Collide
This starts with a piano solo, which I didn’t tab,
but here are the chords in case you want ’em.
Intro: F# E Em B F# E Em B
Guitar comes in with: F# A B (3x) G D
Vs 1 (bass only):
F# B
Open up your box of sunshine
F# B
and smile as confetti comes raining down on you
F# B
You feel a lot like the good guy, but do you know why
F#
Everything’s so blue
Vs 2 (guitar comes in):
F# B
Well, love is fire and the coals are barely burning
F# B
Cold fills the emptiness that fills this empty place
F# B

and that’s not how it’s supposed to be
Chorus:
F# A B

F# A B
I, I collide with love as an elusive state of mind

Vs 3:
F# B
