My first tab
I couldn't find any chords or tabs on the song so I went ahead and figured out how to
play it with chords
Might not be completely accurate but it still sounds great to play
Standard Tuning
CAPO : 4th Fret
Not sure what the chord names are so I'll just call them by what they would be if they
were played without a capo
CHORDS:
E | Gm? | Am | C | Em | ? | P |
e|--0--|--2--|--0--|--0--|--0--|--0--|--x--|
B|--0--|--2--|--1--|--1--|--0--|--0--|--x--|
G|--1--|--2--|--2--|--0--|--0--|--2--|--x--|
D|--2--|--4--|--2--|--2--|--2--|--1--|--x--|
A|--2--|--4--|--0--|--3--|--2--|--2--|--x--|
E|--0--|--2--|--0--|--3--|--0--|--0--|--x--|
Intro:
It sounds best if you just play the low E string to imitate the bass then as the song
progresses start playing the A as well then the D and just keep adding in the next strings
until you're playing the full chords
[E] I can explain why I cannot give my heart back
[Gm] I left it with my [E]Lady Blue
[E] What was her name? She flew in, I caught her
[Gm] I was a fool to [E]let her go
She [E]goes, she goes with her hollow [Gm]bones
She [E]goes
[E] Every year she's back for the season
[Gm] I have to keep my [E]windows closed
[E] I couldn't shake what my mother warned me of
[Gm] Try to keep me safe bet[E]ween the pews
[E] I stepped away, saw that Love was outside
[Gm] She wore a name, just a [E]different one
They all say
P (Just palm mute and play along to the clapping and chains and stuff)
I'm sorry boy, you shouldn't fly with her kind
They found a way out of God's love
Bridge:
[E-Em-E-Em]
She [E]goes, shes [Em]goes with her hollow b[E]ones
Keepin it pretty is gettin [Em]pretty old
Keepin it [E]pretty is gettin [Em]pretty old
?
It's getting pretty old
[Am]Round and round we go, we go ar[C]ound
Am ?
Round and round we go, she wont stay dead
Stay down
Bridge:
Em-?-Em-?
Em ?
There's an awful lot of holes I gotta dig
Em ?
When I know you're gonna climb back up again
Stay dead, stay down
Em ?
Stay dead, stay down
Em ?
Stay across the sea, but I know where you'll be
When I look a[Am]round and round we go, we go a[C]round
Am ?(strum once then mute)
Round and round we go, she won't stay dead
Stay down
Guitar solo:
Em-?-Em-?
[Em]Lady you're a lure, dancing on the bar
?
Oh-ho, you know you are
You [Em]call em' to the door, hookem' in the jaw
?
Just for tonight, right?
But [Em]maybe when you're bored with the easy caught
?
And when I can't afford another empty touch
11/13 9/11 7/9 6/8
Maybe then we'll board our ships with a couple of crashing hearts
NOTE:This is meant to be interpreted without a capo

B|-----------------------------|
G|--13-----11-----9-----8------|

A|--11-----9------7-----6------|

[Am]Round and round we go, we go a[C]round
Am ?
Round and round we go, she stay dead
Stay down
[Am]Round and round we go, we go a[C]round
[Am]Round and round we go
She won't get [Em]out of my head
?
Stay in the ground
She won't get [Em]out of my head
?
Stay in the ground
She won't stay [Em]dead
?
She won't stay down
She won't stay [Em]dead
?
She won't stay down
She won't stay [Em]dead (She goes)
?
She won't stay down (She goes)
She won't stay[Em]
Then it ends with something like this:
e|-0-x8--2-x4--5-x4--|(Bend the 5 a little and slow the strums down)
B|-0-----0-----0-----|
