DEPECHE MODE - Fragile Tension
The real tuning is down half step (Eb G# Db F# Bb Eb)
Intro
G#m x8
(verse)
G#mB
There's a fragile tension
EA#m
That's keeping us going
G#mB
It may not last forever
EA#m
But oh, when it's flowing
(chorus)
EbmG#mEb
There's something magical in the air
Fill: C# E
EbmG#mEb
Something so tragic we have to care
Fill: C# E
(verse)
G#mB
There's a strange obsession
EA#m
That's drawing us nearer
G#mB
We don't understand it
EA#m
It never gets clearer
(chorus)
EbmG#mEb
There's something mystical in our genes
Fill: C# E
EbmG#mEb
So simplistic it kicks and screams
Fill: C# E
(bridge)
GmF#
Oh when we're teetering
EEb
On the edge of collapse
C#BBb
Nothing can keep us down

(verse)
G#mB
There's a dizzying feeling
EA#m
That's keeping us flying
G#mB
Through glittering gardens
A#m
Without even trying
(chorus)
EbmG#mEb
There's something radical in our hands
Fill: C# E
EbmG#mEb
Nothing logical to our plans
Fill: C# E
