This song is very easy to learn and play. The chords below are the ones I use. The
song is just made of pretty much Cadd9, G, Em and D.
G 320033
D xx2233
Em 022033
Cadd9 x32033
* Single strum
~ Fade out
Em G
Oh, nowhere left to go
Cadd9* Em* Cadd9* Em*
Are we getting C-l-o-s-E-r? C-l-o-s-E-r?
Em G
No, all we know is "No"
Cadd9* Em* Cadd9* Em*
Nights are getting C-o-l-D-E-r, C-o-l-D-E-r
Cadd9 G
Hey, tears all fall the same
Em D
We all feel the rain
~
We can't change. . .
(I like to have the D fade out at 'change' and have a quick pause before I go to the chours)
Cadd9 G
Everywhere we go we're looking for the sun
Em D
No place to grow old, we're always on the run
Cadd9 G
They say we'll rot in Hell, but I don't think we will
Em D ~
They've branded us enough, "Outlaws of Love".
(Here, I like to fade out the D and then do another little pause before I start the next Verse)
Em G
Scars make us who we are
Cadd9* Em* Cadd9* Em*
Hearts and homes are B-r-o-k-E-n, B-r-o-k-E-n
Em G
Far, we could go so far
Cadd9* Em* Cadd9* Em*
With our minds wide o-p-e-n, o-p-e-n
Cadd9 G
Hey, tears all fall the same
Em D
We all feel the rain
We can't change...
(I like to play D till you start to play Cadd9, so I would play the D chord till 'go'
when you would start to play Cadd9)
Cadd9 G
Everywhere we go we're looking for the sun
Em D
No place to grow old, we're always on the run
Cadd9 G
They say we'll rot in Hell, but I don't think we will
Em D
They've branded us enough, "Outlaws of Love".
Cadd9 G
yeah yeah mmmmmmm
Em D ~
ooooooooohhhhhhhhhh...
(At this part he is saying Outlaws Of Love but more or less he's just humming it so I
just put the oh's and mmm's there for reference.)
(I like to fade out the D at the end of the bridge)
Cadd9* G*
Everywhere we go we're looking for the sun
Em* D*
No place to grow old, we're always on the run
Cadd9 G
They say we'll rot in Hell, but I don't think we will
Em D
They've branded us enough, "Outlaws of Love".
Cadd9 G
Outlaws of Love
Em D
Outlaws of Love
Cadd9 G
Outlaws of Love
Em* D*~
Outlaws of Love
(I like to strum the D once and then let it fade out)
Note: When I say fade out, I like to fade it out for a few seconds and then I palm mute
the strings till I play the next chord. At the last chorus when you strum the chords
once till you start playing the chords regularly again, I like to do a little
picking pattern. Here it is:
Cadd9 G Em D
e|------------3-------------3-------------3-------------3--------------------|
B|---------3-------------3-------------3-------------3-----------------------|
G|------------------------------------------------2--------------------------|
D|------2---------------------------2----------2-----------------------------|
A|---3----------------2----------2-------------------------------------------|
E|-----------------3---------------------------------------------------------|
Then after you pick the chords, you would start playing the chords again as usual.
