Scars Lyrics

The used chord patterns are: G; C/E; Em; Csus2; D; Dsus2
you can use your thumb to play the 8th fret on the D string at the Csus2
during the whole song you can palm-mute the strings but you do not have to
C|--0--0-0----0--0--0-0-|-0h2-2-2-----0h2-2-2--2-----|---x--x-x-----x--x-x-x-|----0--0-0---0---|
The pattern played for the verse is very similar to the intro pattern, but if you want, you can add the D
string more frequently and it is also played louder than the rest, which is played quite softly
3rd fret, d string
(or the C string for the C/E chord. you can even add an 'f' if you
fancy it)

You're setting off, it's time to go, the engine's running
My mind's lost, we always knew this day was coming
And now it's more fright'ning than it's ever gonna be
We grow apart, I watch you on a red horizon
Your lion's heart, I would touch you on a stormy sky
And I will always be listening for your laughter and your tears
PR-HORUS
And as soon as I can hold you once again
I won't let go of you, I swear
HORUS
you can leave out the brackets for the G chord, because James Bay to plays them really fast and softly.
then you just strum it like the Cmaj3 chord pattern

Your hands are cold, your lips are turning blue, you're shaking
This fragile heart, so heavy in my chest, it's breaking
And in the dark, you try to make a pay phone call to me
But you're miles away, you're breaking up, you're on your own
It's hard to take, I need an hour just to say hello
And I can't make the truth of this work out for you or me
PR-HORUS
And for all the pennies in your pocket,
we barely get a second just to speak
