full credit to the other tab for this one (version 1), all the hard work was done by them.
I'm just doing the full tab for the picking pattern to help others wanting to learn
please note that this is a basic structure of the song, not the
100% accurate note-for-note correct version
low high
Tune top & bottom string down to D so it's this: D A D G B D
top bottom
CHORDS USED (im not sure of correct names):
[D] [A] [Bm] [G]
INTRO:
^ ^
this should be an upstrum, and if you listen to the song you can hear
this chord being strumed lightly to lead into the next progression.
VERSE:
[D] [A] [Bm]
..hold your truth so purely and swerve not..
[A] [G] [Bm] [A]
..through the minds of men this lie is dead..
[D] [A] [Bm]
..cup of yours tastes holy but a brush with the
[A] [G] [Bm] [A]
..devil can clear your mind and strengthen your spine
PRE-CHORUS (payed the same as the intro):
..fingers tap into what we were once
& im worried that i blew my only chance..
CHORUS (listen to the song for strumming patterns):
[G]Whispers in the [D]dark, steal a [A]kiss and you'll break a [D]heart
Pick up your [G]clothes and curl your [D]toes, learn your [A]lesson, leave me [D]whole
Spare my [G]shins for the [D]ark, I was too [A]slow to [D]depart
I'm a [G]cad but I'm not a [D]fraud, I'd set [A]out to serve the [D]lord
[A]...And my [D]heart, was [G]colder when you'd [D]gone
[A]...And I lost my [D]head, but [G]found the one that I [D]loved
(chords shown below for last line of chorus)
Under the suuuuuun, under the suuuuuuuuuuuuun..
after that line you can hear the last D chord being played around with,
then it goes back to the pre-chorus but it's strummed & palm-muted
with a slight variation of chords. Once again listen for the strumming
pattern, this is just a basic structure:
..fingers tap into what we were once
& im worried that i blew my only chance..
..fingers tap into what we were once
& im worried that i blew my only chance..
(woo)
G D A D (x2) (played as chorus chords/timing)
CHORUS:
[A]...And my [D]heart, was [G]colder when you'd [D]gone
[A]...And I lost my [D]head, lets[G] live while we are yo[D]ung
(chords shown below for last line of chorus)
While we are yoouung, while we are youuunnngggg..
while we are yooouuunnngggg..

end on a single strum of the D chord
