The Smile

[Intro] E  G#  E  G#

       E
I'm changing down the gears
G#
I'm slamming on the brakes
E
A vintage soft top from the 60s

E
We're coming to a bend now
G#
Skidding 'round the hairpin
E                                       G#
A sheer drop down the Italian mountainside

E
Time is kind of frozen
G#
You're gazing at the view
E                             G#
Now I'm sure I'm seeing double

E
No one's gonna bring me down, no
G#
No way and no how
E                         G#
I'm letting go of the wheel
G#                F# E
It might be as well
G#                F# E
It might be as well

G#                F# E
I've got these slings
G#                F# E
I've got these arrows
       B             A
I'll force myself to
G#                F# E
I've got these slings
G#                F# E
I've got these arrows
B                    A
I'll force myself to

G# F# E
Turn
G# F# E
Turn

E
The ground is coming for me now
G#
We've gone over the edge
E                                        G#
If you've got something to say, say it now

E
No one's gonna bring me down, no
G#
No way and no how
E                          G#
I'm letting go of the wheel

G#                F# E
Despite these slings
G#                F# E
Despite these arrows
      B              A
I'll force myself to
G#                F# E
Despite these slings
G#                F# E
Despite these arrows
      B              A
I'll force myself to
