Notes: The Dm chord in the intro/Chorus is only strummed for one beat, then immedately you play the Dsus4 chord The G in the intro/Chorus is stummed for two beats, then G7 for one, then you play riff directly into the Dm and the Dsus4 All that together is the intro/Chorus Looks like this:

The riff is followed immediately by a Dm You don't have to play the riff at all if you don't want, you can just strum another G7 chord, but it will sound more like David's piano if you at least play the riff a few times Plus your index finger is already on the F if from fretting the G7, and if you fret the D with your ring finger, the riff sets your fingers up for the Dm I tried to space the position of the chords to go with the lyrics Play along with the song, you should be able to hear the changes Intro/Chorus x2 Dm Dsus4 G G7 riff Dm Dsus4 Meet me on the other side G G7 riff Dm Dsus4 Meet me on the other side G G7 riff Dm Dsus4 I'll see you on the other side G G7 riff F See you on the other side F C Honey now if I'm honest Dm I still don't know what love is G A Another mirage folds into the haze of time recalled Dm And now the floodgates cannot hold C Bb All my sorrow all my rage F G Dm Dsus4 A teardrop falls on every page G G7 riff Dm Dsus4 Meet me on the other side G G7 riff F Meet me on the other side F C Maybe I oughta mention Dm It was never my intention G To harm you or your kin A Are you so scared to look within Dm The ghosts are crawling on our skin C Bb We may race and we may run F G We'll not undo what has been done E Dm Dsus4 Or change the moment when it's gone Intro/Chorus x2 Dm Dsus4 G G7 riff Dm Dsus4 Meet me on the other side G G7 riff Dm Dsus4 Meet me on the other side G G7 riff Dm Dsus4 I'll see you on the other side G G7 riff F I'll see you on the other side F C I know it would be outrageous Dm To come on all courageous G And offer you my hand A To pull you up on to dry land Dm When all I got is sinking sand C Bb The trick ain't worth the time it buys F G I'm sick of hearing my own lies E Dm Dsus4 And love's a raven when it flies G G7 riff Dm Dsus4 Meet me on the other side G G7 riff Dm Dsus4 Meet me on the other side G G7 riff Dm Dsus4 I'll see you on the other side G G7 riff F I'll see you on the other side F C Honey now if I'm honest A Dm I still don't know what love is
