Dm   C   Bbadd9   Bbadd9  

Dm              C
  Look at this now
         Bbadd9
Me on my own
               Bbadd9
Here with the stars
           Dm
Sleeping alone
                    C
It’s just like the times
                Bbadd9   Bbadd9
When I was not grown

Dm                      C
  But now things have changed
                   Bbadd9
It’s somehow more cold 
                    Bbadd9
It’s somehow more strange
                 Dm
I’m somehow less old
                C
I think once I find my shoes 
     Bbadd9         Bbadd9
I’d like to go home

F             Gm
Come out and find me
    Bbadd9       C
I’m here on the fence
F              Gm       Bbadd9   C
I’m only just slightly broken
     Dm   C   Bbadd9   Bbadd9   
And bent  

Dm                 C
  Now come on you two
                Bbadd9
It’s time to go in
                  Bbadd9
Let’s call it’s a tie
             Dm
So everyone wins
                 C
Our mothers are calling
                   Bbadd9          Bbadd9
You know we’re all boys in the end

F             Gm
Come out and find me
    Bbadd9       C
I’m here on the fence
F              Gm       Bbadd9     C
I’m only just slightly broken and bent

F                Gm
This game of go hide 
        Badd9        C
And no seek’s been okay 
F                Gm
But seems I had plans 
         Badd9  C    Dm   Am   Dm   C
With my family,   today

Dm              C
  Come on you stars
              Bbadd9
Shine now for me
               C
Light up this night 
                Bbadd9
This darkness I see
           C
I must confess
               Bbadd9
I’m somewhat afraid
             C
I mean no offence
               Bbadd9
But I wish to leave this place

F             Gm
Come out and find me
    Bbadd9       C
I’m here on the fence
F              Gm       Bbadd9     C
I’m only just slightly broken and bent
F                Gm
This game of go hide 
        Badd9        C
And no seek’s been okay 
F                Gm
But seems I had plans 
         Bbadd9   C    
With my family today   

F             Gm
Come out and join me
    Bbadd9       C
I’m here on the fence 
F                     Gm
It’s just an outdoor adventure 
  Bbadd9      C
A one-night event 
F                 Gm          Bbadd9        C
The stars and the moon in the sky are just right
F                   Gm
If we keep our eyes open
      Bbadd9   C
We’ll make it 
             Dm   Am
Through the night

How to practise this song

  1. 1

    Put your capo on fret 1

    Clamp the capo on before you start — otherwise the shapes won't sound like the original.

  2. 2

    Practise the barre chord F

    F is a barre chord. Lay your index finger flat across all strings and press firmly; practise it on its own until every string rings clearly before you use it in the song.

    Open
  3. 3

    Practise the change: F ↔ A

    Play each chord for 4 beats, then 2, then 1 — with the metronome at 60-70 bpm. Only push the tempo once the change is clean and on time.

    Open
  4. 4

    Great first song

    Focus on clean chords — let every string ring. Speed comes by itself once the shapes are right.
