Bastille - Way Beyond Ukulele

[Verse 1]
Am        F                   Dm    Am
  The animals break out their ca - ges, now
Am          F             Dm   Am   
  Chaos is raining down around us
Am              F                  Dm    Am
  But here we stand with our arms fol - ded
                  Am   F       Dm  Am   
  Do you wanna be fr - ee of this?


[Verse 2]
Am            F             Dm  Am
  When panic rises like the oceans, we
Am               F                   Dm  Am          
  Just keep on flicking through the stations, 'cause
Am             F              Dm     Am   
  If we don't post it does it hap - pen?
                Am   F       Dm  Am
  Oh I wanna be fr - ee of this


[Pre-Chorus]
             F              G     Am
Have you and I been sleepwalking way too long?
               F             G  Am
Won't someone pour ice water on me?


[Chorus]
         G             C    F
It only matters if we care now,
           G          Am
If you're way beyond that
     F                   Dm          Am
Then I'm gonna dust you off of my shoulders
         G              C     F
And I remember when we cared now,
           G          Am
If you're way beyond that
     F                   Dm          Am           G
Then I'm gonna dust you off of my shoulders, my shoulders


[Verse 3]
Am            F          Dm    Am
  Movies and news on televi - sion
Am                F                Dm    Am
  Sometimes it's hard to tell the difference, oh
Am                  F                   Dm    Am
  When real life's more f**ked up than fic - tion
                  Am   F       Dm  Am
  Do you wanna be fr - ee of this?


[Pre-Chorus]
             F              G     Am
Have you and I been sleepwalking way too long?
               F             G  Am
Won't someone pour ice water on me?


[Chorus]
         G             C    F
It only matters if we care now,
           G          Am
If you're way beyond that
     F                   Dm          Am
Then I'm gonna dust you off of my shoulders
         G              C     F
And I remember when we cared now,
           G          Am
If you're way beyond that
     F                   Dm          Am    
Then I'm gonna dust you off of my shoulders


[Bridge]
         G          C             G
I don't wanna play dumb, dumb anymore
                    Am               F
I just wanna feel something, like before
                    C             G
I don't wanna feel numb, numb anymore
              Am                F   G
I just wanna something, like before


[Chorus]
                       C    F
It only matters if we care now,
           G          Am
If you're way beyond that
     F                   Dm          Am
Then I'm gonna dust you off of my shoulders
         G              C     F
And I remember when we cared now,
           G          Am
If you're way beyond that
     F                   Dm          Am           G
Then I'm gonna dust you off of my shoulders, my shoulders


[Spoken]
C                             F                       G                    
("Television viewers have the choice of watching the tragedy play out
         Am                            F           Dm
from the seating and comfort of their living rooms
           Am                            G                        C        F
But victims have to respond to the pressure of the media while still in shock")


[Ending]
           G          Am
If you're way beyond that
     F                   Dm          Am            G
Then I'm gonna dust you off of my shoulders, my shoulders
