Okay, so I was only able to get the verses, because in all the videos I watched on
youtube, she only plays for the verses, and not the chorus, so I had to figure
that out, I'm pretty sure some of it's wrong, but I gave it shot, because I'm obsessing atm.
 
So she originally plays it live on Capo 5. But I prefer Capo 3. Pick and choose. Enjoy!
 
 
Your Biggest Mistake - Ellie Goulding
NB: That F chord, is bar.
 
Am     C
  Take cover
G          Am
Signs don't show
Am        C
You drove me 
G       Am
off the road
 
 
    F       G
But you let go
         Am      G
Cos your hope is gone
    F              G
And every question fades away
 
 
Chorus.
 
       C                    G
It's a shame you don't know what you're running from
           Am                           G
Would your bones have to break and your lights turn off
         F               G                Am            G
Would it take the end of time to hear you heart's false start?
 
 
    Am                        G
You know this is your biggest mistake
       Am                          G
What a waste, what a waste, what a waste
       C                            G
And of all the things you never explained
     Am                          G
You know this is your biggest mistake
 
 
Am        C
You tread water
G                            Am
Fighting for the air in your lungs
Am
Move
     C
Move closer
G                            Am
Maybe you can right all your wrongs
 
 
    F       G
But you let go
         Am      G
Cos your hope is gone
    F            G
And every answer fades away
 
       C                    G
It's a shame you don't know what you're running from
           Am                           G
Would your bones have to break and your lights turn off
         F               G                Am            G
Would it take the end of time to hear you heart's false start?
 
 
    Am                        G
You know this is your biggest mistake
       Am                          G
What a waste, what a waste, what a waste
       C                            G
And of all the things you never explained
     Am                          G
You know this is your biggest mistake
 
 
C                   G                      Am
Wipe the mud stains from the face stop the engine
       G
Stop pretending
C                   G                      Am
Wipe the mud spray from your face stop the engine,
       G              F
Stop pretending, that you're still breathing
 
 
       C                    G
It's a shame you don't know what you're running from
           Am                           G
Would your bones have to break and your lights turn off
         F               G                Am            G
Would it take the end of time to hear you heart's false start?
 
 
    Am                        G
You know this is your biggest mistake
       Am                          G
What a waste, what a waste, what a waste
       C                            G
And of all the things you never explained
     Am                          G
You know this is your biggest mistake

Thank you, this is pretty good, but the chords in the chorus are the wrong way round... the Am has to be played before the chorus starts and then the G with "you know..." and then keep on playing it like it's written ( so that the C goes with "...explained...") =)
