CAPO ON 5TH FRET
(see here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v6ttiuzAzDf0 )
C: x32010
F: xx3210 (I don't know the exact name but it's not your ordinary F major barre
chord. If you want, however, you can play it barred)
Dm: xx0231
G: 320003
In the first verse he is plucking the chords as follows:
C: x(3)xx(10)
F: xx(3)x(10)
First bracket is the bass note and the other two strings in the second bracket are
played at the same time. Just use your thumb for the bass note and your index and
middle finger for the b and e strings. Rhythm is quite easy if you listen to him
play it in the video.
Start by playing a short Intro on C
Verse 1:
[C]Say, say anything
Your eyes tell all that you won't [F]show
You won't [C]show
[C]The record's spinning while you dance with your temporary [F]ghost
Your temporary [C]ghost
Bridge:
Fa[Dm]miliar words bid you farewell
Your [F]hands are empty and what you held
Has [Dm]left you here with
Nothing but a [G]name
But a [G]name
Verse 2:
[C]Say, say everything
I'll try to give you what you [F]need
What you [C]need
[C]Falling, so much second-guessing
It hurts to watch you [F]bleed
It hurts to watch you [C]bleed
Bridge:
Oh you [Dm]try to sing a different song
So [F]hard to know where it went wrong
The [Dm]faces change but pictures stay the [G]same
Stay the [G]same
Chorus:
[F]Hold your [C]place when the [G]words are on the wall
and [Am]you can't find your [F]fire es[C]cape
I'm [G]running for you now so [Am]don't let go
And [F]trees hang [C]low and clouds [G]suffocate the [Am]sun so you can [F]see
Put a signal in the sky for me
Short Intro on C into the next Verse
Verse 3:
[C]Don't, don't say a thing 'cause darling oh I already [F]know
I already [C]know
Yeah, [C]love is waiting this is all just a temporary [F]ghost
A temporary [C]ghost
Pre-Chorus:
Fa[Dm]miliar words will greet you well
Your [F]hands will hold more than you held
You'll [Dm]see the sun shine when you hear your [G]name
When you hear your [G]name
Chorus:
[F]Hold your [C]place when the [G]words are on the wall
and [Am]you can't find your [F]fire es[C]cape
I'm [G]running for you now so [Am]don't let go
And [F]trees hang [C]low and clouds [G]suffocate the [Am]sun so you can [F]see
Put a signal in the sky for me
(Instrumental Verse)

Final Chorus:
Oh, [F]Hold your [C]place when the [G]words are on the wall

And [F]trees hang [C]low and clouds [G]suffocate the [Am]sun so you can [F]see

Put a signal in the sky for [F]me
