Chorus:
           D#m B
Don't give in
           F#          C#
Don't you dare quit so easy
     D#m B
Give all
          F#         C#
That you got on the soul
       D#m B
Don't say
          F#       C#
That you want it forever
    B
I know, I know

D#m            B
It's in your blood, and it's
F#                C#
And it's in your making
         D#m        B
So don't hold your tongue
            F#               C#
'Cause it's, it's no longer working
      D#m            B
Don't fall on your sword
     F#          C#
Just follow your instinct
        B
Like an old lesson learned
        B
Like an old lesson learned

Only you know what it,
What it is to see through
See through the eyes
That are trained on me now, I can
I can only tell you how it,
How it looks from here
I think you made up your mind
I think you made up your mind

Chorus - x2

Yes there's a lot we can
We can learn from this loss
Learn not to let it fall
Around our ears
Don't fall in love with the,
With the way things were
It'll fuck up your mind, it'll fuck up your mind

D#m B            F#
     For this is all,
C#              D#m   B
on the wings of others
             F#
I loved you more,
C#                D#m  B
more in your own flight
                 F# C#
So it ain't the same
                   B
It won't be lost forever, it won't be lost forever

Chorus - x2

F#   C#  D#m   B
This is your grace
       F#            C#     D#m           B
And I don't know why, and I don't know why
F#   C#  D#m   B
This is your grace
       F#            C#      B
And I don't know why, and I don't know why
