I like playing everything by ear so i sat down with the track and played these
chords through. Its spot on. just play with the strum pattern to make it fit the
song. seeing as he only finger picks on the guitar.
Chords:
G#maj - 4 6 6 5 4 4
Fm - 8 8 10 10 9 8
C#maj - 9 11 11 10 9 9
D#maj - 11 13 13 12 11 11
C#m - 4 4 6 6 5 4
(i went with the bar'd version on these chords the normal ones would work just as well)
G#maj
I could feel a hot one taking me down
For a moment, I could feel the force
Fainted to the point of tears
C#maj D#maj
And you were holding on to make a point
G#maj
What's the point?
G#maj
I'm but a clean man, stable and alone man
Make it so I won't have to try
the faces always stay the same
C#maj D#maj
So I face the fact that I'm just fine
G#maj
I said that I'm just fine
G#maj
I remember, head down,
After you had found out
Manna is a hell of a drug
And I need a little more, I think
C#maj D#maj
Because enough is never quite enough
G#maj
What's enough?
G#maj
I took it like a grown man crying on the pavement
Hoping you would show your face
But I haven't heard a thing you've said
C#maj D#maj
In at least a couple hundred days
G#maj
What'd you say?
G#maj
I was in the front seat, shaking it out
And I was asking if you felt alright
I never want to hear the truth
C#maj D#maj
I want to hear your voice, it sounded fine
G#maj
My voice, it sounded fine
G#maj
I could feel my heartbeat taking me down
And for the moment, I would sleep alright
Invading with a selfish fear
C#maj D#maj
To keep me up another restless night
G#maj
Another restless night
C#maj G#maj
The blood was dry, it was sober
Fm D#maj C#maj
The feeling of audible cracks
C#maj G#maj
And I could tell it was over
Fm D#maj C#maj
From the curtains that hung from your neck
C#maj G#maj
And I realized that then you were perfect
Fm D#maj C#maj
And my teeth ripping out of my head
C#maj G#maj
And it looked like a painting I once knew
Fm D#maj C#maj
Back when my thoughts weren't entirely intact
C#maj G#maj
To pray for what I thought were angels
Fm D#maj C#maj
Ended up being ambulances
C#maj G#maj
And the Lord showed me dreams of my daughter
Fm D#maj C#maj
She was crying inside your stomach
C#maj
And I felt love again
then just repeat G#maj, Fm, C#maj, then D#maj (just like the verses)
During the "da da da" part.
Thanks, i hope you enjoy playing this amazing song by Manchester Orchestra.
