James Bay - Stand Up: chords

        D#
We were kids
         F
Lookin' out into nothin'
         D#                 F
Lookin' for a way to get around at night
         D#
We were kids
         A#
Holdin' out for a dream
         F
We were born to be wild and free
                Gm
Or sit alone online

                  D#
But I don't wanna wait
Sit the other side of these flood lights
Dreaming up a way to escape
        Gm
Anyone around?
Get me mission control,
give me a sound on the radio

Chorus:
      Gm         F
Stand up and be counted
           A#           D#maj7
Before we slip away out here
           Cm     A#         Dm A#
Before we slip away, slip away
Gm          F
Don't ever doubt it
    Cm            A#
Even if we're surrounded
             D#   A#
Don't wanna slip away, slip away

We were Kings
We were Queens of an empire
We were made out on these streets
We were all desire

So, if we're gonna break
If we're gonna tumble in the gunfire
Promise we'll be side by side
Say you'll be there when the school gates close
Say you'll be there when the rest don't show

Chorus

         D#
High on hope and high on fear
        Cm
We were heartbreak of the year
         Gm                      F
We were stackin' up to fall (oh, oh)
         D#
We were summers in the street
         Cm
We were sunlight through the trees
         Gm                           F
We were born for silver screens (oh, oh)

We were whispers in the dark
We were sleeping under stars
Singing, "all of this is ours" (Oh oh)
We were rollercoaster screams
'Til our hearts burst at the seams
We're not gonna let it all go up in smoke

Stand up and be counted
Before we slip away out here
Before we slip away, slip awa
