Here are the chords to "One of Us" by Guy Sebastian.
I think that the song is really fantastic! I love the dark
mood and sound, as well as the unusual chord progression. And
as a cherry on top - to finish it off, it even has a key change! (which
really surprised me the first time I heard this song)
As I mentioned earlier, this song has an unusual chord progression so as
a result there are many barre chords. I've tried to simplify it as much as I
could with my placement of the capo but some barre chords still remain.
I don't recommend this song for beginners. Also during the key change, the chords
I tabbed out are for capo 4. However you could also move your capo up to fret 5
and play Bm, E, G, and F instead. Have fun playing this song :)
CAPO ON FRET 4
INTRO:
Bm G#m Bm
VERSE 1:
Bm Why is it so, that when it gets dark
G#m You see so much clearer, the state of your heart
G Yeah it hurts through the day, but when you're in bed
F# That's when you lose, the war with your head
Bm And just when you think, you've climbed out of hell
G#m All you need is a trigger, like a familiar smell
G Then you're drowning in memories, you can't erase
F# 'Cause no one can take their place
CHORUS:
Bm One of us is stronger
G One of us can stay awake
Em And one of us can not send a message at 3am
F# Saying I miss you babe
Bm One of us sleeps longer,
E One of us is done with crying
G One of us don't feel like they die, whenever they realise
F# This is not a dream
G F# Bm I just wish that one of us was me
VERSE 2:
Bm I don't wanna hear, about fish in the sea
G#m Or that I can Do better, that it's just meant to be
G 'Cause if there is a reason, that I can't find one
F# Then I'm tired of looking, I'm tired, I'm done
Bm The truth is I know, its me who's at fault
G#m 'Cause I took you for granted, I never gave you my all
G Wish that I held you tighter, when I had the chance
F# And not let you slip through my hands
CHORUS:
Bm One of us is stronger
G One of us can stay awake
Em And one of us can not send a message at 3am
F# Saying I miss you babe
Bm One of us sleeps longer,
E One of us is done with crying
G One of us don't feel like they die, whenever they realise
F# This is not a dream
G F# Em I just wish that one of us was me
BRIDGE:
Bm Em They say time heals all wounds (Time heals all wounds)
Bm A G But clearly time ain't met you (Time ain't met you)
D 'Cause if he did he would understand
E That I can't live without
F# I can't live without you
CHORUS:
Bm One of us is stronger
G One of us can stay awake
Em And one of us can not send a message at 3am
F# Saying I miss you babe
