[Intro]
Am  C  F  G

[Verse]
Am              C
 It seems like we
                    Dm
Like to be living dangerously
      F                G    Am
Our heart sings a temporary lie
               C
It seems like her
              Dm
Madness could be endlessly
     F              G    Am
Her love is a temporary high

[Pre-Chorus]
                            C
And you're running to the shore
                F
Howling at the waves
                 G
Howling back at you

[Chorus]
Am
 When you're ahead
 she's coming after
C
 And when you run she's running faster
F
And when she loves you better
             G
hope her love is not
             Am
A temporary high

[Verse]
               C
Your body was warm
When she was cold you
        Dm
would long for love
      F              G     Am
Her storm was a temporary light
                  C
And I guess you froze
                     Dm
When the storm blew away
her clothes
          F        G     Am
And you never got warm again

[Pre-Chorus]
                       C
Your hands as blue as ice
                         F
You reached towards the sky
                  G
Reaching back at you

[Chorus]
Am
 When you're ahead she's
 coming after
C
 And when you run she's
running faster
F
 And when she loves you
                  G
 better hope her love is not
             Am
A temporary high
C
 And when you run she's
 running faster
F
 And when she loves you
                  G
better hope her love is not
             Am
A temporary high

How to play A Temporary High: key, chords and progression

A Temporary High by Aurora sits in A minor (no sharps or flats), and you need 5 chords to play it: Am, C, F, G and Dm.

Listen for F – G – Am – C (VI – VII – i – III in A minor): the song comes back to it again and again. Once these 4 changes are comfortable, most of the song is done.

Easier on guitar: put a capo on the 5th fret and play the shapes Em, G, C, D, Am (100% of the chords become easy open shapes, against 80% without a capo). It sounds exactly the same.
