Can’t believe this song hasn’t been tabbed before! It’s a truly amazing song, one of
which I frequently cover. This is my first tab I’ve banged up on here - pretty big
stuff - haha, so dunno if it’s completely accurate, but it sounds fine to sing to and
with the recording:
Tom Mcrae - Bloodless
(1st verse: hit strings once per chord – let ring)
G C
This train don’t stop, at the stations of the cross
G C
No reasons left to believe
G C
You try to stay awake, gave yourself a caffeine headache
G C…(let ring)
To hide the taste of sleep
(2nd verse: strum every chord. Listen to recording for exact rhythm)
G C
In choosing to forget you cut away the safety net,
G C
that holds your heart, holds your heart
G C
And you go in search of youth, touching up your empire roots
G C
But these days, we don’t know how to march
(pre-chorus: strong, single strum for each chord – let ring)
Am C
Satisfied with a knife in your spine
D (strum out)
You’re bloodless
(Chorus: strum away)
G C G
So tell me again what am I feeling you know me so well
C G C
So what am I feeling and how can you tell, I’ve got a feeling
D (strum few times, then let ring)
You don’t know
We think that we’re the ones
We’re the bright unconquered suns
G C
Wait a while, we’ll watch the light grow stale
G
And we smell so very clean
C
But we’re the oil in this machine
G
And this machine
C
This machine is going wrong
Am C
So choose your sides when it comes to the fight
D
You’re bloodless
(Chorus)
G C G
So tell me again what am I feeling you know me so well
C G C
So what am I feeling and how can you tell, I’ve got a feeling
D
You don’t know
(Bridge)
Am C D
You choose your side but in the fight I see your blood run white,
D
Your blood run white
Am C D (let ring)
And I- ve seen it all before…
G
…and I see it again
G C G
So tell me again what am I feeling you know me so well
C G C
So what am I feeling and how can you tell, I’ve got a feeling
D
You don’t know
G C G
So tell me again what am I feeling you know me so well
C G C
So what am I feeling and how can you tell, I’ve got a feeling
D
You don’t know
G C G
So tell me again what am I feeling you know me so well
C G C
So what am I feeling and how can you tell, I’ve got a feeling
G (let ring)
You don’t know
Hope it helps.
