Intro G6 x2 Em C G6
G6
And it starts sometime around midnight
Em C G6
Or at least that’s when you lose yourself for a minute or two
G6
As you stand under the bar lights
Em C G6
While the band plays some song, about forgetting yourself for a while
Em C G6
And the piano's this melancholy soundtrack for her smile
Em Pause!!! C
That white dress she's wearing, you haven’t seen her for a while
G6
But you know, that she’s watching
Em C G6
She’s laughing, she’s turning. She’s holding her tonic like a cross
Em C G6
The room's suddenly spinning, as she walks up and asks how you are
Em C G6
So you can smell her perfume, you can see her lying naked in your arms
G6
And so there’s a change in your emotions
Em C G6
When all these memories come rushing, like feral waves to your mind
Em C G6
Of curl of your bodies, like two perfect circles entwined
Em C G6
So you feel hopeless and homeless, and lost in the haze of the wine
G6
Then she leaves with some one you don't know
Em C G6
But she makes sure you saw her, she looks right at you and bolts
Em C G6
As she walks out the door, your blood boiling, your stomach in ropes
Em Pause!!! C
Oh and when your friends say, "what is it you look like you’ve seen a ghost"
Bridge (strong strumming) G6 .... C D Em .... C D G6
G6
Then you walk under the streetlights
Em C G6
And you’re too drunk to notice, that everyone is staring at you
Em C G6
You just don’t care what you look like, the world is falling around you
Em
you just have to see her
C
you just have to see her
Em
you just have to see her
C
you just have to see her
Em
you just have to see her
you know that she'll break you in two.... G6 Em C
*Been on this site for a long time and this is my first time tabbing here.
woohooo! Anyhow, this is a beautiful song I tabbed from watching one of
even close to the real thing, but you can definitely add your own flair to
it (or omit entirely). Enjoy.
