The bass notes can be tricky to fit in but keep trying.
The three basic phrases are:
when it hits 'one good night of sleep per year' play:
Gb|---11--|
The chords used (well, that i use for acoustic) are:
(Some of the names may be slightly wrong)
[Bb] [EbMaj7(1)] [Cm9] [EbMaj7(2)] [Gm7]
NOTE: If you're playing this electric/full band some of these chords you'll want to simplify.
Breakdown Guitar 2:
Verse 3 Guitar 2:
This was a pain to tab as it's quite quiet in the mix, but im 90% sure it is right.
(VERSE 1 PICKING AND FINAL CHORD)
There's a tombstone in the brush with your name on the front,
But I had no bucks to get "Here lies, they ran out of luck"
On the back of it
Sharp as a tack but in the sense that you're not smart, just a prick
And my finger on my toe,
With the sad holes of the weight on my chest
On the weight of my chest
But every treble in your voice
Stored goes in my ears
One good night of sleep per year
(VERSE 1 PICKING ENDS)
(VERSE 2)
There's a [Bb]tombstone in the brush with your name on the front,
But I had no bucks to get "Here lies, they ran out of luck[EbMaj7(1)]"
On the ba[Bb]ck of it
[Bb]Sharp as a tack but in the sense that I'm not smart, just a prick
And the fingers and the toes of all of those that show interest in m[EbMaj7(1)]e
And from where I'm [Bb]standing, l[Cm9]ooks like I'm way [Gm7]long overdue
I k[Cm9]now what you meant when you [Gm7]said,
"fk you!"
B[Cm9]reaking I've never f[Gm7]elt so cool,
And[EbMaj7(2)] now I'm tired and now I'm dead to me
