CAPO 1 **note: see below

intro, each chord here represents two beats

Em Em Em Em Em Em Em (tacit)(bass enters)
Em Em Em Em Em Em Em Em
Em Am G B Em Em Em (tacit)

(tacit)                                Em
The years are short just as the day is long
It was me on the corner
It was only me when you were looking
Am     G        B      Em
Not to kneel to anyone else, get it Pete

(tacit)                                  Em
It's been thirteen years and a couple of days
since that cab blew that light and dragged you away from us.
                        Am        G           B         Em
And I still wonder what you might think, what you might say
It's been thirteen years and a couple of days.

(tacit)                      Am
And now it's far too late to go
D                    G  G/F#  Em
 No one ever saw the show
                            Am
Blame the witches blame the saints
                            B
No one cares which ones are fake
                        Em
And we'll never need to know.

                      Am
It was far to soon to go
D                         G  G/F#  Em
 You never get to see the show
                             Am
Call all the witches and the saints
                                          B
The ones who were real, the ones who were fake
                       Em
Call them and let them know

(each chord here represents two beats)
Em Em Em Em Em Em Em (tacit)

(tacit)                 Em
Would you want to play along
Would you approve but now you're gone
                                  Am
So I'll never know the jokes, the lengths
   G                 B            Em
To which you might go, I'll never know

(tacit)                                  Em
It's been thirteen years and a couple of days
Knocked out of your boots and flown through the air
                         Am   G     B      Em
Ending conversations now I'll never get to hear

(tacit)               Am
It was far to soon to go
D                         G  G/F#  Em
 You never got to see the show
                               Am
Call all the witches, call the saints
                                          B
The ones who were real, the ones who were fake
                       Em
Call them and let them know

                             Am
And now it's far too late to go
D                                           G  G/F#  Em
 We've missed the parties, we've missed the shows
                                 Am
Dancing's for witches, guilt's for saints
                      B
Who cares more is a debate
                       Em
And I guess I'll never know

VIBES SOLO (verse progression x2)
HORN SOLO (chorus progression)

                         Am
Now it's far too late to go
D                    G  G/F#  Em
 No one ever saw the show
                          Am
Blame the witches and the saints
                            B
No one cares which ones are fake
                     Em
And we never need to know

                            Am
No, no it's far too soon to go
D                                       G   G/F#   Em
 Don't miss the parties, don't miss the shows
                               Am
Dance with witches, drink with saints
                           B
Do you care which ones are fake
                       Em
If we go we'll never know

**this song sounds in the key of f minor.  i have carpel tunnel syndrome and avoid 
playing bar chords when i can, hence the capo.
additionally, playing this song with a capo, leads to, in my opinion, better voice 
leading, and also, makes it easier to play the
chords and some of the solos simultaneously, which you can catch over at my youtube 
channel.  if you don't have a capo, ask
ultimate-guitar very nicely to transpose this up 1 half step.
