These are the chords I used, I almost always just google for a chord sheet then arrange them in a way I can learn easier, occasionally change capo for a different key.
Capo on the 3rd fret
Intro: Cmaj7 Em D 2x
Verse 1:
Cmaj7 Em D x2
When I was younger I was certain that I'd be fine without a queen
Just a king inside his castle, with an ocean in between
Cmaj7 Em D A7 Cmaj7 D
Now all I do is sit and count the miles from you to me. Oh, Calamity...
Cmaj7 Em D x2
We get older by the hour, watch the changes from afar
Keep forgetting to remember, where we've been is who we are
Cmaj7 Em D A7 Cmaj7 D
Now all I do is wonder why we ever set the scene. Oh, Calamity...
C G D X2
It's such a shame that we play strangers,
No act to change what we've become
C G D Em
Damn, it's such a shame that we built a wreck out of me,
A7 Cmaj7 D
Oh, Calamity... Oh, Calamity...
Cmaj7 Em D x2
I'll remember nights alone, and waking up to dial tones
Always found my greatest moments, in the sound of your hello's
Cmaj7 Em D A7 Cmaj7 D
Now I struggle to recall the reasons you would come to leave. Oh, Calamity...
C G D X2
It's such a shame that we play strangers,
No act to change what we've become
C G D Em
Damn, it's such a shame that we built a wreck out of me,
A7 Cmaj7 D
Oh, Calamity... Oh, Calamity...
Cmaj7 Em D
Cmaj7 Em D x2
If I catch you on the corner, will you even know it's me?
Will I look familiar to you? Do you offer me a seat?
Cmaj7 Em D A7 Cmaj7 D
Can we find a new beginning? Do you turn the other cheek? Oh, Calamity...
C *BREAK* D
It's such a shame that we play strangers,
C G D
No act to change what we've become
Damn, it's such a shame that we play strangers,
No act to change what we've become
C G D Em
Damn, it's such a shame that we built a wreck out of me,
A7 Cmaj7
Oh, Calamity... Oh, Calamity...
Cmaj7 Em D Cmaj7 G
Oh, Calamity, come back to me...
