Verso 1:  
C                   G  
I have never been a beautiful boy,  
Em                       D  
Never liked the sound of my own voice  
C                        G  
I wasn'’t cool when I was in my teens  
Em                  D  
I never slept but I did have dreams  
C                         G  
And as I step out in this big old world  
Em                 D  
Seven billion just tryin' to cope and  
C                    G  
Every one of us some day will die but  
Em                 D  
Today I never felt more alive  

Pré-Refrão: 
        Am  
Can you feel it coming?  

Can you feel it coming?  

Can you feel it, feel it, feel it?  


                     Cadd9  G  
Running through your bo-o-ones?  
                     Cadd9  G  
Running through your b-o-ones?  
                Em7  
Yeah you set my heart on fire  
        D                    Cadd9  D  
And it’s all hard-wired to my bo-o-ones  

Verso 2:  
C                   G  
I can count all the things I fear  
Em                             D  
I close my eyes but they don'’t disappear  
C                              G  
If there'’s a God then there’s a guarantee  
Em                           D  
But if there’'s not it'’s just you and me  

Pré-Refrão:  
        Am  
Can you feel it coming?  

Can you feel it coming?  

Can you feel it, feel it, feel it?  


                     Cadd9  G  
Running through your bo-o-ones?  
                     Cadd9  G  
Running through your b-o-ones?  
                Em7  
Yeah you set my heart on fire  
        D                    Cadd9  D  
And it’s all hard-wired to my bo-o-ones  
 

Bridge:  

   Cadd9              Em7  
So kiss me before the sun falls down  
D                Em7  
Run before your legs give way  
Cadd9           Em7  
Swallow it all till you drown  

Pré-Refrão:  
        Am  
Can you feel it coming?  

Can you feel it coming?  

Can you feel it, feel it, feel it?  


                     Cadd9  G  
Running through your bo-o-ones?  
                     Cadd9  G  
Running through your b-o-ones?  
                Em7  
Yeah you set my heart on fire  
        D                    Cadd9  G  
And it’s all hard-wired to my bo-o-ones  
                     Cadd9  G  
Running through your b-o-ones?  
                Em7  
Yeah you set my heart on fire  
        D                    Cadd9  D  
And it’s all hard-wired to my bo-o-ones  
                     Cadd9  D  
Running through my b-o-ones?  
                     Cadd9  D  
Running through my b-o-ones?
