C          D                C
This years love had better last
       D               C
Heaven knows it's high time
              D             G            Em
And I've been waiting on my own too long
C            D                C
But when you hold me like you do
            D
It feels so right
C          D
I start to forget
       G
How my heart gets torn
          Em
When that hurt gets thrown
        A                 C
Feeling like you can't go on


C       D                  C
Turning circles when time again
               D           
It cuts like a knife oh yeah
C      D              G             Em
If you love me got to know for sure
C            D                   C
Cos it takes something more this time
                 D
Than sweet sweet lies
C        D          G
Before I open up my arms and fall
       Em
Losing all control
      A               C
Every dream inside my soul

And when you kiss me
        G
On that midnight street
         Em
Sweep me off my feet
        A                  C
Singing ain't this life so sweet


C          D               C    D  C  D  G  Em
This years love had better last


C          D               C     D
This years love had better last
C               D
'Cause who's to worry
       G
If our hearts get torn
          Em
When that hurt gets thrown
          A                   C
Don't you know this life goes on

And won't you kiss me
        G
On that midnight street
         Em
Sweep me off my feet
        A                  C
Singing ain't this life so sweet


C          D               C     D
This years love had better last
C          D               C     D
This years love had better last
C          D               C     D
This years love had better last
C                          G
This years love had better last

Maybe that it would do me good

If I believed there were a god
           G7        C
Cut in the starry firmament

But as it is that's just a lie
              F6           G 
And I'm here eating up the boredom
      Gsus4      C
On an island of cement
                          F
Give me your ecstasy I'll feel it
        F6             G
Open window and I'll steal it
     G7              Am
Baby like it's heaven sent

This ain't no love that's guiding me

-Verse 2 
Some days i'm bursting at the seams
with all my half remembered dreams
and then it shoots me down again
i feel the dampness as it creeps
I hear you coughing in your sleep
beneath a broken window pane
tomorrow girl i'll buy you chips
a lollipop to stain your lips
and it'll all be right as rain    Am
             G                  F    G  Am

this ain't no love that's guiding me

on winter trees the fruit of rain
is hanging trembling in the branches
like a thousand diamond buds
and waiting there in every pause
that old familiar fear that claws you
tells you nothing ain't no good
then pulling back you see it all
down here so laughable and small
hardly a quiver in the dirt    Am
             G                   F   F finish -C
this ain't no love that's guiding me

we danced wild, kicked off our shoes

and there's nothing to be done except reflecting the sun
and scratching the mountain side

     A       B
All of my senses overthrown      by the might of your skin
           E                          A    F#m    E  
           A      B
And the lamplight on your cheek bone ,    drawing me further in

[Chorus]
   C#m                          B
No sentence I can speak for the wonder so unique
C#m             B               A
Breaking like a wave upon the shore
E              A      F#m             G#m        
       E
Mercy me, I'm falling free, since you opened the door

[Verse]
                             E      A             F#m         
       E
See how the sky is made of sapphire,  the colours flowing through our hands
A           B             E
The moon is fire in your hair
A         F#m               E                   A    
   B
A million miles beyond what science understands

[Chorus]
C#m                            B
Smell that mountain heather, I don't remember ever
C#m              B       A
Feeling like this before
E              A      F#m             G#m        
       E
Mercy me, I'm falling free, since you opened the door

If every windowpane should shatter, if every wall should fall apart
         G#                             A
Well it might hurt a bit, but would it matter
          B              A     G#m
With this diamond in my heart

[Verse]
        F#m        E                     A
There's no need to nail it to the ground
   F#m     E                      A      B
No need to smother it with sense
     E                            A          F#m
Just listen to the rhythm of your heart that pounds
             E              A       B
And trust it all to chance


[Outro]
          C#m                            B
Cos we're standing face to face with the angel of grace
    C#m            B       A
And don't it just taste so pure
E             A       F#m
Mercy me, I'm falling free
E             A       F#m
Mercy me, I'm falling free
E             A       F#m
Mercy me, I'm falling free
          G#m           F#m
Since you opened up the door

[Parte Rap]
C
De nada dudes ya
Hey, honestamente te explicaré 
de natural modo cada fenómeno
El mar, el sol, el gas, 
oh, ese es Maui hablando de más
Anguilas que, yo las enterré, 
de la palmera los cocos creé
Un consejo, una lección te doy
No me molestes si en mi descanso estoy
Am
  El tapiz que en mi piel se ve, 
F
  es el mapa de lo que gané
C
  Por donde fui provoqué mil sucesos
E7
  Ve al pequeñín mini Maui nomás zapateando,
Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ¡Hey!

Verse 1:
G                                    Em        G        Em
There was a girl who lived in London town.
G                                 Em                   G      Em
The scenes and sounds, they would only bring her down
C                                   D
She had polkadots and rubies in her dreams,
C                   D
French fantasies on cinema screens...
        C             G/B    Am     G
And she knew from the finish to the start
C      G/B      Am   G
It was bound to fall apart
C         G/B     Am   Em
Thanks to Cupid's lazy dart.
Em                                D
Wouldn't it be sweet if she could die from a broken heart?

G     Em      G      Em

Verse 2: (the same chords)
There was a boy who lived inside his head.
He couldn't face the world, so he turned his back instead.
He couldn't see in front of his eyes;
His fantasies of outlaws had him hypnotised...

And he knew from the finish to the start
It was bound to fall apart
Thanks to Cupid's lazy dart.                        F
Wouldn't it be sweet if he could die from a broken heart?

   C              G           F
Behold his golden wings
       C              G         F
And behold his bronze bow.
                 C             G         F
Can you hear his silver arrows sing?
       C               G     
As his gaylied favours glow.

(then go back to the normal verse bit)

There was a boy and girl who fell in love:
They both were in love with the stars and sky above,
Cinderella, cigarettes and scenes from the past
Were chasing them too fast for this love to ever last...

And they knew from the finish to the start
It was bound to fall apart
Thanks to Cupid's lazy dart.                         F
Wouldn't it be sweet if they could die from a broken heart? 

C   G    F    C    G

Repeat F  C  G until the end. End on G.

I had a dream, we were sipping whisky neat

    Am              C                F             C
Somewhere along the lines, we stopped seeing eye to eye

You were staying out all night and I had enough

Who's waking up to drive you home when you're drunk and all alone?
             F                    C                G
Who's gonna walk you through the dark side of the morning, it ain’t me


Am        C              G         F   
Ow-ow, ah-ah the Bowery, ow-ow, ah-ah whiskey neat

       I had a dream, we were back to seventeen
       F                   C            G
Summer nights and the Libertines, never growing up

It Ain't Me

Am
There's a sadness all around us
          F                         C
There are words we're too afraid to say
                                        Am
The things that I thought would last forever
    F              G
Are changing every day

          Am
There's a hunger can't be satisfied
        F                       C
And the streets are filled with rage
C                       Am
It's time to dig deep inside ourselves
F                       G
And face the life we've made

Am
It's gonna take two of us
C                           Am
Ijust can't do it all on my own
F				  C
I see the day gettin' brighter
G                    F
Hold me a little bit tighter

C                      Am      F
Out of the darkness in hand in hand
     Am               F        G
Baby together we will make our stand
C                             Am      F
Reach out and touch me we can win somehow
       Am              F                G
I know there's nothing that can stop us now
F              Am                 G   C
Oh, baby, come with me out of the darkness
