Marvellous song by a wonderfully talented songwriter. Enjoy!
Standard Tuning
All chords are barre chords
Intro: , , , , , ,
Sink in my skin, like a tattoo,
But pictures can fade,
Like a flower locked in a dark room,
Lie on our backs, talk till we’re new,
But voices will wake us, burst into the bedroom,
I fall in a dive,
Like a kingfisher flies
I gave you, into the wrong hands,
(m)
The wrong hands, you were right to throw your head up,
Gave you into the wrong hands,
Oh my careless heart, oh my careless heart
Carry my past, caught like a gun,
And sharp, shoot the stars down,
Oh now look what I’ve done.
I fall in a dive,
Like a kingfisher flies
I gave you, into the wrong hands,
(m)
The wrong hands, you were right to throw your head up,
Gave you into the wrong hands,
Oh my careless heart, oh my careless heart
, , , , , ,
Send me a wreathe, then I’ll be gone,
For nothing can live when you’re poisoning your first love,
I fall in a dive,
Like a kingfisher flies
I gave you, into the wrong hands,
(m)
The wrong hands, you were right to throw your head up,
Gave you into the wrong hands,
Oh my careless heart, oh my careless heart
I gave you, into the wrong hands,
(m)
The wrong hands, you were right to throw your head up,
Gave you into the wrong hands,
Oh my careless heart, oh my careless heart
Oh my careless heart.
For a first tab I don't think I've done too bad. The only queries I would I have myself
about the intro and that middle 8; those chords dont sound EXACTLY right, but if you
the root note and the G, B and E strings it should sound okay. If anyone has any
Cheers xo
