Verse 1:
 
F        Em
It ain't perfect
 
F*      C
nothing is
 
F             Em      G#
There's still room to grow
 
F       Em
Feeling different
 
F*      C
Staying in
 
F      Em     G#
Made a little home
 
F         Em
So when I sit there
 
F*    C
in my chair
 
F      Em      G#
as the evening wanes
 
F       Em
I don't remember 
 
F*      C
getting here
 
F       Em     G#
but I'm glad I came
 
 
 
 
Pre-Chorus:
 
F             Em
So don't look down
 
A7sus4         Am
Just cross the bridge
 
F       Em
When you get there
 
Dm                  G
You'll know why you did
 
 
 
 
Chorus:
 
          F      C           F     C
There's a better life on the other side
 
          F      C           F     C
It's your double life on the other side
 
         F      C           F     C
There's another life on the other side
 
 
 
 
Verse 2:
 
F        Em
It ain't simple
 
F*     C
like before
 
F         Em        G#
These are different times
 
F         Em
No longer worried bout
 
F*      C
getting bored
 
F              Em       G#
Just trying to clear my mind
 
F            Em
From all the noise out there
 
F*      C
all the spooks
 
F       Em     G#
all the moving parts
 
F       Em   F*
Cameras everywhere 
  C
I look
 
F        Em     G#
We're imitating art
 
 
 
Pre-Chorus:
 
F             Em
So don't look down
 
A7sus4         Am
Just cross the bridge
 
F           Em
And when you get there
 
Dm                 G
You'll be glad you did
 
 
 
Chorus:
 
         F      C           F     C
There's another life on the other side
 
          F      C           F     C
It's your double life on the other side
 
          F      C           F     C
It's your second life on the other side
            F      C           F     C
There's and honest life on the other side
          F      C           F     C
It's your double life on the other side.

solid tab, thanks for the chords. but like he said you tabbed it upside down, makes it super hard for me to read. i guess it is called upside down mountain...

For the verses only: F* should be noted F/A C should be noted G6 I'm not certain what G# should be noted as but it's definitaly not G#, maybe CMaj7sus4/G# But the picking is all good, except it's flipped over (?!?) Chorus chords are all good. Good job overall

after just watching a video of Conor playing it and listening, I think this is how to play that unknown chord: e--------- B--------- G----5---- D----3---- A----X---- E----4---- This is what I watched (around 9:16) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NIfTCmwgIbY I think it is just Fm in first inversion: Fm/Ab If I am wrong, let me know. Hope this helps!
