Hey! yet another Halsey tab by me. This song came out the other day, but i heard
it for the first time today and decided to tab! This is the basic plucking
pattern she uses, so just repeat for the chords.
e|----------------x-----|
B|----------------x-----|
G|-----------x----------|
D|--------x-------------|
A|-----x----------------|
E|--R-------------------|
R is the root note of the chord (either on the E or A string) and you pluck every
string leading up to B, where you stop and wait to pluck B and e together before
you transition to the next chord. if you listen to the original song below, you can
hear this guitar pattern in the background. if you're confused or want to hear it more
clearly, i will link below my cover of it so you can hear how i plucked it.
***NOTE***
TO PLAY IT HOW ASHLEY (HALSEY) PLAYS IT IN THE RECORDING, YOU MUST USE BARRE CHORDS

[Verse 1]
F#m
I found god
A
I found him in a lover
D
When his hair falls in his face
Bm *C#m
And his hands so cold they shake
F#m
I found the devil
A
I found him in a lover
D
And his lips like tangerines
Bm *C#m
In his color coded speak

Now we're lost somewhere in outer space
A
In a hotel room where demons play
D
They run around beneath our feet

We roll around beneath these sheets

I've got a lover
A love like religion

I'm such a fool for sacrifice

[Verse 2]
F#m
I found a martyr
A
He told me that I'd never
D
With his educated eyes
Bm *C#m
And his head between my thighs

I found a savior
A
I don't think he remembers
D
Cause he's off to pay his crimes
Bm *C#m
And he's got no time for mine
[Pre-Chorus]
