Quick note: The F#m chords played during the intro and the instrumental between Chorus and Verse 2
are played on the 9th fret. Every other F#m chord is played on the 2nd fret. That's just to give it more of a
"studio recording sound" but of course, it doesn't matter where you play it, it'll still be the same chord.

Spin it away, spin it away, spinning

As I say I'll catch you tomorrow
