INTRO:
F#5 - B5 - F#5 - F#5 (x2)
VERSE 1:
F#5 B5 F#5 F#5
I have tried but it's hard to fight it
F#5 B5 F#5 F#5
I can't just watch as it falls apart
F#5 B5 F#5 F#5
If we could break the mould, make it in from the cold
F#5 B5 F#5 F#5
Lose your mind, never lose your heart
PRE-CHORUS 1:
Eb5
I don't mind working hard for it
F#5
I'll bend the hands 'til the space appears
Eb5
I'll move the pieces until we all fit
F#5 Abm11 F#5
From near to far and from far to near
CHORUS 1:
B5 F#5
And I know that I'm going against the grain
Abm11 F#5 B5
And I know this makes no sense
B5 F#5 Abm11 F#5 B5
The changes I've tried to make, they make no differ - ence
B5 F#5 Eb5
But I know that I'll try again, although it's so hard
F#5 B5
Hard, hard
TRANSITION:
F#5 - B5 - F#5 - F#5 (x2)
VERSE 2:
F#5 B5 F#5 F#5
Given time it'll finally focus
F#5 B5 F#5 F#5
And in a moment that's been and gone
F#5 B5 F#5 F#5
And in the afterglow, from my head to my soul
F#5 B5 F#5 F#5
I can see all I have ignored
PRE-CHORUS 2:
Eb5
And I don't mind working hard for it
F#5
I'll bend the hands 'til the space appears
Eb5
I'll move the pieces until we all fit
F#5 Abm11 F#5
From near to far and from far to near
CHORUS 2:
B5 F#5
And I know that I'm going against the grain
Abm11 F#5 B5
And I know this makes no sense
B5 F#5 Abm11 F#5 B5
The changes I've tried to make, they make no differ - ence
B5 F#5 Eb5
But I know that I'll try again, although it's so hard

Hard, hard

BRIDGE:
C#5 F#5
If life's so short then we're wasting time
C#5 F#5
Love is the last thing on our minds
C#5 F#5 C#5 C#5
It's so simple but so hard to see
C#5 Eb5
And you are not alone in this
Bb5 B5
Sense of loss and loneliness
C#5 F#5 C#5 C#5
Take your shoes off, run towards the sea
CHORUS 3:
B5 F#5
And I know that I'm going against the grain
