Want You Gone Tabs

(ver. 1)
Portal
Jonathan Coulton

Tuning: Standard


This is the song in the ending credits to Portal 2. I don't like staggering
the words, but it's tough to fit them in there. I think the chorus chords
might be power chords, but either way sounds pretty good. Also, there's a
descending bassline from A to E at the end. Hope you enjoy it!

                   It's always such a pleasure              kill me twice?

   Oh how we laughed and laughed        Under the circumstances I've been
