The fills at the end of every 2nd line are a basic (and pretty common) D riff thus:
Dsus2 D Dsus4 D Dsus2 D. The riff timings can be a little tricky when singing along, but
listen to the song and it will make sense.
The E A A at the end of the 3rd line of the chorus are 3 distinct "single hit" chords.
Again, listen and it will make sense.
For those who didn't know, this song is the 2nd part of the story that was started in
"Don't You Want Me". Enjoy!
[D] When he s[Dsus2]aw her[D] getting of the bus[A][D]
D riff
It seemed to wipe away the years
[D] Her face was older[Dsus2], just[D] a little rough[A][D]
D riff
But her eyes were still so clear
[D] He drank his coffee[Dsus2] and h[D]e hurried out[A][D]
D riff
Across before she walked away
[D] Then he approached[Dsus2] her l[D]ike a little child[A][D]
D riff
Too scared for what he had to say
D D riff
"Hello, Louise,
G D riff
Remember me?
D D riff
Now should we part
E E A A (palm mute or let it ring, whatever works)
Or stay awhile?
(No Chord)
As if we were still lovers"
D Dsus2 D A D D riff x2
[D] She took a momen[Dsus2]t just[D] to recognise[A][D]
D riff
The man she'd known so well before
[D] And as he starte[Dsus2]d to a[D]pologise[A][D]
D riff
Lose any bitterness she bore
[D] She gently put h[Dsus2]er fin[D]ger on his lips[A][D]
D riff
To let him know she understood
[D] And with her suit[Dsus2] case [D]standing on the floor[A][D]
D riff
Embraced him like a lover would
D D riff
He told Louise
G D riff
"You look so good
D D riff
It's just you see
You make me[E] feel[E][A][A]
(No Chord)
As if we were still lovers"
Solo with the verse chord sequence
(Spoken over the verse chord sequence)
It's not always true that time heals all wounds.
There are wounds that you don't wanna heal,
the memories of something really good,
something truly real, that you never found again.
(As if we were still lovers)
[D] And though they talked [Dsus2]for ju[D]st a little time[A][D]
D riff
Before she said she had to go
[D] He saw the meeti[Dsus2]ng as [D]a tiny sign[A][D]
D riff
That told him all he had to know
D D riff
And so Louise
G D riff
Waved from the bus
D D riff
And as she left
She gave that [E]smile[E][A][A]
(No Chord)
As if they were still lovers
