This is a really beautiful song by Snow Patrol. I have no idea if this tab is right,

but loved the song so much I thought I'd try to work it out.

(I play the G Like this: 3-2-0-0-1-x, don't think it matters though)

Intro/Verse: C, Am, G, F

Chorus: G, Am, F

C Am G F

The earth is warm next to my ear

C Am G F

Insects noise is all that I hear

C Am G F

A magic trick makes the world disappear

C Am G F

The skies are dark, they're dark but they're clear

G Am F

A distant motorcade and suddenly there's joy

G Am F

The snow and tickertape blurs all my senses numb

G Am F

It's like the finish line where everything just ends

G Am F

The crack of radios seems close enough to touch

C Am G F

Cold water, cleaning my wounds

C Am G F

A side parade, with a single balloon

C Am G F

I'm done with this, I'm counting to ten

C Am G F

Blue as seas, running to them

G Am F

I feel like I am watching everything from space

G Am F

And in a minute I hear my name and I wake

G Am F

I think the finish line's a good place we could start

G Am F

Take a deep breath, take in all that you could want
