THE OCEAN - The Bravery

Tabbed by: digitaljedwin

They play it with a capo on the first fret. This is tabbed without the capo,
so it is 1/2 step lower than it sounds on the recording. I made this tab from
watching this live recording: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5cQ-ycgyTH4
It's not perfect, but it's way closer than anything else I've found for this
song. Also, this is just guitar 1, the rhythm part. If I'm feeling ambitious
I'll take a stab at guitar 2. Finally, I've seen videos for a "Moon Version"
on youtube, this is just the acoustic version.
Hope you like it, enjoy!

These are just two variations that I heard in the performance I tabbed this
from, but I think there were other variations in other recordings, so give
a listen to a few. The pre-choruses are just half a measure thrown
Chorus:
This is just strumming |Bm|Bm|D|D|A|A|E|E|, same rhythm as the verse. I'm not
going to tab it out :P
Lyrics:
Notice the rhythm of the words have the same triplet rhythm as the strumming for
the most part. Listen to the recording for the timings, I've tried to place the
chords over the correct syllables below so you can more easily get the lyrical
timing.
[Intro x2]
[Verse x4]
Bm Bm? G D/F#?
I climbed up the mountain and looked off the edge
Em Em G G
at all of the lives that I never have led
Bm Bm? G D/F#?
there's one where I stayed with you accross the sea
Em Em G G
I wonder do you still think of me
Bm Bm? G D/F#?
I will carry your image always in my head
Em Em G G
folded and yellowed and torn at the edge
Bm Bm? G D/F#?
and I'll look u-pon it for so many years
Em Em G G
slowly I'm losing your face
[Pre-chorus1]

Bm Bm D D A A E E
Oh the ocean rolls us a-way, a-way,
Bm Bm D D A A E E
a-way the ocean rolls us a-way
[Verse x4]
Bm Bm? G D/F#?
Sixes and sevens we live on jet planes
Em Em G G
so many faces I don't know the names
Bm Bm? G D/F#
So many friends now and none of them mine
Em Em G G
forgotten as soon as we meet
Bm Bm? G D/F#
All of these moments are lost in time
Em Em G G
but you're caught in my head like a thorn on a vine
Bm Bm? G D/F#
forever torment me and I wonder why
Em Em G G
do I wish I'd never known you at all
