Hi!
I couldn't find the chords for this song anywhere,
so I decided to write them myself.
As this is my first time I tab a song, I am open to corrections,
suggestions, critics and comments...

For any feedback please refer to my mail, however bear in mind I am no LUKE:)

[Intro]
Bm7  E7 (2x)



[Verse 1]
   	      Bm7        E7
You're just a mile away
	     Bm7   		   E7
One thousand five tiny steps from here
	 G
But if I brought you near
A	     E7		 Bm7   E7  Bm7
Would you believe when I say



[Verse 2]
	      Bm7	 E7
It seems like yesterday
	     Bm7                      E7
That I could reach out and touch your face
	 G
But as I fall from grace
A	   E7	       Bm7   E7  Bm7
Into whose arms can I lay


[Bridge 1]
F#			   G5 \ A5 / G5*  F#
   It's always much too late
   	      E
   We get the signs
F#       		G5 \ A5 / G5*  F#
   We can't communicate
   		G    A**
   Or turn back time


[Chorus]
B  		   F#m
   So what will be now
		   A
   Do you feel somehow
             E				B
   Not so together and not quite as strong
	   F#m***
   Now I believe
   D		 A		F#m
   Alone doesn't have to mean lonely
   E             Bm7
   After you've gone


[Verse 3]
I need a healing wind
To cool the flame burning in my sight
It must accelerate
For two wrongs they don't make a right


[Bridge 2]
And all these solitaires,
lone victories
Wars fought in isolation,
with none to please


[Chorus]


[Instrumental break]
Bm7  E7  G  E7 (2x)


[Bridge 3]
The future's still uncertain
The past is done


[Chorus]


Now I believe
Alone doesn't have to mean lonely
After you've gone

Now I believe
Alone doesn't have to mean lonely
After you've gone

either play each power chord once (fastly) or, better,
slide up to A5 and back down

G |--2--------2--------------|
