[Intro]
 
G D Em Bm [x2]
G
 
[Verse 1]
 
D
I'm on the night bus
              Em
I'm thinking about us
    Bm                           G
The streetlights go fleeting by
    D
The man sat next to me
               Em
Is texting somebody
  Bm                          G
I wonder what that feels like
D
Maybe I'm reckless
                  Em
But I just can't shake this
   Bm                   G
It follows me home at night
 
[Pre-Chorus]
 
   D
At night
                           G
It's getting clearer every mile we ride
 
[Chorus]
 
Bm
Suddenly I know
     G
That I'm on my way home
   D                    Em
To you for the last time
Bm
It's not what you wanted
    G
But I know you got this
    D                  Em
And you're gonna be fine
    Bm
Oh, I've just been watching
    G
The world as it's turning
    D                       Em
And that's what it feels like
D
Suddenly I know
     Em
That I'm on my way home
   Bm                    G
To you for the last time
 
D Em Bm G
 
[Verse 2]
 
D
I'm on the night bus
                     Em
That's crawling with lovers
    Bm                             G
Who hide from the cold white light
  D
I see my reflection
             Em
Dazed and complacent
    Bm                   G
She follows me home at night
 
[Pre-Chorus]
 
D
At night
                           G
It's getting clearer every mile we ride
 
[Chorus]
 
Bm
Suddenly I know
     G
That I'm on my way home
   D                    Em
To you for the last time
Bm
It's not what you wanted
    G
But I know you got this
    D                  Em
And you're gonna be fine
    Bm
Oh, I've just been watching
    G
The world as it's turning
    D                       Em
And that's what it feels like
D
Suddenly I know
     Em
That I'm on my way home
   Bm                    G
To you for the last time
 
[Bridge]
 
   A     G   A     G   A
At night, at night, at night
                           G
It's getting clearer every mile we ride
 
[Chorus]
 
Bm
Suddenly I know
     G
That I'm on my way home
   D                    Em
To you for the last time
Bm
It's not what you wanted
    G
But I know you got this
    D                  Em
And you're gonna be fine
    Bm
Oh, I've just been watching
    G
The world as it's turning
    D                       Em
And that's what it feels like
D
Suddenly I know
     Em
That I'm on my way home

To you for the last time

Instead of Em for the chorus, I found A major to work as well. (To better match with the singing, Em I feel like is for the literal, actual background chords.) Amazing tab!

Thank you for making a tab for this!! Since I'm just a beginner, could you give me some tips on how you play this? Stuff like the strumming pattern and any special chord tips? I also can't play Bm to save my life. Any suitable variations?
