Amy Macdonald - "Poison Prince"
-----------------------------------------
This is how this great song is played without a capo.
Its really simple, there are just 4 chords:
h Cis Fis F (Gis)
e|--------6-------------4--------------2--------------1------------(4)-------|
B|--------6-------------4--------------2--------------1------------(4)-------|
G|--------6-------------6--------------3--------------2------------(5)-------|
D|--------8-------------6--------------4--------------3------------(6)-------|
A|--------8-------------6--------------4--------------3------------(6)-------|
E|--------6-------------4--------------2--------------1------------(4)-------|
Instead of the Cis chord, wich is a bit difficult to play,
you can also use the Gis chord. That sounds quite similar.
------------------------------------------------
Here is the way playing the chords:
h
A poetic genius,
[Cis]Its something I don?t see,
[Fis]Why would a genius be
[F]trippin' on me?
h
And there?s looking and another ,
[Cis]Why he can?t see is that
[Fis]I?m looking through his eyes,
[F]So many lies behind his eyes.
h
and tell me stories from your past,
[Cis]And sing me songs you wrote before.
[Fis]I tell you this my Poison Prince,
[F]You?ll soon be knocking on Heaven?s door.
h
Some kind of Poison Prince,
[Cis]With your eyes in a daze.
[Fis]Some kind of Poison Prince,
[F]Your life is like a maze.
h
And what we all want
[Cis]and what we all crave,
[Fis]Is an upbeat song,
[F]So we can dance, the night away.
h
We said life was easy,
[Cis]We said life was fair,
[Fis]We said nobody gived a dam,
[F]And nobody even cared.
h
The way you?re acting now,
[Cis]Like you left that all behind.
[Fis]You?ve given up, You?ve given in,
[F]And I?m a sucker of that slime.
h
Some kind of Poison Prince,
[Cis]With your eyes in a daze.
[Fis]Some kind of Poison Prince,
[F]Your life is like a maze.
h
And what we all want
[Cis]and what we all crave,
[Fis]Is an upbeat song ,
[F]So that we can dance, the night away.
h
Some kind of Poison Prince,
[Cis]With your eyes in a daze.
[Fis]Some kind of Poison Prince,
[F]Your life is like a maze.
h
And what we all want
[Cis]and what we all crave,
[Fis]Is an upbeat song ,
[F]So that we can dance, the night away.

So I think this is the original way playing this song (without a capo).
I hope you enjoy it.
