Pull Me Out Tab

by Bebo Norman


Okay, what you need to know to play this song is: You can play the D and 
Dsus for both the verses in many different ways. Playing normal D and Dsus 
chords will sound too high. I figured that the best way to play it is like 
this. (note also that the zero on the Dsus 55 is optional)
            
e|-----------------------------------|   Playing order: Verse 1
B|-----------------------------------|                  Prechorus
G|-----------0-0000000---------------|                  Chorus
D|-44444444--5-5555555---------------|                  Verse 2
A|-55555555--5-5555555---------------|                  Prechorus
E|-----------------------------------|                  Chorus
                                                        Bridge
                                                        Ending chorus

After the second verse just play the first prechorus and chorus.
For the bridge if you can't find a strumming pattern that sounds good 
with it I'd suggest you just strum the chords once so you can get the 
right timing at least. And then you have the prolonged ending chorus but
just follow the notes in parentheses. Also note that the whole song besides
the verses work good in power chords. When I play it, I find myself switching
between standard chords and power chords. If you're only going to use power
chords for some of it definitely use them on the quiet palm muting at the
start of the ending chorus.

INTRO:    

Verse 1:
                      
Tell me now, when does this start feeling 
                               
Like I understand everything I’m dealing with 
                                          
First I was young, now it’s all just happening
                   
And what about the way I said that 
                        
Made you turn around and shake your head 
                                      
Like I don’t even know what I’m asking for

Pre chorus:
                             
This could be all about just letting go
                                    
Or this could be all about just holding on

Chorus:
                                 
I can’t get my feet off of the ground
                               
I want to run but I don’t know how
                                                                 
Can you reach down here and pull me out, can you pull me out, yeah
                                  
I want to scream but there’s no sound
                         
I want to fly to you somehow
                                                   
Can you reach me here and pull me out, can you pull me out, yeah

                                       

Verse 2:
                     
Remember when I was young and hungry
                     
I could take it in without much money
                                            
I had nothing at all but dreams and time to kill
                     
Now I feel like I’m treading water 
                         
And I’m hardly real, I’m just trying harder 
                                         
To make my way on the earth by standing still

(Pre chorus)

(Chorus)

Bridge:
                                 
Not a moment too soon, you will be my rescue
                           
But tell me how long will it take

Ending Chorus:
(quiet palm muting)
                                 
I can’t get my feet off of the ground
                               
I want to run but I don’t know how
                                                    
Can you reach down here and pull me out, can you pull me out

(Loud again)
                               
I can’t get my feet off of the ground
                               
I want to run but I don’t know how
                                                              
Can you reach down here and pull me out, can you pull me out, yeah
                                 
I want to scream but there’s no sound
                         
I want to fly to you somehow
                                                         
Can you reach me here and pull me out, can you pull me out,
                
Can you pull me out? 
                                                            
Can you reach down and pull me out?
