OneRepublic, Counting Stars (2013)
Key: :[G#m] (w: Ryan Tedder) (BPM: 122)
CHORUS:
[G#m] Lately, I've been,
[B] I've been losing sleep
[F#] Dreaming about the things that
[E] we could be
But
[G#m] baby, I've been,
[B] I've been praying hard,
[F#] Said no more counting dollars,
[E] we'll be counting stars,
BREAK:
Yeah
[E] we'll be counting stars
[G#m] [B] [F#] [E] [x2]
VERSE 1:
I see this
[G#m] life like a swinging vine,
[B] swing my heart across the line
And
[F#] in my face is flashing signs,
[E] seek it out and ye shall find
[G#m] Old, but I'm not that old,
[B] young, but I'm not that bold
[F#] I don't think the world is sold,
[E] on just doing what we're told
PRE-CHORUS 1:
[G#m] I
[B] feel something so
[F#] right, doing the
[E] wrong thing
[G#m] I
[B] feel something so
[F#] wrong, doing the
[E] right thing
[E] I couldn't lie, couldn't lie, couldn't lie
[E open] Everything that kills me makes me feel alive
REPEAT CHORUS: [x2]
BREAK: [G#m] [B] [F#] [E]
VERSE 2:
I feel your
[G#m] love and I feel it burn,
[B] down this river, every turn
[F#] Hope is our four-letter word,
[E] make that money, watch it burn
[G#m] Old, but I'm not that old,
[B] young, but I'm not that bold
[F#] And I don't think the world is sold,
[E] on just doing what we're told
PRE-CHORUS 2:
[G#m] I
[B] feel something so
[F#] wrong, doing the
[E] right thing
[E] I couldn't lie, couldn't lie, couldn't lie
[E open] Everything that drowns me makes me wanna fly
REPEAT CHORUS: [x2]
BRIDGE:
[G#m] Take that money, watch it burn
[B] Sink in the river, the lessons I learned
[F#] Take that money, watch it burn
[E] Sink in the river, the lessons I learned
REPEAT BRIDGE:
PRE-CHORUS 3:
[E] Everything that
[C#m] kills me makes feel alive
REPEAT CHORUS: [x2]
REPEAT BRIDGE: [x2]
