5 Seconds of Summer (also known as 5SOS) are a 4-piece Australian pop rock/pop punk band. Formed in Sydney, New South Wales, Australia in 2011, the band consists of Luke Hemmings (lead vocals, guitar), Michael Clifford (guitar, vocals), Calum Hood (bass guitar, vocals) and Ashton Irwin (drums, vocals). The group were originally YouTube celebrities, posting videos of themselves covering songs from various artists in 2011. From there, they gained a small following in 2012 after posting a series of cover versions of popular songs onto YouTube

Beside You - 5 Seconds Of Summer -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
So I came across with this version and I'm pretty sure it sounds the way 5SOS play it. I think they use power chords without a capo but with one it sounds great.
*Capo: As I said, if you use power chords you do not need a capo, if not put it on the 2nd fret. *Tunning: Standard (EADGBe) *Strumming pattern: You can play just DOWN strokes or DDUUDD fits well. * Chords: {with a capo} (EADGBe) C: x32010 G: 320033 Am: x02210 F: 133211 or x03210 Csus: x30010 D: xx0232 Em: 022000
If you need the power chords ask me in a comment, I think they are the same chords I put here but well, as power chords.
Here we go!

VERSE:
CG Within a minute I was all packed up AmF I've got a ticket to another world; CG I don't wanna go, Am I don't wanna go. CG Suddenly words are hard to speak, AmF When your thoughts are all I see CGAm "Don't ever leave", she said to me.
PRE-CHORUS:
GD When we both fall asleep, underneath the same sky, EmC To the beats of our hearts at the same time GDC So close but so far away, Csus Can you hear me?
CHORUS:
G She sleeps alone C My heart wants to come home EmD I wish I was, I wish I was C Beside you. G She lies awake C Trying to find the words to say EmD I wish I was, I wish I was C Beside you.
VERSE:
CG Another day, and I'm somewhere new, AmF I made a promise that I'll come home soon CGFAm Bring me back, bring me back to you.

EmC There are pieces of us both Em Under every city light, CG And they're shining as we fade into the night
CHORUS: (* strum once)

CHORUS:
G She sleeps alone C My heart wants to come home; EmD I wish I was, I wish I was C Beside you. G She lies awake, C Trying to find the words to say; EmD I wish I was, I wish I was C Beside you.
