                         SOUR TIMES - The Civil Wars
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------


Tuning: Standard CAPO III


This song is a cover they've been doing as of lately (i.e. 2011)
It is a cover of a Portishead song. 

These are odd chords revolving around Am so I'm going to name them myself!

Intro: Am  Am  Am7/G# Am7/G  Am/E    x2  (palm-muted)

Am            Am
To pretend no one can find
   Am7/G#      Am7/G     Am/E
The fallacies of morning rose
Am                Am
Forbidden fruit, hidden eyes
 Am7/G#    Am7/G       Am/E 
Courtesies that I despise in me
Am            Am        Am7/G# Am7/G  Am/E
  Take a ride, take a shot now

Dm     C         B7
'Cause nobody loves me
     Dm   C   B7
It's true
             Am
Not like you do


REPEAT INTRO


Am              Am
Covered by the blind belief
     Am7/G#    Am7/G     Am/E
That fantasies of sinful screens
Am              Am
Bear the facts, assume the dye
 Am7/G#        Am7/G     Am/E  Am
End the vows, no need to lie,   enjoy
Am          Am7/G# Am7/G Am/E
  Take a ride, take a shot now



Dm     C         B7
'Cause nobody loves me
     Dm   C   B7
It's true
             Am
Not like you do


REPEAT INTRO


Am        Am7/G#  Am7/G  Am/E
Who am I, what    and     why?
       Am             Am     Am7/G#  Am7/G  Am/E   Am
'Cause all I have left is my memories  of  yesterday
Am       Am7/G#  Am7/G  Am/E
Oooh  these     sour times


Dm     C         B7
'Cause nobody loves me
     Dm   C   B7
It's true
             Am
Not like you do


REPEAT INTRO

Am             Am
After time the bitter taste
    Am7/G#   Am7/G     Am/E
Of innocence, decent or race
Am               Am
Scattered seeds, buried lives
Am7/G#        Am7/G  Am/E    Am
Mysteries of our disguise revolve
Am7/G#      Am7/G  Am/E
Circumstance will decide ....


Dm     C         B7
'Cause nobody loves me
     Dm   C   B7
It's true
             Dm 
Not like you do

        C         B7
'Cause nobody loves me
     Dm   C   B7
It's true
           Dm
Not like you
C           B7
Nobody loves.. me
      Dm  C  B7
It's true

Not, like, you.. do


REPEAT INTRO

END!!!
