Girls Aloud - Can't Speak French (Tangled Up)
Hi,
This is my first tab ever so forgive me if there are any mistakes or the layout isn't
good! I'm a massive Girls Aloud fan, and I think this is a really great song. It's pretty
as it just repeats itself, but it sounds great. As I said this is my first tab and I
it all out by ear so PLEASE correct me or send me any feedback/questions. I reckon the
can also be played as a C#m and it sounds basically the same. Enjoy!

VERSE 1
I [C#m7]wait underneath the covers
All [F#m7]night beside you
And w[A]ho could ever question any crying I[C#sus2] do[C#7]
My [C#m7]heavy heart is beating out a rhythm
All [F#m7]night beside me
And I f[A]all a little harder everytime that I[C#sus2] do[C#7]
PRE-CHORUS (with full riff - part 1 once followed by part 2 once)
[C#m7] Watch me living it up, you totally[F#m7]
Got me stuck in a rut, you're made for me[A]
How'm gonna step up, and say to you[C#sus2]
I get the feeling boy I [C#7]want you, want you[C#m7]
Now conversation is tough because you're totally[F#m7]
Walking round all the stuff you wanna say to me[A]
Words are never enough
Oh baby baby you [C#sus2]turn my dust to [C#7]gold

I can't s[C#m7]peak French
So I'll let the funky music do the t[F#m7]alking talking now, oh

So I'll let the funky music do the [C#sus2]talking, [C#7]oh oh oh
I can't s[C#m7]peak French
So I'll let the funky music do the t[F#m7]alking talking now, oh
I can't sp[A]eak French
So I'll let the funky music do the [C#sus2]talking, [C#7]oh oh oh
VERSE 2 (with full riff - part 1 once followed by part 2 once)
[C#m7] I gotta let you know[F#m7]
I wanna give in to my temptation[A]
And let my feelings show[C#sus2]
I gotta let you [C#7]know[C#m7]
I gotta let you know[F#m7]
I wanna give in to my temptation[A]
