Let's go! No capo needed to match studio version :)
If you see any mistakes you want changing, leave a comment and I'll take a look.
N.B The starred C#m in the bridge might sound odd. To fix this you can: -play Dmaj7 chord (just remove the finger from B string) -just play the bass line on the a string (C# is 4th fret)

[Intro]
BmF#mGA
[Verse 1] (Michael)
BmF#m Everybody’s got their demons GA Even wide awake or dreaming BmF#mGA I’m the one who ends up leaving, make it okay
BmF#m See a war I wanna fight it GA See a match I wanna strike it BmF#mG Every fire I’ve ignited, fade it to grey
[Pre-Chorus] (Michael)
ABm But now that I’m broken F#mG Now that you know it ABm Caught up in the moment F#mG Can you see inside?
[Chorus] (Michael)
Cause I’ve, got a jet black heart A And there’s a hurricane underneath it BmG Trying to keep us, apart ABmG I write with the poison pen, A But these chemicals moving between us BmG Are the reason to start again
BmF#mGA
[Verse 2] (Luke)
BmF#m Now I’m holding on for dear life GA There’s no way that we can rewind Bm Maybe there’s nothing after midnight F#mG That could make you stay
[Pre-Chorus] (Luke)
ABm But now that I’m broken F#mG Now that you know it ABm Caught up in the moment F#mG Can you see inside?
[Chorus] (Luke)
ABmG Cause I’ve, got a jet black heart A And there’s a hurricane underneath it BmG Trying to keep us, apart ABmG I write with the poison pen, A But these chemicals moving between us BmG Are the reason to start again
D (Woah-oh woah-oh)
[Bridge] (Calum)
D * C#m The blood in my veins is made up of mistakes Bm Let’s forget who we are and dive in to the dark G As we burst into colour DC#m We turn into life
[Chorus] (Michael)
Cause I’ve, got a jet black heart A And there’s a hurricane underneath it BmG Trying to keep us, apart ABmG I write with the poison pen, A But these chemicals moving between us BmG Are the reason to start again
DBmGA (The blood in my veins is made up of mistakes) To start again ABmG (Let’s forget who we are and dive in...)
