The Essence

F#   C#/E#   B   F#

[Verse 1]
F#                    C#/E#
Love is the strangest thing
          B                  F#
It is the essence of a human being
F#        C#/E#                  B
Why do we fight, We turn off the lights
              F#        C#/E#
Tear my heart open each night

[Pre Chorus]
    B                 C#
But love it sings the strangest things

[Chorus 1]
           F#             C#
Why are you here, Why do I fear
            B                 F#
Anything to do with love, and you
          F#               C#/E#
Why do you stay, Just walk away
     B                       F   C#
I am broken, With worries to fall
F#   C#      B              F#
Down down    down down down down

[Verse 2]
F#                  C#
Light will fill the sky
          B                     F#
It is the essence of the great divine
             F#          C#
And there is gold in our hearts
         B              F#
That can mend a severed love

[Verse 3]
    F#                C#
And time will pass us by
          B                     F#
It is the essence of the body's life
    F#                    C#
Yet love is the strangest thing
          B                  F#
It is the essence of a human being

[Tag]
          F#
Why do you stay (why do you stay)
          C#/E#            B   F#
Just walk away (just walk away) mmm

[Instrumental]
F#   C#/E#   B   F#
Ooh

[Chorus 2]
           F#              C#/E#
Why are you here, Why do I fear
            B                F#
Anything to do with love, and you
          F#               C#
Why do you stay, Just walk away
     B                       F   C#
I am broken, With worries to fall
F#   C#/E#   B   F#
Down
