City and Colour - Meant To Be Chords

[Intro]
C  Bb  Am  F
C  Bb  Am  F


[Verse 1]
N.C.   C
When I grew up
      Am       F
I had big city dreams
                  C
I wondered if the Bible was wrong
                   Am            F
What the hell were they teaching me?
      C
I was lost in thought
                Am       F
And I could not hide it
                         C
But the sun - it kept on risin'
             Am          F
So, I played along


[Chorus 1]
        N.C.        C
But now that you're gone and
                      Bb
And I write down this song
            Am                            F
I don't believe this is how it's meant to be
                      C
The church bells they ring
                          Bb
You can hear the mourners sing
           Am
They still believe
                       F
This is how it's meant to be


[Verse 2]
    C
The wheels touch down
          Am          F
All I can see is your face
           C
Amidst the noise of the lights
                     Am          F
The last thing on my mind was my faith
             C
And then the morning came
                    Am       F
And the sun started rising
                  C
But I was missing my friend
                   Am        F
So, how do I carry on?


[Chorus 2]
                      C
Cause now that you're gone and
                      Bb
And I write down this song
            Am                            F
I don't believe this is how it's meant to be
                      C
The church bells they ring
                          Bb
You can hear the mourners sing
           Am
They still believe
                          F
This is how it's meant to be


[Bridge]
Am            C                       F
Like a mother bird crying out for its young
               G
I will sing it loud with
                    F
all the might in my lungs


[Chorus 3]
N.C.                  C
Cause now that you're gone and
                      Bb
And I write down this song
            Am
I don't believe this is
                  F
how it's meant to be
                      C
The church bells they ring
                          Bb
You can hear the mourners sing
           Am
They still believe
                          F
This is how it's meant to be


[Outro]
   C  Bb    Am  F
Hey     Oh
                      C
Oh how it's meant to be,
    Bb  Am  F  C
yeah
