VERSE I

  E     G  A                                     Playing tip: the G chord is strummed as a
I see me                                         "passing-by" chord, only once. Strum mainly
                   E      G  A                   the lower strings. Check the referenced video.
Oh, you won't even see me
        E      G  A
Yeah, I see you
                             E          G  A
In fact I'm looking straight through you

                             E      G  A
And now you say you're gonna fool me
                                  E     G  A
Ain't 'bout a place where he does see me
                                 E       G  A
But that don't mean that I can't free you
                            E      G  A
'Cause I don't always wanna see you


PRE-CHORUS

G#
The only thing that kept us apart
         C#m    C#m/C  Bm              Playing tip: C#m and C#m/C only differ in the root note,
Was your colder loving heart           which is located in the A string. To change between those
               B5                      chords, only move your index finger slightly.
You can't pull hard back to me


CHORUS

     E                          A
What happened to the joy in the hearts of the boys?
        E                        A
At the start of the part of the scene?
        E                       A
They go harder it seems, dreams shared and pulled apart
    E                        A
One dream broken by two libertines

VERSE II

               E   G  A
You think it's easy     
                              E        G  A
Not with a best friend that deceives me
                          E   G  A
Oh, yeah, it's so hard to bear
                         E     G  A
When he got cat man to him come


PRE-CHORUS

G#
The only thing that kept it going on
    C#m                     C#m/C       Bm
Was lust for companionship, whiskey and song
                B5
How would it go wrong?

They go harder, it seems, dreams shared and pulled apart
    E                        A     E (let ring)
One dream broken by two libertines
