No Capo!

Bm/G : Just a regular Bminor with a G bass, 3244xx (last strings will end up getting 
muted if you stretch your middle finger over to the 3rd fret of the low E string to give 
the G bass sound)

D   G   Bm   Bm/G (fingering for this chord above)

Prechorus: "you're not a ghost.."
Em   A7
(Hammering on the second fret of the high string when playing the Eminor chord here)

D   A   Em   G x 4
 > Gminor

Bridge: "if you always go slow.."
Just A   G all the way through really!

lyrics__
This guy could save the world with both hands behind his back
And still emerge with ten times the courage that others lack

I'm sick of wallowing here in my own self pity
Feet in the countryside, head in the city

Tall buildings bright lights bright cars,
But more importantly more importantly that's where you are

I'll send you postcards from my head,
Thinking bout you while my cheeks go red

You're not a ghost but you feel like one right now
But you can haunt me if you like


CHORUS
I need some help to complete this task,
Want you here beside me is that too much to ask?
I'm haunted here, without you dear,
I'll tell you this as I whisper in your ear and say,
There's always another day
[ Tab from: https://www.guitartabs.cc/tabs/o/orla_gartland/postcards_crd.html ]
Someone once said, that a story once told
That these streets these streets are paved with gold
But unless you're standing on them, or sitting on your thrown
They mean nothing to me, nothing to me, nothing but stone

Maybe you'll never know just how i feel,
Maybe you'll never know maybe thats the appeal
But walls look weird without you sitting on top
Never meant to start and now I can't stop


You're not a ghost but you feel like one right now
But you can haunt me if you like


I need some help to complete this task,
Want you here beside me is that too much to ask?
I'm haunted here, without you dear,
I'll tell you this as I whisper in your ear and say,
There's always another day


If you always go slow than you'll probably never fall
but if you never go fast than you'll never feel tall
If you always go slow than you'll never get hurt,
but if you never go fast you'll never feel on top of the world x2


You're not a ghost
But you can haunt me if you like


I need some help to complete this task,
Want you here beside me is that too much to ask?
I'm haunted here, without you dear,
I'll tell you this as I whisper in your ear and say,
There's always another day

This sounds like a love song but its not,
Cause in the end, the girl gets caught
And will they be together in the end
Well I wish I could tell you that my friend
