Paradise Tabs

(ver. 1)
City And Colour
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
-------------------------------------------------------------------------


Tunning: Standard


C     - x32010                  h  - hammer on
CM9   - x20010                  p  - pull-off
Am    - x02210                  /  - Slide Up
CM9/G - 320010                  \  - Slide Down
F     - x33210                  ~  - let ring
1/2 Play chord for half a note



Note  - The Strumming can be figured out by listening to the song,
        it goes something like this:

        e|--000--000--000--000----0...
        B|--111--111--111--111----1...
        G|--000--000--222--000----0...
        D|--222--000--222--000----2... (General idea)
        A|-3333-2222-0000--222-2h33...
        E|----------------3333-----...

     - The first note you hear at the beginning of the song is by
       the rhythm guitar, not the solo one.
     - Pay close attention for timing on the solo.
     - Depending on your guitar and amp settings(tone, etc..), some notes
       on the solo might be at different locations, but they are at that
       same pitch and same octave.

     - A really neat hammer on play during the first verse goes like this
        **CM9/G******
        e|----------------0----|
        B|---------1-1----1----|
        G|---------0-0----0----|
        D|----------2-----2----|
        A|----0h3-3-3--2h33----|
        E|-0h3-----------------|

     - During the CM9/G over Paradise in the chorus, it goes like this
       for all of them, and the ones during the All Alone x4 at the end:
        e|-------|
        B|---01--|
        G|-0000--|
        D|-0000--|
        A|-2222--|
        E|-3333--|

     - During the All alone (x4) at the end, the Guitar 2 is basically
       playing the same as Guitar 1, but only one string at a time. I've
       written a guide for those who'd like some details, but most people
       can just wing it however they feel like playing.

 Please take me away now, Somewhere that don't feel so cold

Verse
C                  CM9   Am                  CM9/G
 My silhouette is fading, Past the point of safe return
C              CM9    Am                        CM9/G
 Now my body's aching, There's both ends of the candle burned
C             CM9       Am    CM9/G
 My heart is beating slow,
C              CM9      Am   CM9/G
 It's worn me to the bone
