Kodaline - High Hopes Chords

Capo 4th

There’s a nice little fill in the verses and chorus with an Am-Am/G-F which I will
explain up here and note it below as ‘Fill’. It gets cluttery and inaccurate if filled in
with exact chord notations below.

First play the Am (assuming you’re using your index, middle and ring fingers), and then
move your pinky to the third fret on the low E string, and then to a barred F (E with
finger over the entire first fret). I use the barred F to get that nice bass line in the 
fill, but you can use any other variation if you don’t care to much about it.

Anyways, enjoy the song :D I don’t think the lyrics are 100% accurate, so by all means
look for different ones.



VERSE 1

C          C/B               Am               F
Broken bottles in the hotel lobby,
                 C                     E7                   Fill--------F
Seems to me like im just scared of ever feeling it again,
   C            E7            Fill------------F
I know its crazy to believe in silly things,
               G
its not that easy,

VERSE 2

I remember it now, it takes me back to where it all first started,
But I only got myself to blame for it, and i accept the now,
Its time to, let it all go, go out and start again,
but its not that easy.


CHORUS:
                  F       C
But I’ve got high hopes,
   C/B
It takes me back to
Fill-----------------F
when we started,
         C                        E7              Fill--------------F
High hopes, when you let it go, go out and start again,
          C             E7                Fill-----------------F
High hopes, ooohhh when it all comes to an end,
                                 G
But the world keeps spinning.

Instrumental (Verse Chords)


And in my dreams, I make the ghosts of all the people who’ve come and gone,
Memories, they seem to show up so quick but they leave you far too soon,
My evil, is just staring at the barrel of a gun,
and I do believe in,

Chorus,

F                      G
The world keeps spinning..

Instrumental

Chorus

F                         G
And the world keeps spinning x3
