Tuning: Standard
Notes: The other chord tab is almost correct, but needed some adjustments
in the chorus.
Verse:
I work in[Bm] the dead of nigh[G]t, when the roads are quiet,
And no one is around to[Bm] track my moves[A]
Racing the yellow [Bm]lights to find the gate is open, [G]
She's waiting in the room. I ju[Bm]st step on through[A]
Pre-Chorus:
[Bm] You get i[G]n, you get done and then you get gone[Bm]
You never leave a[G] trace, or show your face, you get gone[Bm]
Should've turne[G]d around and left before the sun came up again[Bm]
But the sun came up [A]again
Verse :
( Tab from: http://www.guitartabs.cc/tabs/j/john_mayer/assassin_crd_ver_2.html )
Enter the morni[Bm]ng light to find the day is burning[G]
the curtains and the wine in a l[Bm]ittle white room[A]
Though I'm not alon[Bm]e, her head is heavy on me[G]
She's sleeping like a child[Bm]
What could I do[A]
(Pre-Chorus)
[Bm]I was a k[G]iller, was the best t[E]hey'd ever seen[A]
[Bm]I'd steal your he[G]art before you [E]ever heard a thing[A]
[Bm]I'm an assassi[G]n and I had a [E]job to do[A]
[Bm]Little did I k[G]now that girl was an assassi[E]n too[A]
Bridge:
[D]Suddenly I'm in over my h[G]ead and I can hardly breathe[Bm][A]
[D]Suddenly I'm floating over her bed [G]and I feel everything[Bm][A]
[D]Suddenly I know exactly what[G] I did, but I can not move [Bm]a thing[A]
[D]And suddenly I know exac[G]tly what I've done
[Bm]And what it's gonna mean to me, mean [A]to me
I'm gone (Solo in Bm)
(Chorus)
Vamp to fade: Bm-G-E-A
