can’t talk with her today

    Dm                                    Am        G
Are you the man that’s travelling from so very far away?

    Am                           Em
She has no friends or family she has no next of kin

      Dm                              Am           G
These cases tend to end quite quickly after they begin

    Fsus2                          C
So imagine our surprise to see the light shine in her eyes

G                               Am
Every time she sees one of your postcards has arrived

     Fsus2                            E7              Am
So although it sounds ridiculous it’s really quite miraculous

  Fsus2                             Gsus4  G
I think you might be helping her survive
[Chorus 1]
Fsus2      G          C  G/B Am
So keep on walking Mr. Fry

Fsus2         G             C     G/B Am
For there’s a magic in your stride

Fsus2         E7               Am
 I don’t know how I don’t know why

    D                  G Gsus4 G
But sometimes if you try

Fsus2            G                 Am
Even when you’re falling you can fly

Fsus2        G            Am  Em
 So keep on walking Mr. Fry
[Interlude] Fsus2 Gsus4 G Am (E) Em F Fadd9 G [Verse 2]
       Am                          Em
Well I must admit I felt as if you hadn’t understood

    Dm                            Am                  G
The weight of queenie’s situation like we thought you would

  Am                           Em
I didn’t see how walking could save a mortal soul

     Dm                                  Am            G
I’ve learnt over the years what’s in and out of our control

    Fsus2                         C
So imagine our delight to see her carry on and fight

        G                             Am
She’s a candle in the window and your faith keeps her alight

     Fsus2                           E7                Am
So although it may be lost on us and frankly sounds preposterous

  Fsus2                               Gsus4 G
I think you might be keeping her alive
[Chorus 2]
Fsus2        G           C  G/B Am
 So keep on walking Mr. Fry

Fsus2         G             C  G/B Am G Gsus4
For you’ve a power at your side

Fsus2         E7               Am
 I don’t know how I don’t know why

    D                  G Gsus4 G
But sometimes if you try

Fsus2            G                 Am
Even when you’re falling you can fly

Fsus2        G            C
 So keep on walking Mr. Fry
[Outro]
        Fsus2     G        C       G/B       Am
For she waits for you like summer waits for rain

     Fsus2  G             C        G/B   Am  G
With hope renewed and the patience of a saint

    Fsus2     E7         Am             D
She waits for you for as long as she sustains

  Fsus2        G            Am
I hope you can understand why

Fsus2            G             C
You must keep on walking Mr. Fry
