Patrick Watson - Giver
To simplify I wrote the main theme as A and B section. The A section is divided in
two. The "+" signs show where the beats are.
A Section (in 4/4) (the first time you play this, play the first part, and any
subsequent repetition play the second part)

E Emaj7
Is it just me or do you feel a little strange
E Emaj7
Is it just me or do you feel a change
C#7 F#m7 F E Emaj7
And now is it me, how about you
E Emaj7
Isn’t strange that time’s all a little fast
E Emaj7
Isn’t strange that nothing ever last
C#7 F#m7 F E
And now is it me, how about you
C#7 F#m7 F E
Well now is it me, how about you
CHORUS:
E C#m7
Don’t be a fool
D#7
Well don’t be afraid
F#m7 B7 E7
Nothing’s really ever supposed to last
E C#m7
Don’t be a fool
D#7
Well don’t be afraid
F#m7 B7 E7
Everybody needs to meet the end
E Emaj7
Isn’t it fun at the very edge of the world
E Emaj7
Where talk is like walking on broken glass
E Emaj7
No need to threat I’m in the same hands as you
E Emaj7
One of these days I’m gonna meet my matchmaker too
(play CHORUS again)
Over these lyrics :
G#m7 - D#7/G - F#m7 - B7 - E7
Oh that is why
Oh that is why I feel I feel so alive
At the edge of the world
Well no is it me
How about you
