This is tablature — fret positions rather than chord names. Wide lines scroll sideways on their own, so the page never does.

(no guitar for verse 1)

With nothing to lose

you'd waste away,

obscured in exile.

They've witnessed the times

you've gone astray,

whose fault? Now you're thinking...

There's nothing to prove...

A snapshot from the crowd to the shore, baby...

(no guitar for verse 2)

So strange are the ways

they all have changed,

still life it stays the same.

A break from the past

could make it last, oh,

maybe just a little longer.

There's nothing to prove...

A snapshot from the crowd to the shore, baby...

Full lyrics (what's in the song, not what's at the www.teaparty.com

website)

Verse 1:

With nothing to lose

you'd waste away,

obscured in exile.

They've witnessed the times

you've gone astray,

whose fault? Now you're thinking...

There's nothing to prove

A snapshot from the crowd to the shore, baby...

Chorus 1:

And it feels now,

just like heaven's coming down

Verse 2:

So strange are the ways

they all have changed,

still life it stays the same.

A break from the past

could make it last, oh,

maybe just a little longer.

There's nothing to prove...

A snapshot from the crowd to the shore, baby...

Chorus 2:

And it feels now,

just like heaven's coming down

Your soul shakes free

as its conscience hits the ground

Bridge:

You surrender

Love under will

Rest assured baby,

You're adored

Chorus 3:

And it feels now,

just like heaven's coming down.

Your soul shakes free,

as its conscience hits the ground.

these signs, this fate,

takes the path you didn't choose.

Stay strong, keep faith,

there's a change that's coming through.

Outro:

hold on my love

hold on...
