From the motion picture "Spectre" (James Bond series)

Intro: D#madd9 | F#maj | D#madd9 | F#maj

D#madd9          F#maj
I’ve been here before,
D#madd9             F#maj
But always hit the floor.
     Bmaj
I’ve spent a lifetime running
      Bbsus4
And I always get away,
         Bmaj
But with you I’m feeling something
     Bbsus4           Bb
That makes me want to stay.

D#madd9          F#maj
I’m prepared for this,
D#madd9          F#maj
I never shoot to miss.
      Bmaj
But I feel like a storm is coming
       Bbsus4
If I’m gonna make it through the day.
            Bmaj
And there’s no more use in running,
        Bbsus4            Bb
This is something I gotta face.

 D#m  C#/F F#   Bmaj
   If I risk it all,
 D#m     C#/F F#      Bb7   Bb9-
   Could you break my fall?

Chorus:
     Bb7      D#m            C#6add9
     How do I live? How do I breathe?
                     Bmaj             C#6add9
     When you’re not here, I’m suffocating.
                    D#m                  C#6add9
     I want to feel love, run through my blood.
                 Bmaj                     Bbm7
     Tell me, is this where I give it all up?
         G#m7                  Bbm7 Bb7
     For you I have to risk it all
                                 D#madd9
     ’Cause the writing’s on the wall.

Instrumental: D#madd9 | F#maj

D#madd9              F#maj
A million shards of glass
D#madd9               F#maj
That haunt me from my past.
       Bmaj
As the stars begin to gather,
        Bbsus4          Bb9-sus4 Bb7sus4
And the light begins to fade,
         Bmaj
When all hope begins to shatter,
          Bbsus4       Bb
Know that I won’t be afraid.

 D#m  C#/F F#   Bmaj
   If I risk it all,
 D#m     C#/F F#      Bb7   Bb9-
   Could you break my fall?

Chorus:
     Bb7      D#m            C#6add9
     How do I live? How do I breathe?
                     Bmaj             C#6add9
     When you’re not here, I’m suffocating.
                    D#m                  C#6add9
     I want to feel love, run through my blood.
                 Bmaj                     Bbm7
     Tell me, is this where I give it all up?
         G#m7                  Bbm7 Bb7
     For you I have to risk it all
                                 D#madd9 F#maj
     ’Cause the writing’s on the wall.
                     D#madd9    F#maj
     The writing’s on the wall.

Instrumental: B | Bbsus4 Bb7 | B | Bbsus4 Bb7

              D#m            C#6add9
     How do I live? How do I breathe?
                     Bmaj             C#6add9
     When you’re not here, I’m suffocating.
                    D#m                  C#6add9
     I want to feel love, run through my blood.
                 Bmaj                     C#6add9
     Tell me, is this where I give it all up?

              D#m            C#6add9
     How do I live? How do I breathe?
                     Bmaj             C#6add9
     When you’re not here, I’m suffocating.
                    D#m                  C#6add9
     I want to feel love, run through my blood.
                 Bmaj                     Bbm7
     Tell me, is this where I give it all up?
         G#m7                  Bbm7 Bb7
     For you I have to risk it all
                                  D#m
     ’Cause the writing’s on the wall.
