Puritan by Widowspeak
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Opening track from the band's 2011 self titled debut. Couldn't make out all the lyrics,
but I tried to write down what I could. I didn't bother tabbing some of the lead solo
stuff in the middle of the song, but these chords are correct.
Tuning: Standard
NOTE: E is the only chord in the song that is played open; the rest are all barre
chords, as indicated.

Four hour drive
Strange world outside
Shattered to see
The sun go down
[B11] [A]
e|--7--- --5----|
B|--7--- --5----|
G|--8--- --6----|
D|--9--- --7----|
A|--9--- --7----|
E|--7--- --5----|
[B11]Don't know [A]ourselves
[B11]In this [A]hollow town
Then play this for the verses:
E (open) followed by A
[E] [E] [E] [E] [E] [E] [E] [/] [AA]
You can also play this over the top of these chords if you have two guitarists:
e|---------------------------------------|
B|---------------------------------------|
G|---------------------------------------|
D|---9-9-9-9-9-9-------------------------|
A|------------------12-12-12-12-12-12----|
E|---------------------------------------|
[E]Sometime in the written hour (?)
[A]Puritans had all the power
[E]Show them how their eyes were blue
[A]Tell me I'll stay with you
[B11]Always [A]waiting
[B11]And you're [A]fading, fading out
[E]So I looked my Sunday best
[A]Still inside a (?) dress
[E]Tall, dark ... (?)
[A]Like the time they stood (?)
[B11]I was [A]looking
[B11]Puritans [A]watching
[B11]I, I was [A]watching, watching out
Resume E / A progression and end the song on the E chord.
