Chords

[Intro] E Esus4 E Esus4 x2 [Verse 1]
E       Esus4 E
Hold me

  Esus4     E     Esus4 E Esus4
Before I go under

E       Esus4 E
Hear me

  Esus4  E     Esus4 E Esus4
Before I drown

E       Esus4 E
Sharpen

     Esus4    E      Esus4 E Esus4
Your sense of wonder

E      Esus4 E
Listen

   Esus4     E     Esus4 E Esus4
To what I've found
[Chorus]
A                F#m
Here we are again

A             F#m       E     Esus4 E
Two old lovers, two old friends
[Verse 2]
     Esus4    E        Esus4 E Esus4
Just when you need 'em

E       Esus4 E
A devil

    Esus4          E     Esus4 E Esus4
Was standing on my shoes

E       Esus4 E
Somehow

  Esus4       E          Esus4 E Esus4
I know how to defeat him

E       Esus4 E
Since I

        Esus4 E   Esus4 E Esus4
Tumbled into you
[Chorus]
    A                     F#m
You taught me Love and Pain

        A              F#m
And the unsung King of Ireland

         E         Esus4 E
Says the same thing
[Verse 3]
    Esus4    E       Esus4 E Esus4
Wherever you find it

E              Esus4 E
The same thing

         Esus4    E     Esus4 E
From the same old cause

            Esus4      E          Esus4 E
I'm talking about that same thing

  Esus4  E         Esus4 E
I cannot define it

   Esus4  E          Esus4 E
It is the same thing

       Esus4  E   Esus4 E Esus4
And it always was
[Chorus]
   A                      F#m
It struck me sad and strange

A               F#m             E   Esus4 E
All that ever stays the same is change
[Verse 4]
      Esus4         E     Esus4 E Esus4
And I dreamed, I wandered

E       Esus4 E
Wayward

     Esus4    E    Esus4 E Esus4
As a restless wave

E        Esus4 E
Spanning

     Esus4   E      Esus4 E Esus4
From here to yonder

E    Esus4 E
Most

      Esus4   E     Esus4 E Esus4
Spectacularly saved
[Chorus]
A                      F#m
Dream and life entwined

    A                     F#m            E   Esus4 E
The old day cracks and crumbles and it's fine
[Verse 5]
      Esus4   E       Esus4 E Esus4
To be in your company

E     Esus4 E
Funny

      Esus4   E   Esus4 E Esus4
To be in your day

E         Esus4 E
A miracle

Esus4      E        Esus4 E Esus4
Just to be with you

E    Esus4 E
Glad

            Esus4 E   Esus4 E Esus4
To be going your way
[Chorus]
     A                    F#m
Were these unfolding plans

A                    F#m
Designed or drawn by mortal hands?

E     Esus4 E
Never

     Esus4   E       Esus4 E Esus4
In a life of Sundays

E       Esus4 E
Would I

     Esus4   E    Esus4 E Esus4
Have seen me here
[Outro] E Esus4 E Esus4 x4 A F#m A F#m E Esus4 E Esus4 x4 A F#m A F#m E Esus4 E Esus4 x4 A F#m A F#m E Esus4 E Esus4 x4
