Intro

Bm7   G     D     Dsus2
Bm7   G     D     Dsus2
 


Bm7             G                     D
   Come up to meet you, tell you I'm sorry

                    Dsus2
You don't know how lovely you are

Bm7             G                    D
   I had to find you, tell you I need you,

              Dsus2
Tell you I’ll set you apart

Bm7               G                          D
   Tell me your secrets, and’ask me your questions

               Dsus2
Oh, let’s go back to the start

Bm7             G                  D
   Running in circles, coming up tails,

               Dsus2
Heads on a science apart

 


G
  Nobody said it was easy

D             Dsus2
  It's such a shame for us to part

G
  Nobody said it was easy

D             A/D              D6/9    A/E Asus4 A
  No one ever said it would be this hard.

No Chords
Oh take me back to the start...

Bm7              G                      D
   I was just guessing at numbers and figures

                 Dsus2
Pulling the puzzles apart

Bm7                G                    D
   Questions of science, science and progress

                   Dsus2
Do not speak as loud as my heart

Bm7               G                        D
   Tell me you love me, come back and haunt me

               Dsus2
Oh, and I rush to the start

Bm7             G                    D
   Running in circles, chasing our tails

                  Dsus2/C#
Coming back as we are

 



G
  Nobody said it was easy

D                 Dsus2
  Oh, it’s such a shame for us to part

G
  Nobody said it was easy

D             A/D              D6/9  A/E Asus4 A
  No one ever said it would be so hard.

No Chords
I’m going back to the start.
