All the B5 and G5 chords are played with palm mute. Play with a clean sound and a lot of reverb. I have
transposed one octave higher the last part of the riff1 (5-4-2...), which is in fact played by the bass.

[Verse 1]
Bm B5                  G5
Secrets, shared with another girl
B5                     G5
Talking all night in a room
B5                      G5
All night, everything’s slowing down
B5                               G5
I wish I was yours, I wish I was yours

[Verse 2]
Bm B5             G5
Strangers, nobody knows we love
B5                        G5
I catch your eyes in the dark
    B5                G5
One look relieves the memories
  B5                   G5
Remember me, the way I used to be
