Hi there:) Another great song from Taylor
and a very easy one to play! Perfect for
beginners:) Let me know what ya think...
Have fun!!!
***UPDATE- For the Acoustic version just play
this without the capo. These chords, no capo.***
Standard Tuning w/
Capo on 2
(The intro is drums for 7 beats, on the 8th beat you can start palm
muting the D and then the G along with the drums until about 23 secs
when the e. guitar comes in and then regular strums work continuing
with the D and G )
[Intro]
D G
[Verse 1]
D
I'm walking fast through the traffic lights
Busy streets and busy lives
G
And all we know, is touch and go
D
We are alone with our changing minds
We fall in love 'til it hurts or bleeds
G
Or fades in time
[Pre-Chorus]
D G
And I never (never), saw you coming
D G
And I'll never, be the same
D G
[Verse 2]
D
You come around and the armor falls
Pierce the room like a cannonball
G
Now all we know... is don't let go
D
We are alone just you and me
Up in your room, and our slates are clean
G
Just twin fire signs, four blue eyes
D
So you were never a saint
And I've loved in shades of wrong
We learned to live with the pain
Mosaic broken hearts
G
But this love is brave and wild
[Chorus]
D G
And I never (never), saw you coming
D G
And I'll never, be the same
D*-once
This is a state of grace
G*
This is the worthwhile fight
Em
Love is a ruthless game
D G
Unless you play it good and right
D
These are the hands of fate
G
You're my Achilles heel
Em
This is the golden age of something
D G-once
Good and right and real
[Bridge]
D G
And I never (never), saw you coming
D G
And I'll never, be the same
D G
I never (never), saw you coming
D G
And I'll never, be the same
D*-once
This is a state of grace
G*
This is the worthwhile fight
Em*
Love is a ruthless game
D* G*
Unless you play it good and right
