As I Was Saying Chords

   
Standard tuning. You can put a capo on the first fret and remove the sharps and play it accordingly, 
but Jack likes to play bar chords, so no capo is needed. 


INTRO
Gm

VERSE
A#             Fm
As I was saying
                          D#
Just before you left the room
       A#
Before I assumed
      G#       D#          A#
That you might not come around

A#             Fm
As I was saying
                   D#
Just after I took my foot from
    A#               G#
My mouth and put it back
D#       A#
On the ground

CHORUS
D#                    F
I don't want to disappoint you
A#                    D#
I don't want to disappear
      Cm      F      A#
From here or now or you

VERSE
A#                  Fm
This is worth saving
                          D#
Because the sum of us is more than us
       A#
If you add us up


          G#      D#       A#
Then subtract my lack of sleep

A#                 Fm
My mind feels crazy
                             D#
When all these thoughts come rushing in
              A#
Should I be trusting them
   G#    D#       A#
Or only let them be?

CHORUS
D#                    F
I don't want to disappoint you
A#                    D#
I don't want to disappear
      Cm      F      A#
From here or now or you

BRIDGE
Cm                      F
Is it just a matter of time?
Cm                        Dm
Or does it even matter at all?
D#                     A#          Cm
Because even if this story should fall
           D#        A#
From the sky to the sea
A#          Cm
If I should fall
           D#              Gm
Would you fall down with me?
               F
Would you fall?

VERSE
A#                Fm
Found my foundation
                     D#
It was underneath me all along
A#
On this path I'm on,
       G#    D#    A#
Now I never walk alone

A#               Fm
I've been erasing
                    D#
Rewrote the second half like this
          A#
So my protagonist
       G#       D#       A#
Might find his way back home

CHORUS
D#                    F
I don't want to disappoint you
A#                    D#
I don't want to disappear
      Cm      F      A#
From here or now or you
             Cm      F       A#
No not from here or now or you
