Hi this is my first tab so please let me know if there are changes that need to be made.
Its best to listen to the live performances if you want to get the strumming pattern down as its easier to
pick it out.
Below is a basic summary of where you want ot be hitting the string for the intro. The pattern is D,D,U,U,D
then repeat. This is repeated throughout the song when he is on the E chord.
|------0------|
|------0------|
|------1-1----|
|--2-2---2-2h-|
|--2-2---2-2h-|
|--0-0---0-0--|
The B and the B7 chord is played on the 7th fret and the A is played on the 5th apart from at the end of the
chorus. Also on the C#m if you lift of and then hammer back on the second string with your ring finger this
will add a nice note that he often uses.
[Intro]
E x 4
[Verse]
E C#m
She wakes up in the morning ignoring the pain in her heart
A E B
But it's only illusion that distance could keep us apart
E C#m
She put up with my bullshit no matter how she feels inside
A E B
And I know that a beaty like her ain't easy to find
[Chorus]
B - A# - A E B E
And I'm so fickle, I'll pretend that I'm not in love
A E B
And I'm so selfish, did I waste my time on other stuff?
B - A# - A E B E
And I'm so sleepy, I've been awake for a couple of days
A E B
I'm so lonely, won't you come and take my blues away?
B7 E A
And if you wanna you can even stay
A E A E A E A E
Hey, hey, hey, hey
[Verse 2]
E C#m
I could tell by the tracks on your face that you had been crying
A E B
I said the way you're reacting you'd think that somebody's dying
E C#m
And then you grabbed on my hair, and bit on my lip till it bled
A E B
Fuck the notion of being without you, I'd rather be dead
[Chorus]
B - A# - A E B E
And I'm so fickle, I'll pretend that I'm not in love
A E B
And I'm so selfish, did I waste my time on other stuff?
B - A# - A E B E
And I'm so sleepy, I've been awake for a couple of days
A E B
I'm so lonely, won't you come and take my blues away?
B7 E A
And if you wanna you can even stay
A E A E A E A E
Hey, hey, hey, hey
