This is my first tab, so I'm looking for some criticism.
I like this song a lot, and I like playing the acoustic guitar, so I thought I'd try to
out the basic chords of the song for a good beginners song.
All chords are bar chords with the exception of the C chord. Sure, you COULD just use
chords, but you won't get the same high notes that you hear in the actual song. That's why
use bar chords in this.

If you have a second guitarist, the other part for the intro and most of the song would be...
Intro - C - C - G - F
[C]It's too late baby, there's no turning around
I got my [G]hands in my pocket and my head in a cloud
This is [F]how I do
When I think about you
[C]I never thought that you could break me apart
I keep a [G]sinister smile and a hole in my heart
You want to [F]get inside
Then you can get in line
But not this time
(Pre-chorus)
[G-Am] [F]Cause you caught me off guard
[G-Am] [F]Now I'm running and screaming
[C]I feel like a he[G]ro and you are my h[F]eroine
[C]I won't try to philosophize
I'll just [G]take a deep breath then I'll look in your eyes
This is [F]how I feel
And it's so surreal
[C]I got a closet filled up to the brim
With the [G]ghosts of my past and their skeletons
And I [F]don't know why
You'd even try
But I won't lie
[G-Am] [F]You caught me off guard
[G-Am] [F]Now I'm running and screaming
[C]I feel like a he[G]ro and you are my he[F]roine
Do y[C]ou know that your [G]love is the sweet[F]est sin?
[C]And I feel a weakness coming on
[G]It never felt so good to be so wrong
[F]Had my heart on lockdown
And then you turned me around
[C]And I'm feeling like a newborn child
[G]Every time I get a chance to see you smile
[F]It's not complicated
I was so jaded
[G-Am] [F]And you caught me off guard
[G-Am] [F]Now I'm running and screaming
[C]I feel like a her[G]o and you are my [F]heroine
Do [C]you know that your l[G]ove is the sweet[F]est sin?
[C](I feel like a her[G]o and you are my [F]heroine)
And I feel a weakness coming on
It never felt so good to be so wrong
Had my heart on lockdown
And then you turned me around
(Do [C]you know that your [G]love is the sweet[F]est sin?)
And I'm feeling like a newborn child
Every time I get a chance to see you smile
It's not complicated
I was so jaded
[C](I feel like a her[G]o and you are my [F]heroine)
And I feel a weakness coming on
It never felt so good to be so wrong
Had my heart on lockdown
And then you turned me around
(Do [C]you know that your [G]love is the sweet[F]est sin?)
And I'm feeling like a newborn child
Every time I get a chance to see you smile
It's not complicated
I was so jaded

I'm open to any criticism. If you have an idea to something that may be wrong, please
me.
