Bastille - Glory Chords

[intro]
D#m  B  F#  C#
D#m  B  F#  C#

[verse 1]
D#m                         B
 Deep in a corner of the night
           F#                          C#
We were lying in the middle of the road
D#m                                 B
 Counting the planes as they flew by
    F#                       C#
Inconceivable imagining them go
D#m                               B
 And drunk we set the world to rights
       F#                             C#
As we fell and hit our heads upon the curb
D#m                           B
 You make me laugh until I die
         F#                    C#
Can you think of any better way to choke?

[pre-chorus]
  B             D#m       C#              F#
Stories told to me and stories told to you
     B            D#m        C#                  F#
And did you ever feel like they were ringing true?

[chorus]
     B
And all their words for glory
 C#         D#m
Well they all, they sounded empty
 C#           F#
When we're looking up for heaven
  C#
Looking up for heaven
 B                        C#
Way down here upon the ground
            D#m
When we're lying in the dirt
   C#         F#
There's no looking up for heaven
  C#                  D#m B F# C#
Looking up for heaven

[verse 2]
D#m                            B
  Not everything had gone to plan
          F#                                  C#
  But we made the best of what we had, you know
D#m                                B
  Passing the drink from hand to hand
       F#                              C#
  We admit we really know nothing at all

[pre-chorus]
  B             D#m       C#              F#
Stories told to me and stories told to you
     B              D#m         C#                 F#
And was it feeling real, and were they ringing true?

[chorus]
     B
And all their words for glory
 C#         D#m
Well they all, they sounded empty
 C#           F#
When we're looking up for heaven
  C#
Looking up for heaven
 B                        C#
Way down here upon the ground
            D#m
When we're lying in the dirt
   C#         F#
There's no looking up for heaven
  C#                 D#m
Looking up for heaven

[bridge]
                             B              D#m
I'll take my chances on the curb here with you
           C#                 A#m
We watched the planes leave us behind
        B              D#m
On the curb here with you
           C#                 A#m
We watched the planes leave us behind
            B                        C#
And...and then you put your hand in mine
     D#m                          C#
And pulled me back from things divine
       F#                      C#
Stop looking up for heaven, waiting to be buried

[chorus]
     B
And all their words for glory
 C#         D#m
Well they all, they sounded empty
 C#           F#
When we're looking up for heaven
  C#
Looking up for heaven
 B                        C#
Way down here upon the ground
            D#m
When we're lying in the dirt
   C#         F#
There's no looking up for heaven
  C#
Looking up

[outro]
B  C# D#m

B  C# D#m
C# F#  C#
B  D#m  C#  A#m
