Flicker by Niall Horan
Flicker
[Intro]
Am G C F
[Verse 1]
C
When you feel your love's been taken
Em
When you know there's something missing
Am G F
In the dark, we're barely hangin' on
C
Then you rest your head upon my chest
Em
And you feel like there ain't nothing left
Am G F
So I'm afraid that what we had is gone
[Chorus]
Am
Then I think of the start
F
And it echoes a spark
C Am C F
And I remember the magic and electricity
Am
Then I look in my heart
F
There's a light in the dark
C Am C F
Still a flicker of hope that you first gave to me
Dm
And I wanna keep
Am G C F
Please don't leave
Am G C F
Please don't leave
[Verse 2]
C
When you lay there and you're sleeping
Em
Hear the patterns of your breathing
Am G F
And I tell you things you've never heard before
C
Asking questions to the ceiling
Em
Never knowing what you're thinking
Am G F
'Cause I'm afraid that what we had is gone
[Chorus]
Am
Then I think of the start
F
And it echoes a spark
C Am C F
And I remember the magic and electricity
Am
Then I look in my heart
F
There's a light in the dark
C Am C F
Still a flicker of hope that you first gave to me
Dm
And I wanna keep
Am G C F
Please don't leave
Am G C F
Please don't leave
[Bridge]
Am G C F
And I want this to pass
Am G C F
And I hope this won't last
Dm
Last too long
[Chorus]
Am
Then I think of the start
F
And it echoes a spark
C Am C F
And I remember the magic and electricity
Am
Then I look in my heart
F
There's a light in the dark
C Am C F
Still a flicker of hope that you first gave to me
Dm
And I wanna keep
Am G C F
Please don't leave
Am G C F
Please don't leave

version 3
I have simplified some and adjusted a bit for ease of play and what I think sounds best playing this solo.
Don't be turned off by the "weird" chords if you're a beginner - Gadd11 and Fmaj7 are played like a
standard open C chord, except moving your fingers on the 2nd and 3rd fret one string up/down respectively,
which makes the transitions very easy. For C/G, put an additional finger on the 1st string 3rd fret.
For the intro, the last part of the chorus and the bridge(whenever you have the Am Gadd11 C F
chord sequence), you can use the following finger picking pattern:
e|---------------------------------------------------------------------------------|
B|-0h1---------3---------5---------5-------1---------1---------1---------1---------|
