Chords

[Intro] Am G F Dm [Verse]
    Am
The night gave you song

   G
A light had been turned on

     F
You walked out in the world

           Dm
Like you belong there

   Am
As easy as a breeze

     G
Each heart was yours to please

       F
Is it only me who sees

                  Dm
There’s something wrong there
[Pre-Chorus]
C
Oh la la,

           G
I’m not a ghost now

       F
I can see you

               Dm
You need to see me
[Chorus]
           C                          G
It’s the little things that give you away

                     F
The words you cannot say

                       Dm
Your big mouth in the way
[Verse]
   Am
I saw you on the stairs

     G
You didn’t notice I was there

         F
That’s ‘cause you were talking at me

        Dm
And not to me

         Am
You were high above the storm

   G
A hurricane being born

      F
This freedom

                       Dm
It might cost you your liberty
[Chorus]
    C                                 G
It’s the little things that give you away

                     F
The words you cannot say

                       Dm
Your big mouth in the way

           C                           G
It’s the little things that tease and betray

                            F
As the hunted I become the prey
It’s the little things
Dm                                Am
The little things that give you away
Am [Outro]
    C
Sometimes

                    G
I can’t believe my existence

                   F
See myself from a distance

         Dm
I can’t get back inside

    C
Sometimes

               G
The air is so anxious

                     F
All my thoughts are so reckless

                 Dm
And all of my innocence has died

    C
Sometimes

                      G
I wake at four in the morning

                          F
Where all the darkness is swarming

         Dm
And it covers me in fear

    C          G          F       Dm
Sometimes, sometimes, sometimes

    C
Sometimes

                      G
I'm full of anger and grieving

                  F
So far away from believing

          Dm
That any song will reappear

    C
Sometimes

                G
The end is not coming

          F
It’s not coming

      Dm
The end is here

    C      G    F    Dm
Sometimes

    C          G          F      Dm
Sometimes, sometimes, sometimes

    C
Sometimes

                          G
when the painted glass shatters

                               F
And you’re the only thing matters

            Dm
But I can’t see you through the tears

    C
Sometimes

              G
The end isn’t coming

         F
It’s not coming

       Dm
The end is here

    C
Sometimes
