        Walking down by the bay, on the shore, staring up at the planes that aren't

         We need time          only time

e|---0-----------0------------0------0-----------------------------------------|
B|---1-----------3------------1------3-----------------------------------------|
G|---2-----------2------------0------0-----------------------------------------|
D|---2-----------2------------2------2-----------------------------------------|

E|-----------------------------------------------------------------------------|

Just repeat the rhythm for the rest of the chorus.

Note : I like to play the last line of the chorus with only the Am and C chord, so it 
kind of different for the ending.

Verse 2 chords are the same as the ones used on the first verse.

Pre chorus :

       So tell me darling do you wish we'd fall in love,      all the time

e|---1---------------------------0------------------1-------3--------------------|
B|---1---------------------------1------------------1-------0--------------------|
G|---2---------------------------0------------------2-------0--------------------|
D|---3---------------------------2------------------3-------0--------------------|
A|---3---------------------------3------------------3-------2--------------------|
E|---1----------------------------------------------1-------3--------------------|


That's it. You just repeat the chorus a couple of times
