I love Charlie Simpson's stuff. Sorry if the placement of chords are not absolutly
perfect, but, you get the idea.
Intro
A/C# E/B A/C# E/B (lead Guitar is picking B - A twice for each chord except last which
does B - A once then goes down B - A - Ab(/G#) - E. The same goes for after the first chorus)
Verse 1
A
I don't need a parachute
F#m E
You don't need to ask if I'm okay
D
I can look after myself
A
We've been walking for hours now
F#m
My feet are starting to itch
E
Blisters crack all over my skin
D
And my shoes don't even fit.
Chorus

I'm so sorry for the pain, sorry for the aches,
F#m/A
Sorry for the moods I'm swinging.

I don't need a parachute. (oo Oo oh Oh)

Verse 2
A
I have tried to carry you
F#m E
As far as I can go but I'm not strong

enough to do this on my own

I pack my bags to leave this town
