Kodaline – High Hopes
Key: E Major BPM: ♩ = 77 Time: 4/4
|E        B/D#          |C#m        |
   Broken bottles in the hotel lobby
|A          E               |G#7       -     C#m     C#m/B   |
   Seems to me like I'm just scared of never feeling it
|A       E        |G#7   -    C#m      C#m/B   |A                          |B   |
again, I know it's crazy to believe in silly    things, but it's not that easy

|E               B/D#            |C#m                              |
   I remember it now, it takes me back to when it all first started
|A               E            |G#7       -       C#m  C#m/B   |
   But I've only got myself to blame for it, and I  accept it
|A         E      |G#7    -      C#m     C#m/B   |A                      |B   |
 now, it's time to let it go, go out and start   again, but it's not that easy

            |A      E        |B        -       C#m     C#m/B  |
But I've got   high hopes, it takes me back to when we started
|A      E              |G#7       -      C#m     C#m/B   |
   High hopes, when you    let it go, go out and start
|A    |E         |G#7  -         C#m  C#m/B      |A                       |B       |
again, High hopes,       when it all  comes to an end, but the world keeps spinning

|E    B/D#    |C#m    |A    E    |G#7  -  C#m   C#m/B   |
around
|A            |B      |

|E           B/D#              |C#m                                       |
   And in my dreams, I meet the ghosts of all the people who have come and
|A         E                      |G#7   -              C#m       C#m/B   |
 gone, memories, they seem to show up so quick but they leave you far too
|A       E             |G#7     -      C#m    C#m/B   |A              |B               |
 soon, naive I was just staring at the barrel of a     gun, and I do believe that, yeah

            |A      E        |B        -       C#m     C#m/B   |
But I've got   high hopes, it takes me back to when we started
|A      E              |G#7       -      C#m     C#m/B   |
   High hopes, when you    let it go, go out and start
|A    |E         |G#7  -         C#m  C#m/B      |A                           |B   |
again, high hopes,       when it all  comes to an end, but the world keeps spinning
|A                      |B         |
   Yeah, the world keeps   spinning

|E    B/D#    |C#m    |A    E    |G#7  -  C#m   C#m/B   |
around

|A      E        |B        -       C#m     C#m/B   |
   High hopes, it takes me back to when we started
|A      E              |G#7      -      C#m     C#m/B   |
   High hopes, when you   let it go, go out and start
