Banner Lights

This is an acoustical rendition of "Banner" by LIGHTS I made by ear. I don't think
it is 100% in accordance to the album version, but the vocals and chords all sound

Chords used:
G 320003
G* 320033

Verse 1
[G]Maybe it's bricks and [G]mortar now
[C]Whether or not they [C]run it down
[G]I don't want any[G]thing
To shake that [C]shape away[C]
[G]No one told us which [G]way to come
[C]Nobody mapped ob[C]livion
[G]So I go growing[G] roses in a [C]disarray
Refrain 1
Just like [Cmaj7]most falling head[Esus4] in
Til my [Cmaj7]ghost fills the b[Esus4]ed in
Chorus 1
So lift it [Em9]up like a[C] banner
Hold it [G]up over [D]me
If this [Em]war is never [C]ending
I take this [D]love
G* G*
Down with me
C* C*
Like a banner
G* G* C* C*
Verse 2
[G]I don't need fate to [G]give it time
It [C]doesn't take pain to [C]change your mind
No [G]weapon can [G]sever the soul from [C]me[C]
Refrain 2
Not the [Cmaj7]sorceress not the [Esus4]money
All my [Cmaj7]cleverness all my c[Esus4]unning
Chorus 2
So lift it [Em9]up like a[C] banner
Hold it [G]up over [D]me
If this [Em]war is never [C]ending
I take this [D]love
G* G*
Down with me
C* C*
Like a banner
G* G* C* C*
Bridge(2x)
[Cmaj7]It's around me [Cmaj7]in my surroundings
[Esus4]It counts me when [Esus4]it starts the counting
[Cmaj7]In the chaos [Cmaj7]there is a standard
[Esus4]I'm carrying [Esus4]it like a banner
Chorus 3 (final)
So lift it [(Em9)]up like a[C] banner
Hold it [G]up over [D]me
If this [Em]war is never [C]ending
I take this [D]love
G*
Down with me
