Ben Howard - Keep Your Head Up Chords

VERSE 1
C                Em7 
I spent my time, watching
     D/F#       G             C
The spaces that have grown between us.
                     Em7
And I cut my mind on second best,
        D/F#      G             C   
Oh the scars that come with the greenness.
                          Em7
And I gave my eyes to the boredom,
           D/F#       G          C
Still the seabed wouldn't let me in.
                             Em7
And I try my best to embrace the darkness
D/F#   G     C
In          which I swim.

VERSE 2
C                           Em7
Now walking back, down this mountain,
    D/F#          G       C
The strength of a turnin' tide.
                            Em7
Oh the wind so soft, and my skin,
         D/F#   G         C
Yeah the sun so hot upon my side.
                       Em7
Oh lookin' out at this happiness
   D/F#          G         C
I searched for between the sheets,
                    Em7
Oh feelin' blind, I realize,
D/F#      G         C     
All I was searchin' for... was me.
   Em7    D/F#      G         C      
Oh oh-oh, all I was searchin' for was me.
D
Oh yeah

CHORUS
Em7                D               C
keep your head up, keep your heart strong no, no, no, no,
Em7                 D              C 
keep your mind set, keep your hair long Oh my, my darlin'.
Em7                D               C
keep your head up, keep your heart strong Na, oh, no, no.
Em7                D                                C
keep your mind set in your ways.... Keep your heart strong.


VERSE 2 (same as verse 1)
C                                     Em 
Now I saw a friend of mine, the other day,
       D/F#         G            C 
And he told me that my eyes were gleamin'.
                                Em
Oh I said I'd been away, and he knew...
      D/F#     G            C   
Oh he knew the depths I was meanin'.
                       Em
And it felt so good to see his face,
        D/F#      G            C
All the comfort invested in my soul,
                              Em
Oh to feel the warmth, of his smile,
        D/F#       G                 C
When he said, 'I'm happy to have you home.
   Em         D/F#     G        C       
Oh oh-oh, I'm happy to have you home.
D
Oh yeah


CHORUS 


BRIDGE
G                D/F#               C
'Cause I'll always remember you the same.
G                D/F#                  C
Oh eyes like wildflowers, oh with your demons of change.
D                                 
Ohhh May you find happiness here.
D                                         
Ohhh May all your hopes all turn out right.


CHORUS


ENDING:

'Cause I'll always remember you the same.

Oh eyes like wildflowers, oh with your demons of change.
