Chords in this song

Strum
D-DU-UDU
 Hold  fire  and I'll relax, place  your shadow on  these tracks
 It's  turning heads,  I have to ask
 Nothing  could  seem so fake,  all this darkness it's a  give or take
She  said I  opened my mind to  mistakes, back when...
 I  saw the  light, and it  lit up the darkest  times when I,
 I  saw the light,  I saw the light
 I  saw the  light and it made  me realise  when
 I  saw the light,  I saw the light
 then this bit is played high on the G and D string:
 D:-15-16--11-13--181818
 G:-16-16--13-13--202020
 second verse is the same as the first
 but, as it is says 'oh and you know that's the truth',
 right at the end an Ais played
 to lead on to the chorus.
But it's  not over  yet
 there's  higher people to  follow and still those  ones we haven't met
so  I follow it through
 never lead  your eyes  again
 it's  all about me I'm excited  to be so hearts away,  away again again
 then back to verse chords for verse three
 until it says 'I saw the light' and an B is played
 CHORUS, same chords played till ending with the 'oohs'
 ends with:
 D:-15-16--11-13--181818
 G:-16-16--13-13--202020
 LYRICS:
 Hold fire and I'll relax,
 place your shadow on these tracks,
 it's turning heads I have to ask.
 Nothing could seem so fake,
 all this darkness it's a give or take.
 she said I open my mind to mistakes, back when...
 I saw the light
 and it lit up the darkest times when I,
 I saw the light I saw the light.
 I saw the light
 and it made me realise when,
 I saw the light I saw the light.
 People think you're the only one,
 who knew a thing or two about love,
 or what it can do to someone.
 Chin-chin breads for a chin-chin time,
 too much sweetness for my tooth, oh and you know that's the truth.
 But it's not over yet,
 there's higher people to follow
 and still those ones we haven't met.
 So I follow it through,
 never lead your eyes again,
 it's all about me, I'm excited
 to be so hearts away, away again again.
 We've been on this roof for hours,
 I'm slumped over a magazine,
 I wish your looks were at me.
 It's just so unfair,
 how you take but you just don't care,
 my words were falling through the air, oh when...
 end.
 hope it's alright,
 lyrics probably very wrong,
 worked them out aswell myself.
 ENJOY

LYRICS:

Hold fire and I'll relax,
place your shadow on these tracks,
it's turning heads I have to ask.

Nothing could seem so fake,
all this darkness it's a give or take.
she said I open my mind to mistakes, back when...

I saw the light
and it lit up the darkest times when I,
I saw the light I saw the light.
I saw the light
and it made me realise when,
I saw the light I saw the light.

People think you're the only one,
who knew a thing or two about love,
or what it can do to someone.
Chin-chin breads for a chin-chin time,
too much sweetness for my tooth, oh and you know that's the truth.

But it's not over yet,
there's higher people to follow
and still those ones we haven't met.
So I follow it through,
never lead your eyes again,
it's all about me, I'm excited
to be so hearts away, away again again.

We've been on this roof for hours,
I'm slumped over a magazine,
I wish  your looks were at me.
It's just so unfair,
how you take but you just don't care,
my words were falling through the air, oh when...

end.

hope it's alright,
lyrics probably very wrong,
worked them out aswell myself.
