[Intro]
B C# D#m A#m B
 
 
[Verse 1]
B                      C#
I keep my focus on the simple things
D#m                       A#m       B
Trying to find some peace along the way
B                        C#
Wish I knew how long I'm supposed to wait
D#m                 A#m  B
Holding on but just barely
 
 
[Pre-Chorus]
                B                      C#
Got the feeling I've been talking to a dead, dead line
D#m                        A#m    B
There's always a reason to let it change
            B                             C#
Is there anyone there listening while you cry, cry, cry?
D#m                     A#m     B
There's always a reason for the pain

F#            C#                         D#m                   B
I'm doing the things that I'm told every day, every day, every day
F#               C#                      D#m                 B
Then why does it feel like I'm moving in place, in place, in place?
 
 
[Verse 2]
B            C#
Never had anything to prove
D#m              A#m      B
But never was anyone like you
B                               C#
All you fought through, all you had to face
D#m                A#m   B
Made you stronger, unafraid
 
 
[Pre-Chorus]
                B                      C#
Got the feeling I've been talking to a dead, dead line

There's always a reason to let it change
            B                             C#
Is there anyone there listening while you cry, cry, cry?
D#m                     A#m     B
There's always a reason for the pain
 
 
[Chorus]
F#            C#                         D#m                   B

F#               C#                      D#m                 B
Then why does it feel like I'm moving in place, in place, in place?
F#              C#                       D#m                       B
I gotta believe that you're there when I sing, when I sing, when I sing
F#                   C#                  D#m                     B
'Cause if you're not real, I'm losing my head, in my head, in my head

Sounds awesome for the most part, but the Eb chords definitely sound minor to me. I've found this works really nicely on acoustic transposing down 4 semitones and putting a capo on fret 4. Thanks!

it's Ebm not Eb and if you put a Capo on 1st fret you can play open chords ;)
