Snow Patrol - Chasing Cars
 
CAPO 2
 
 
[Verse 1]
 
G               D       C             G
We'll do it all, everything, on our own.
G          D        C         G
We don't need anything, or anyone.
 
 
[Chorus]
 
         G               D
If I lay here, if I just lay here
              C                                 G
Would you lie with me, and just forget the world.
 
 
[Verse 2]
 
G              D           C            G
I don't quite know how to say how I feel
G               D               C               G
Those three words are said too much, but not enough.
 
 
[Chorus]
 
         G               D
If I lay here, if I just lay here
              C                                 G
Would you lie with me, and just forget the world.
 
 
[Bridge]
 
                  G                   D
Forget what we're told, before we get too old
           C                            G
Show me a garden that's bursting into life.
 
 
[Verse 3]
 
G               D           C                G
Let's waste time, chasing cars, around our heads.
G               D           C               G
I need your grace to remind me, to find my own.
 
 
[Chorus]
 
         G               D
If I lay here, if I just lay here
              C                                  G
Would you lie with me, and just forget the world.
 
 
[Bridge]
 
                  G                   D
Forget what we're told, before we get too old
          C                                G
Show me a garden that's bursting into life.
 
 
[Verse 4]
 
           G              D
All that I am, all that I ever was 
                C                                  G
Is here in your perfect eyes, they're all I can see
             G                     D
I don't know where, confused about how as well
                     C                                      G
just know that these things will never change for us at all.
 
 
[Chorus]
 
         G               D
If I lay here, if I just lay here
              C                                  G
Would you lie with me, and just forget the world.

I think it sounds right for the song but kinda like the strumming pattern down, down, down, (quick) up, down. :)
