Back 2 U (feat. Walk The Moon) by Steve Aoki
There is an alternative intro tab at the end. I tabbed it out like this to get more separation between notes.
The intro tab is repeated over and over until ‘And only heaven knows’. Then the interlude comes in, a tab for
that synth part is also at the end.
And remember, all tabs are relative to the capo. (So in the high interlude section, the 12 looks like 15)

[Verse 1]
Em C G
I was a child walking with giants a hundred feet tall
Em C G
Out in the wild, you wouldn’t believe all the things that I saw
Em C G
I took a high road out in the open under those stars
Em C G
And all the while I just got closer to goin’ too far
[Chorus]
Em C G
So now I’m running like you set me free out in the wild (eh, eh, eh)
Em C G
I know you want me to come home but it might take a while (eh, eh, eh-eh-eh)
Em C G
I got my heart in my hands while my head’s up in the clouds (eh, eh, eh-eh-eh)
C
And only heaven knows
D
If I’ll make it back

If I’ll make it back
[Verse 2]
Em C G
Where the sand runs into the ocean’s where I’ll get lost
Em C G
And let the raindrops fall all around my castle of cards
Em C G
Faced with the lions I felt the courage leavin’ my heart
Em C G
‘Cause even I know every battle leaves you with scars
[Chorus]
Em C G
So now I’m running like you set me free out in the wild (eh, eh, eh)
Em C G
I know you want me to come home but it might take a while (eh, eh, eh-eh- eh)

I got my heart in my hands while my head’s up in the clouds (eh, eh, eh-eh-eh)
