[Intro]
B F#m A B
B F#m A B
[Verse 1]
B F#m
The first snow, first winter of my life
A B
I was told it was the height of me
B F#m
The first dance, well, the first one that counted
A B
Felt like my blood was built from crackling lights
[Pre-Chorus 1]
B F#m
All this ancient wildness
A B
That we don't understand
B F#m
The first sound of a heartbeat
A B
To riots roaring on
[Chorus]
B F#m
This is not a love you've had before
A B
This is something else, this is something else
B F#m
This is not the same as other days
A B
This is something else, this is something else
B F#m
Shouldn't need to be so fucking hard
A B
This is life on earth, it's just life on earth
B F#m
It doesn't need to be the end of you, or me
A B
This is life on earth, it's just life on earth
B F#m A B
[Verse 2]
B F#m
The first light, first light on the silent shore
A B
Just the ships that anchor me and you
B F#m
The way home, this is always the way home
A B
So you can rip that map to shreds, my dear
[Pre-Chorus 2]
B F#m
But all we ever wanted
A B
See miles and miles from here
B F#m
In the first days in a strange new land
A B
We could be sailors
[Chorus]
B F#m
This is not a love you've had before
A B
This is something else, this is something else
B F#m
This is not the same as other days
A B
This is something else, this is something else
B F#m
Shouldn't need to be so fucking hard
A B
This is life on earth, it's just life on earth
B F#m
It doesn't need to be the end of you, or me
A B
This is life on earth, it's just life on earth
B F#m A B
B F#m A B
[Refrain]
B F#m
Shouldn't need to be so fucking hard
A B
This is life on earth, it's just life on earth
B F#m
It doesn't need to be the end of you, or me
A B
This is life on earth, it's just life on earth
