Hey, so, this is my version of "The boy who lived" by Ella Martine.
I don't know which chords she used originally, those are just the chords I use playing the song.
I think they sound good and quite fitting :)
Enjoy!


[Intro]
[hummed Harry Potter theme tune]

A#m                   F              A#m
hm-hm-hm-hm-hm-hm-hmm hm-hm-hm-hm-hm-hmm


[Verse 1]
A#m
Tucked under a staircase and hidden away
F#m
No knowledge of power accompanied by fame
A#m                        F                   A#m
A lightning bolt scar from he-who-shall-not-be-named
A#m
Broken black glasses, a handful of coins
F#m
Determined to prove being good is a choice
A#m                        F                    A#m
His hair dark as tar but the light in his heart remains


[Chorus]
F#m               A#m
The boy who lived only to die
F#m              A#m
Come to give his final fight
F#m          A#m
Nobody there by his side
F#m        A#m   F
To save him this time
F#m                 A#m
The boy who cheated death with love
F#m                 A#m
That stays embedded in his blood
F#m                  A#m
He's done it once is that enough
      F             F#m     A#m
Has the boy who lived given up


[Interlude]
[hummed Harry Potter theme tune]

A#m                   F              A#m
hm-hm-hm-hm-hm-hm-hmm hm-hm-hm-hm-hm-hmm


[Verse 2]
A#m
Disguised by the dark, wielding the kiss of death
F#m
Ordered to take away his final breath
A#m                         F                      A#m
The past is no match, for the pain that still lies ahead
A#m
Three deathly hallows need not be possessed
F#m
For deals with the grim lead to consequences
A#m                F                      A#m
Cloaking the truth won't make it hurt any less


[Chorus]
F#m               A#m
The boy who lived only to die
F#m              A#m
Come to give his final fight
F#m          A#m
Nobody there by his side
F#m        A#m   F
To save him this time
F#m                 A#m
The boy who cheated death with love
F#m                 A#m
That stays embedded in his blood
F#m                       A#m
He's done it once is that enough
      F             F#m     A#m
Has the boy who lived given up


[Outro]
[hummed Harry Potter theme tune]

A#m                   F              A#m
hm-hm-hm-hm-hm-hm-hmm hm-hm-hm-hm-hm-hmm
