This is the chord progression of Ruins by First Aid Kit on Piano, Guitar, Ukulele and Keyboard.

[Intro]
F

[Verse]
F C
Today, I climbed the highest mountain I have ever climbed
F C
And I turned, to look at ruins I had left behind
F C F
And you, where were you so far removed from any truth?
Am Bb
I lost you, didn\’t I?
F
First I think I lost myself

F C
Children, then and forever locked in a memory
F C
Oh then, that mirror searching for some kind of certainty
F C F
That you, were just the same as everyone but you were wrong
Am Bb
And it hurt you, didn\’t it?
F
All you couldn\’t be

[Chorus]
F
Ruins
Bb
Ohhh
F
Ruins
Bb
Ohhh

[Verse]
F C
I tried, to hold onto some kind of dignity
F C
Too long, I waded through a vast and endless sea
F C F
Thinking, I could find the secret there within
Am Bb
But I gave up, didn\’t I?
F
Seemed the only way

F C
Ruins, all the things we built assured that they would last
F C F
Standing, on ticket stubs and written notes and photographs
C F
Where are you, and here somewhere I cannot go
Am Bb
I am sorry, I am
F
But I won\’t take it back

[Bridge]
Bb F Bb F
And in the night I hear your voice sometimes but it quickly passes
Bb F Bb C
In dreams I saw what I had thought could be some kind of answer
Bb
You try and try and try until you cannot try no more
F
Captured in our own

[Chorus]
F

Bb
