Great song, Great band
The chords are pretty much the same throughout but I would like to say
that although ive said the 3rd chord in the progression is (F#m) and this is how I
play it, sometimes it looks as though the guitar is playing a normal F# though its
still sung as if over a minor. :) Enjoy
[INTRO]
D - A - F#m - E
D - A - F#m - E
[Verse 1]
D A F#m E
I was left to my own devices
D A F#m E
Many days fell away with nothing to show
[Pre-Chorus]
D A
And the walls kept tumbling down
F#m E
In the city that we loved
D A
Great clouds roll over the hills
F#m E
Bringing darkness from Above
[Chorus]
D
But if you close your eyes,
A
Does it almost feel like
F#m E
Nothing changed at all?
D
And if you close your eyes,
A
Does it almost feel like
F#m E
You've been here before?
D A E
How am I gonna be an optimist about this?
D A E
How am I gonna be an optimist about this?
[Verse 2]
D A F#m E
We were caught up and lost in all of our vices
D A F#m E
In your pose as the dust settles around us
[Pre-Chorus]
D A
And the walls kept tumbling down
F#m E
In the city that we loved
D A
Great clouds roll over the hills
F#m E
Bringing darkness from Above
[Chorus]
D
But if you close your eyes,
A
Does it almost feel like
F#m E
Nothing changed at all?
D
And if you close your eyes,
A
Does it almost feel like
F#m E
You've been here before?
D A E
How am I gonna be an optimist about this?
D A E
How am I gonna be an optimist about this?
[Instrumental]
D A F#m E
[Bridge]
D A
Oh where do we begin?
F#m E
The rubble or our sins?
D A
Oh where do we begin?
F#m E
The rubble or our sins?
[Pre-Chorus]
D A
And the walls kept tumbling down
F#m E
In the city that we loved
D A
Great clouds roll over the hills
F#m E
Bringing darkness from Above
[Chorus]
D
But if you close your eyes,
A
Does it almost feel like
F#m E
Nothing changed at all?
D
And if you close your eyes,
A
Does it almost feel like
F#m E
You've been here before?
D A E
How am I gonna be an optimist about this?
D A E
How am I gonna be an optimist about this?
D
But if you close your eyes,
A
Does it almost feel like
F#m E
Nothing changed at all?

Sounds Good! When playing the F#m, play it with variation 2 when you hover over the chord with the mouse. Sounds really good like that.
