xChemical Courage - Jack Savoretti Hi I'm no expert at these things but I liked the song so I had a go:-) Ive tried to simplify it to make it easier to write down and read. Any amendments please send them through to [email protected] thanks!! capo 2nd fret Finger pick all the way through, difficult to write it down but not that bad to play. Start to strum the chords after the 2nd chorus intro - finger pick G shape (3-x-0-0-3-0)----------| G shape slide to (8-7-0-0-8-0)-| G shape slide to (7-6-0-0-7-0)-| G shape slide to (5-4-0-0-5-0)-| verse G F# (not sure what chord this is but looks like 2-4-4-2-3-2) em am G chorus G (C or Asus) G Em Am C G [Verse 1] Tonight has been long I've smoked every breath Trying to feel so alive Tempting death I've smiled at the angels But I fear where they live I've taken too much With nothing to give [Chorus] My chemical courage Has come to an end The night once my lover Is no longer my friend [Verse 2] Well tonignt has gone wrong Coz I said what I said I've been left all alone To lie in my bed Thinking I'm just a fake But nothing is real And if I'm asking to be saved I must learn how to kneel [Chorus] Now my chemical courage Has come to an end The night once my lover Is no longer a friend Playing tricks on my eyes Shining light on my tears Pray for a new day To hide all my fears G C Am G Yea-a-a-ah yeah-ah wo-o-o-oh woah And I, I can't find a way Back to where I felt safe [Chorus] Now my chemical courage Has come to an end The night once my lover Is no longer my friend Playing tricks on my eyes Shining light on my tears Pray for a new day To hide all my fears To hide all my fears To hide all my fears intro to finish
