Intro (see bottom)
Edwn Adwn
All I see, Drifting through my veins
Edwn
Want to know where it all began
Adwn
I see your face everywhere I turn
(at this point start playing the intro again)
Now I’m left, eternally to bow
Eternally to…
(single strum for each chord)
Eup Aup
When you're on your own
Eup
Killing time
Aup
Wanna make it right
Make it…
(start gently strumming the guitar now around 6 times during each chord)
Eup Bup
Nothing ventured nothing gained
Aup
Seems all the world has gone insane
All said and done
Gup
We are heading straight towards the sun
Eup Bup
Nothing ventured nothing gained
Aup
Seems all the world has gone insane
All said and done
Gup
We are heading straight towards the sun
(back to 1st verse again)
Edwn
All I feel
Adwn Edwn
Crawls across my skin, Breaking through, Slowly sinking in
Adwn
I can’t find what you're looking for
(start intro again)
Nothing’s left, Nothing’s left at all
Nothing's left at…
(single strum for each chord)
Eup Aup
When you're on your own
Eup
Killing time
Aup
Wanna make it right
Make it…
(start gently strumming the guitar now around 6 times during each chord)
Eup Bup
Nothing ventured nothing gained
Aup
Seems all the world has gone insane
It's sad to say
Gup
We are heading straight towards the sun
Eup Bup
Nothing ventured nothing gained
Aup
Seems all the words drift from my head
All said and done
Gup
We are heading straight towards the sun...
Cdwn
I don’t know where we went wrong
Bdwn Adwn Bdwn
Cos it’s been going on too long
Cdwn
We used to live inside the breeze
Bwn Gdwn Bdwn
But now I find it hard to breathe
Adwn
Wanna make it right
Make it…
Eup Bup
Nothing ventured nothing gained
Aup
Seems all the world has gone insane
It's sad to say
Gup
We are heading straight towards the sun
Eup Bup
Nothing ventured nothing gained

All said and done
Gup
We are heading straight towards the sun...
