Before The Line chords by Dodie

Tuning: Standard (E A D G B E)

🎸 Verse 1:
C     F                 C
 I used to smile at every star and thank the sky
C      F              C
 Now I look up to all the duds and wonder why
      D7
I feel like all of them are gone
Fm
 Can't feel a single one


🎸 Verse 2:
  C       F             C
And so I stretch my eyes across the land and sea
 C        F              C
I know I loved the world, but now it's flat to me
        D7
Oh, tell me, did someone snatch the light?
Fm
 Why doesn't it look right?

🎸 Chorus:
C     Gm       F
 I made a promise, but I break it every day
C      Gm        F
 It's not my fault, for I was promised just the same
G#               A#
Once I saw fire, and all I know is something happened
       F C
Did I let it go?

Fm C


🎸 Verse 3:
              F
Now every morning since the line between my lives
C                F
 I greet the sun and ask, "Have I already died?
      D7
If not, then why am I alone?
Fm
 And when can I come home?"


🎸 Bridge:

Oh, and I am lying when I say
              D
It's time to let her float away
               C#
No, I'm still clawing for the strings
            Fm
Oh, I'd do any fucking thing
              D#
I know I have to close the door
            D
Too much to miss it anymore

I think that this really is it
C#
 I'll have to take what I can get

I'll have to take what I can get

What I can get


🎸 Chorus:
C     Gm       F
 I made a promise, but I break it every day
C      Gm        F
 It's not my fault, for I was promised just the same
G#               A#
Once I saw fire, and all I know is something happened
       F C
Did I let it go?
C     Gm       F
 I made a promise, but I break it every day
C      Gm        F
 It's not my fault, for I was promised just the same
G#               A#
Once I saw fire, and all I know is something happened

Did I let it go?
G#               A#
Once I saw fire, and all I know is something happened

Did I let it go?
