Hopeless Tabs

(ver. 1)
Sister Hazel
Source: Mark and Scott Baker

The chords should be exact, in fact we had Drew from Sister Hazel review
them for us.  However, the lead guitar tabs are “our interpretation” 
because Ryan has some extensive effects overlaying the riffs and leads.
This made it fairly difficult to interpret with complete accuracy so we 
just tried to get it as close as we could.  In any event, it sounds good 

The riffs and leads are at the bottom of the song, and are only labeled 
within the flow of the song below.  Once you get the effects set, the 
riffs and solos sound very cool.

I hope you enjoy the song as much as we enjoy playing it!  …Scott

INTRO:
E5, C#sus2, A, B5,    E5, C#sus2, A, B5
(RIFF 1)

VERSE 1:
E5	
A grand empty canvas creating my life

A strange situation - there's no wrong or right
	  A                   E5
And I'm learning - along the way
E5

But pray for the strength, to see this one through
	 A                E5
And I'm tryin' 	it slips away


CHORUS:
C#m           A                        E				
A hopeless romantic but nothing feels right
                 F#                      A
A ship full of lovers that sails out of sight
                C#m                   B
I wait for the answers to fall from the… sky…

E5
(RIFF 1, RIFF 2)


VERSE 2:
E5
I'm walkin' through trees where the path has been worn

Where hearts have been ripped out trampled and torn
         A                      E5
And I'm sorry - I'm sorry once again


CHORUS:
C#m           A                        E				
A hopeless romantic but nothing feels right
                 F#                      A
A ship full of lovers that sails out of sight
                C#m                    B
I wait for the answers to fall from the… sky…
                 C#m
to fall from the sky
C#m         A                        E		
A perfect beginning but why does it end
                  F#                  A
And when will I learn, to let someone in
                C#m                    B
I wait for the answers to fall from the… sky…,  yea…

A ship full of lovers that sails out of sight
                C#m                    B
I wait for the answers to fall from the… sky… –

To fall from the sky
C#m         A                        E
