First tab time- but i'm sure this is right- may not be with the music yet sounds good
anyways. Decided to work this out after seeing her in concert- amazing!
Sounds better with the chords played as barre chords- but can be played ern..non barred
Takes a while to get the rythmn right- ive situated the chords on exactly which word the change is.

I try to BmseeGk
But you're hDard to fAind
My will iBms wGeak
'Cause my soDul's resAigned
It's like I'm seBmeing yGou for the fiArst tDime
Still I feed my faith
Though it has no ground
And I tell myself I'm safe
As we're falling down
You said you'd let me know
If the end was near
Now do I let you go?
It's still unclear
But oh, good sense has gone to waste
And oh, it fades in your embrace
I know what keeps me in this place
Your smile
I try to speak
But my tongue gets tied
I try to seek
But you're hard to find
My will is weak
'Cause my soul's resigned
It's like I'm seeing you for the first time
And oh (whenever I try to speak) my tongue gets tied
And oh (whenever I try to seek) you're hard to find
And oh (whenver I try to feel) my soul's resigned
It's like I'm seeing you, for the first time
It's like I'm seeing you
It's like I'm seeing you
It's like I'm, I'm seeing you
It's like I'm seeing you
