Intro: Gsus4 A#sus4 A# C#sus4
Gsus4 A#sus4
was it just a faded night?
A#
zeppelins in the sky
C#sus4
we can't hide anymore
Gsus4 A#sus4
was it just a bridge too far?
A#
strangers and lonely hearts
C#sus4
pulled apart she said,
G# F5
we've gone and started a war
G#
I can't take anymore
F5
'cause we keep facing
into the storm
Gsus4 A#sus4
watch the rise and fall
A#
could've had it all
C#sus4
oceans and the rising stars
Gsus4 A#sus4
close your eyes and bleed
A#
drifting on the sea
C#sus4
letting go of who we are
Gsus4 A#sus4 A# C#sus4
the sun is a fading star
Gsus4 A#sus
if I could just rewind time
A#
and nature by design
C#sus4
I'll find you there
Gsus4 A#sus4
or is it all in my head?
A#
the words that were left unsaid
C#sus4
they feel dead to me
Gsus4 A#sus4
watch the rise and fall
A#
could've had it all
C#sus4
oceans and the rising stars
Gsus4 A#sus4
close your eyes and bleed
A#
drifting on the sea
C#sus4
letting go of who we are
Gsus4 A#sus4 A# C#sus4
the sun is a fading star
Gsus4 A#sus4 A# C#sus4
the sun is a fading star
G# F5
we've gone and started a war
G#
I can't take anymore
F5
'cause we keep facing
into the storm
Gsus4 A#sus4
watch the rise and fall
A#
could've had it all
C#sus4
oceans and the rising stars
Gsus4 A#sus4
close your eyes and bleed
A#
drifting on the sea
C#sus4
letting go of who we are
Gsus4 A#sus4 A# C#sus4
the sun is a fading star
