Four years of hard work!This month of May we celebrated four years on the air. We continue working on the dissemination of this wonderful instrument, thank you for participating in our story!
My first tab ever, sorry if it's not perfect!
The placement of the chords probably isn't good, but if you listen to the song and play along it will be easy!
I couldn't quite figure out the bridge, but I think it's the same as the verse and chorus.
[Intro]
E F#m C#m A
[Verse 1]
E F#m C#m
Hold your breath, don't look down, keep trying
A E F#m C#m
Darling, it's okay to be scared, it's frightening
A E F#m C#m
At times it just feels like the world is trying hard to knock us down
A E F#m C#m A
But there's a reason that we're still here when no one else is around
[Pre-Chorus]
F#m
How we've grown
A
Every single day I'm proud
F#m
I swear, I won't
A
Let anything stop us now
[Chorus]
E F#m
I'm not a soldier
C#m A
But I'll fight through our darkest of days
E F#m
Get on my shoulders
C#m A
And I'll carry you all of the way
E F#m
'Cause there's no life worth living in
C#m A
If you're not with me in it
E F#m
I'm not a soldier
C#m A
But you make me wanna be brave
E F#m C#m A
Yeah, you do
[Verse 2]
E F#m C#m A
Through the depths of despair, we've stumbled
E F#m C#m
And all that distance between us, we've crumbled
A E F#m C#m
We've ignored all of the rumours and jealous disapprovals
A E F#m C#m
And we've come out the other side with something beautiful
[Pre-Chorus]
A F#m
Oh, how we've grown
A
Every single day I'm proud
F#m
And now I know
A
There's nothing that can stop us now
[Chorus]
E F#m
I'm not a soldier
C#m A
But I'll fight through our darkest of days
E F#m
Get on my shoulders
C#m A
And I'll carry you all of the way
E F#m
'Cause there's no life worth living in
C#m A
If you're not with me in it
E F#m
I'm not a soldier
C#m A
But you make me wanna be brave
E F#m C#m A
Yeah, you do
[Bridge]
E F#m
Only we know where we're going
C#m A
Every day we're gonna keep on growing
E F#m
Learning from the tears and the mistakes
C#m A
We're not perfect but we've come such a long way
E F#m
As long as I got you by my side
C#m A
I know what I wanna do in this life
E F#m
One day when our kids fall in love
C#m A
We can tell them that the odds were against us
[Chorus]
E F#m
I'm not a soldier
C#m A
But I'll fight through our darkest of days
E F#m
Get on my shoulders
C#m A
And I'll carry you all of the way
E F#m
'Cause there's no life worth living in
C#m A
If you're not with me in it
E F#m
I'm not a soldier
C#m A
But you make me wanna be brave
E
Yeah, you do
[Outro]

Yeah, you do, yeah, you do
C#m A
