[Verse 1]
                      G          Bmadd11
And you don't seem to understand
                      Em         Bmadd11
A shame you seemed an honest man
                      G            Bmadd11
And all the fears you hold so dear
                     Em          Bmadd11
Will turn to whisper in your ear
                                 G
And you know what they say might hurt you
                              Bm
And you know that it means so much
                   Em           Bm7
And you don't even feel a thing

[Chorus]
     Em7      Bm7  G
I am falling, I am fading
       Em7       Bm7  G
I have lost it all

[Verse 2]
                       G          Bmadd11
And you don't seem the lying kind
                   Em             Bmadd11
A shame then I can read your mind
                        G            Bmadd11
And all the things that I read there
                     Em            Bmadd11
Candlelit smile that we both share
                             G
And you know I don't mean to hurt you
                              Bm
But you know that it means so much
                   Em          Bm7
And you don't even feel a thing

[Chorus]
     Em7      Bm7  G            Em7
I am falling, I am fading, I am drowning
Bm7        G
Help me to breathe

     Em7      Bm7    G
I am hurting, I have lost it all
     Em7
I am losing
Bm7        G
Help me to breathe

[Break]

I am falling, I am fading, I am drowning
Bm7        G
Help me to breathe

     Em7      Bm7    G
I am hurting, I have lost it all
     Em7
I am losing
Bm7        G
Help me to breathe

Em
Hey...

     Em7      Bm7  G            Em7
I am falling, I am fading, I am drowning
Bm7        G
Help me to breathe

     Em7      Bm7    G
I am hurting, I have lost it all
     Em7
I am losing

How to play Duvet: key, chords and progression

Duvet by bôa is built around C major (no sharps or flats), with 9 chords in all: G, Bmadd11, Em, Bm, Bm7, Em7, Em7/G, Bm7/F# and Gmaj7.

The progression the song keeps returning to is Em7 – Bm7 – G – Em7 (iii7 – vii7 – V – iii7 in C major). In solfa, that is mi – te – soh – mi. Learn these 4 changes first and most of the song falls into place.

Easier on guitar: put a capo on the 7th fret and play the shapes C, Em11, Am, Em, Em7, Am7, Cmaj7 (86% of the chords become easy open shapes, against 57% without a capo). It sounds exactly the same.
