Comets

Intro:

Am - C - G - F (2x)


Verse:


Am                G
Am I a terrible lie, just a southern
 mess?

C                    G
Am I the signature you’ll forge on 
the birthday cards

Am                   C
that I’ll forget to send

       Am                C
can we please just not pretend

             Am                
that all my thoughtlessness had 
    C
purpose

         G                      F 
do you think that it was worth it?
    Am - F - C

Pre Chorus:

                       Am           
   F      G (let it ring)
I’m not they same as I was when we 
were younger


Chorus:


C                     G
We swam out past the shallow 
breakers

   Am                   G
I never thought that the tide would 
take us

   Am            C        G      
we live just to love and learn to
   F
 give it up

Am     C     G        F
we are in the arms of lovers

C                G
we are hopeless we’re all comets

   Am                G
with love for someone carried on us

Am               C         G    
we live just to learn but hope 
       F
never gives us up

Am     C     G        F
we are in the arms of lovers

Am            C         F   
Soldiers with heavy hearts just 
      Am       C         G
reach out into the dark


Verse 2:


Am                             
You found me walking through our 
   G
town in the dead of night

C
I was looking for you

G                                
I always thought that if you 
Am            C
loved me in the end

          Am               C      
I could fall but I would mend but 
      Am            C           G
I’m tired of this secret cos I 
                 F       Am - F - C
know that I can’t keep it
