Verse
G                          D    C          D
I love the feeling when we lift up
G                           D  C           D
Watching the world so small below
G                          D     C         D
I love the dreaming when I think of
G                               D    C     D
The safety in the clouds out my window
G                         D    C           D
I wonder what keeps us so high up
G                             D     C      D
Could there be a love beneath these wings
G                            D      C      D
If we suddenly fall should I scream out
G                                  Bm
Or keep very quite and cling to my mouth as I'm crying
Bm-D ("-" means quick change)
So frightened of dying
D-G
Relax yes I’m trying
    A           C       G
But fears got a hold on me
Bm                                  Em
       Yes, this fears got a hold on me
Bm               D                   G
       Yes, this fears got a hold on me

(change of rhythm here: 12 times G , and Em and C each 6 times - listen to the 
song than you will understand)

G Em C x2
[ Tab from: https://www.guitartabs.cc/tabs/w/white_lies/death_acoustic_crd.html ]
G                                   Em C
I love the quite of the night time
G                                   Em C
When the sun in the deathly sea
G                                            Em C
I can feel my heart beating as I speed from
G                                       Em C
Then sense of time catching up with me
G                              Em C
The sky set out like a pathway
G                                   Em C
But who decides which route we take
G                                    Em C
As people drift into a dream world
G                                     Bm
I close my eyes as my hands shake and when I see a new day
Bm---D
Who's driving this anyway
D-G
I picture my own grave
      A           C       G
Cause fears got a hold on me
Bm                                Emc
     Yes this fears got a hold on me
Bm            D                   G
     Yes this fears got a hold on me
Bm                                Em
     Yes this fears got a hold on me
Bm                                G (let ring)
     Yes this fears got a hold on me

C                D            G                Em
Floating neither up or down I wonder when I'll hit the ground
         C                D
Will the earth beneath my body shake
    G                  Em
And cast your sleeping hearts awake
         C                  D
Could it tremble stars from moonlit skies
         G                Em
Could it drag a tear from your cold eyes
  C                        D
I live on the right side I sleep in the left
          C(?)
Thats why everythings got to be love or death

Yes this fears got a hold on me.....
