Intro C6 x2 Am F C6
C6
And it starts sometime around midnight
Am F C6
Or at least that's when you lose yourself for a minute or two
C6
As you stand under the bar lights
Am F C6
While the band plays some song, about forgetting yourself for a while
Am F C6
And the piano's this melancholy soundtrack for her smile
Am Pause!!! F
That white dress she's wearing, you haven't seen her for a while
C6
But you know, that she's watching
Am F C6
She's laughing, she's turning. She's holding her tonic like a cross
Am F C6
The room's suddenly spinning, as she walks up and asks how you are
Am F C6
So you can smell her perfume, you can see her lying naked in your arms
C6
And so there's a change in your emotions
Am F C6
When all these memories come rushing, like feral waves to your mind
Am F C6
Of curl of your bodies, like two perfect circles entwined
Am F C6
So you feel hopeless and homeless, and lost in the haze of the wine
C6
Then she leaves with some one you don't know
Am F C6
But she makes sure you saw her, she looks right at you and bolts
Am F C6
As she walks out the door, your blood boiling, your stomach in ropes
Am Pause!!! F
Oh and when your friends say, "what is it you look like you've seen a ghost"
Bridge (strong strumming) C6 .... F G Am .... F G C6
C6
Then you walk under the streetlights
Am F C6
And you're too drunk to notice, that everyone is staring at you
Am F C6
You just don't care what you look like, the world is falling around you
Am
you just have to see her
F
you just have to see her
Am
you just have to see her
F
you just have to see her
Am
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.
