Comment for any corrections and please rate
The chords I wrote here are for the acoustic version of
Fatal Hesitation of the album Home,
Though you can also play them along with the original.
Am F
The cafe's are all deserted
C G F
The streets are wet again
Am
There's nothing quite like
F C G
An out of season holiday town in the rain
Am
When the tourists go
F
And the cold winds blow
C G F
And my girl is on a plane
Dm
Home
Am F
I'm never gonna love another
C F
The way I have loved you
Am F
It's taken me a little time to discover it
C G
Now I know it's true
F G
But fatal hesitation
C G F
Made me miss the show
Am C Dm Em F G
Ooooooh, Romeo is standing in the rain
C Dm Em F G
And I know that I have let her slip away
Am G F C F Am G F C G
Fatal hesitation, fatal hesitation
Am F
I saw you again this morning
C G F
Walking down the beach
Am F
And though you are a thousand miles away
C G
You were only just out of reach
F G
When I got up close and I saw her face
C G F
I knew it couldn't be so
Am C Dm Em F G
No, nooooooo, Romeo is standing in the rain
C Dm Em F G
And I wish I know, I have let her slip away
Am G F C F Am G F Ab
Fatal hesitation, fatal hesitation oh
Bb C
I'm gonna get on my boat and sail away
Am G F C F
Am G F C G
F C F Dm
Am C Dm Em F G
Ooooooh, Romeo is standing in the rain
C Dm Em F G
And I know that I have let her slip away
C Dm Em F G C Dm Em F G
Fatal hesitation, fatal hesitation
C Dm Em F G
C Dm Em
F G C
I'm gonna read a little Shakespeare
Dm Em
And get her outta my head
F G C Dm Em
It doesn't matter anymore
F G C
Gonna miss her just a little bit
Dm Em F G C Dm Em F G C
Just a little bit
