Francis Forever

• D

I based this mostly off of this acoustic version: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L05DH-MvPeA She plays it 
in open D tuning, using single notes in the verses, power chords in de chorus and full chords (major, even 
when it's awkward) for the outro. I put the minor chords where I thought they sounded alright and prefer to 
play in drop D but that's just my prerogative, live your own life! The chords are the same for the first 
verse/chorus/interlude-thing as they are for the second, with the exception of the E chord between two 
choruses.


D


F#m D                Bm     A
I don't know what to do without you
F#m D                 Bm      A
I don't know where to put my hands
F#m   D             Bm      A
I've been trying to lay my head down
D       F#m     G       A D
But I'm writing this at 3am

G       A        D    F#m  G
I don't need the world to see
          G        A          D   F#m
That I've been the best I can be, but
G       A             D    F#m G
I don't think I could stand to be
      G         A    F#m
Where you don't see me


interlude/outro:

F#m  D  F#m  D  G   D    |
                         | x2 (minus the last D the second time)
Bm   D  Bm   D  A   D    |


F#m D           Bm      A
On sunny days I go out walking
F#m D         Bm          A
I end up on a tree-lined street
F#m D             Bm     A
I look up at the gaps of sunlight
D F#m  G             A   D
I miss you more than anything

G       A        D    F#m  G
I don't need the world to see
          G        A          D   F#m
That I've been the best I can be, but
G       A             D    F#m  G
I don't think I could stand to be
      G         A   E
Where you don't see me

     G     A                 D   F#m  G
And autumn comes when you're not yet done
         G      A       D   F#m
With the summer passing by, but
G       A              D    F#m  G
I don't think I could stand to be
      G         A   F#m
Where you don't see me

F#m  D  F#m  D  G   D    |
                         | x2
Bm   D  Bm   D  A   D    |
