Chords

Great song, really simple chord progression with nice walking bass line. The A-chord in the first line is more of a leading note to the Bm. [Verse]
D          D/F# G               A Bm
You want a love,    a love for us

           A
You want a selfless love

     G             D/F#
That we can always say we trust, oh

Em       D/F#          G      D/F#
Love has always been a mockery

Em          D/F#               G      A
of those in love and scared to be lonely
[Verse]
D            D/F#  G                 A  Bm
Dont wanna lo----ve, dont wanna hurt

            A          G
If all that loneliness requires

      D/F#
Just anothers comfort

Em     D/F#        G         D/F#
Better off being a lonely road

Em           D/F#      G       A
Cause theres beauty in being alone
[Pre-Chorus]
G                       A
Today were arguing, its not worth making

Bm                     D
Another person that is yours for the taking

          G
Or you're hoping and praying

      Gm
We'll do more than saying that
[Chorus]
D                         D/F# G
Love, love, love, love is just greed

     D      A      G
Its almost taking me

    D      A
But now I can see

D                         D/F# G
Love, love, love, love is just greed

You follow or you leave

If we really love ourselves, how can you love somebody else

A love to u---s, a love to them

            A          G
Its just a history repeating

       D/F#
Itself time and time again

Em      D/F#          G              D/F#
Love is not a vail to hide your voice

Em       D/F#              G        A
All this talk of love just turns to noise

D             D/F# G              A Bm
Say you want lo--ve, a love so tough

         A                     G
But even all these truths dont seem

                 D/F#
As though theyre adding up, oh

Em     D/F#        G       D/F#
Havent you already had enough

Whats this suffering remind you of?
[Pre-Chorus]

Someday well all agree, its not worth making

D                      Bm

Or you're hoping and praying

      Gm
We'll do more than saying that
[Chorus]

Of whats gone sour once was glory, glory

Honey could you put your arms around me slow

G               D/F#            Em           D/F#
Tell me things about you that I wouldnt know
