Em Trying to keep up with you. Am And I don't know if I can do it. Em Dm Oh no, I've said too much, G I haven't said enough. BRIDGE G F I thought that I heard you laughing, Dm G Am Am Am Am I thought that I heard you sing. Am F F Dm G Am I think I thought I saw you try.

VERSE 3 Am Consider this, consider this, Em The hint of a century, Am Consider this: the slip Em That brought me to my knees failed. Am What if all these fantasies Em Come flailing around?

Then the verse starts
For strumming, I like to do DD-UU-D-U and repeat.
outro is going like (a string): 7-7-7-7-7-7-7-5-3-0-5-3-0-3-0
The outro is:
A/-7-7-7-5-5-5-5-5-
E/—————-8-8-8-5-5-5-5-5
Repeat the sequence 3 times then
A/-7-5—5——
E/—-8-5-8-5-8-
Then Am chord. Sorry if thats confusing, but I tried.
Isn’t it “Try, cry, fly, try” in the final bridge?
In the final bridge, shouldn’t it be “Try, fly, cry” instead of “Try, fly why”?
Love this song. Thanks for adding it.
how is the link supposed to work because it doesn’t sound right
+2 for higher tone
The 8-5 sequence doesn’t overlap the 7-5 sequence, it just submitted that way.
