Almost Lover Tab

by A Fine Frenzy


Ok, so I saw the other tabs for this song, and they were good, but not completely 
so I decided to add my first tab ever. This is how I play it, and it sounds better than some 
out there.
The song is pretty easy, there's 7 chords for the whole song but they're all basic. 
very simple, what's harder is memorizing the chord progressions. Good luck! Hope you like it!

Standard tuning & no capo

Intro: ,  x2

          
Your fingertips across my skin
               *
The palm trees swaying in the wind
                 *
Images
            
You sang me Spanish lullabies
             *
The sweetest sadness in your eyes
       
Clever trick

                               
Well, I never want to see you unhappy
                              
I thought you'd want the same for me


 Goodbye, my almost lover

 Goodbye, my hopeless dream

 I'm trying not to think about you

 Can't you just let me be?

 So long, my luckless romance

 My back is turned on you

 Should've known you'd bring me heartache
                    
 Almost lovers always do


*            
  We walked along a crowded street
            *
You took my hand and danced with me
    *
Images
             
And when you left, you kissed my lips
                      *
You told me you would never, never forget
             *
These images, no

                                 
Well, I'd never want to see you unhappy
                              
I thought you'd want the same for me


 Goodbye, my almost lover

 Goodbye, my hopeless dream

 I'm trying not to think about you

 Can't you just let me be?

 So long, my luckless romance

 My back is turned on you

 Should've known you'd bring me heartache
                    
 Almost lovers always do


                   
 I cannot go to the ocean
                              
I cannot drive the streets at night
                           
I cannot wake up in the morning
                  
Without you on my mind
                                
Well so you're gone and I'm haunted
                        -
And I bet you are just fine


Did I make it that
  
Easy to walk right in and out
            
Of my life?


 Goodbye, my almost lover

 Goodbye, my hopeless dream

 I'm trying not to think about you

 Can't you just let me be?

 So long, my luckless romance

 My back is turned on you

 Should've known you'd bring me heartache
                    
 Almost lovers always do
