[Intro]
C F C F
[Verse 1: Niall]
         C                       F
We made a fire, went down in the flames
            C                         F
We sailed an ocean and drowned in the waves
         C                       F
Built a cathedral, but we never prayed
          C                      F
We had it all, yeah and we walked away
[Chorus: Harry]
G                                                       F
Point of no return and now it's just too late to turn around
G                                                       F
I try to forgive you but I struggle cause I don't know how
G                                 G (ONE STRUM)
We built it up so high and now I'm falling
                C                     F
It's a long way down, it's a long way down from here
[Verse 2: Louis]
                C                   F
We had a mountain, but took it for granted
           C                       F
We had a spaceship, but we couldn't land it
            C                  F
We found an island, but we got stranded
           C                     F
We had it all yeah, who could've planned it?
[Chorus: Liam]
G                                                        F
Point of no return and now it's just too late to turn around
G                                                           F
I try to forgive you, but I'm struggling cause I don't know how
G                               G(ONE STRUM)
We built it up so high and now I'm falling
                C         F                     C             F
It's a long way down from here, such a long way down from here
                 C  F
It's a long way down, 
                C    F
it's a long way down
                 C   F
Such a long way down, 
                 C    F
it's a long way down, 
                 C   F
it's a long way down
