E6 A E7M
Come up to meet you, tell you I'm sorry
You don't know how lovely you are
E6 A E7M
I had to find you, Tell you I need you
Tell you I set you apart
E6 A E7M
Tell me your secrets, And ask me your questions
Oh, let's go back to the start
E6 A E7M
Running in circles, Coming up tails
Heads on a science apart

E6 A E7M
I was just guessing, At numbers and figures
Pulling the puzzles apart
E6 A E7M
Questions of science, Science and progress
Don't speak as loud as my heart
E6 A E7M
Tell me you love me, Come back and haunt me
Oh, and I rush to the start
E6 A E7M
Running in circles, Chasing tails
Coming back as we are
E6 A E7M
Nobody said it was easy, Oh It's such a shame for us to part
E6 A E7M
Nobody said it was easy, No one ever said it would be this hard

How to practise this song
- 1
Practise the barre chord Ab
Ab 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 - 2
Practise the change: Ab ↔ 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 - 3
Great first song
Focus on clean chords — let every string ring. Speed comes by itself once the shapes are right.
