Verse
F       C
I don't believe the absolutes anymore
Gm        A#
I'm quite prepared to admit I was wrong
F            C
This life it sucks your principles away
Gm                 A#
You have to fight against it every single day

Chorus
Dm            A#               Gm
These are the postcards from a young man
Gm                A#          Csus4 C
They may never be written or posted again
F             C                Gm
These are the postcards from a young man
Gm                A#          Csus4 C
They may never be written or posted again

Interlude:Gm, Csus4, C. X2

Verse
F          C
It is like so many other things
Gm         A#
As distant as your former sins
F          C
So sad and lonely and so derelict
Gm     A#
As the optimism that we once shared

Chorus
Dm            A#               Gm
These are the postcards from a young man
Gm                A#         Csus4  C
They may never be written or posted again
F             C                Gm
These are the postcards from a young man
Gm                A#         Csus4  C
They may never be written or posted again

Interlude: Gm, Csus4, C. X2

Bridge
Gm                      Csus4        C
I'll send you postcards every single day
Gm                    Csus4  C
Just to prove I still exist
Gm                  Csus4     C
This world will not impose its will
A#
I will not give up and I will not give in
C
And I will not give up and I will not give in

Outro
F, Fsus4. X2

F                             Fsus4
I won't betray your confidence
F                             Fsus4
I won't pretend my way was lost
F                             Fsus4
This world will not impose its will
F                                        F
I will not give up and I will not give in



I find the solo easier if you play it like this

D------5-3---------5-3-----|------5-3----------5-3-----|
A--3-3---------3-3---------|---------------------------|
