[Verse 1]
F#m       D
I had a vision of you,
 E              F#m
 and just like that
       D
I was left to live without
 A    D                   A
 it, left to live without it
F#m        D
I found a version of love,
E              F#m
 and just like that
       D
I was left to live without
 A    D                   A
 it, left to live without it

[Pre-Chorus]
Bm                 E       F#m7
Waitin' for this storm to pass
Bm                 E       F#m7
Waitin' on this side of the glass
      G         D
But I see my reflection in you
G            D         Bm
See your reflection in me
             G
How could it be?
              D    A
How could it be?

           G                D  A
There is somethin' between us

Between me and you
           G           F#m7
There is somethin' between us

I see right through

I see right through

[Verse 2]

       D                   A
I was left to live without it,
  D                   A
 left to live without it
F#m       D            E
I had a person I loved, and
           F#m
just like that
       D                   A
I was left to live without it,

left to live without it

Bm                 E
Waitin' for this storm
     F#m7
to pass

Waitin' on this side
       F#m7
of the glass
      G         D
But I see my reflection in you
G            D         Bm
See your reflection in me
             G
How could it be?
              D    A

How to play The Glass: key, chords and progression

These are The Glass chords by Foo Fighters on Piano, Ukulele, Guitar, and Keyboard.

The Glass by Foo Fighters is built around D major (two sharps: F♯, C♯), with 7 chords in all: F#m, D, E, A, Bm, F#m7 and G.

The progression the song keeps returning to is F#m – D – E – F#m (iii – I – II – iii in D major). In solfa, that is mi – doh – reh – mi. Learn these 4 changes first and most of the song falls into place.

Easier on guitar: put a capo on the 2nd fret and play the shapes Em, C, D, G, Am, Em7, F (86% of the chords become easy open shapes, against 57% without a capo). It sounds exactly the same.
