From the album Labour Of Lust
Tuning: EADGBE
One of the most understated yet beautiful songs I have ever heard. Very difficult
to hear the guitar, even though it's the only accompaniment -it's mixed very very Low(e)!
Note - the top E string never gets played until the final ‘D’ chord...
Verse 1
-------
D A D
You make me
D G D A A/G
It's out of my hands you see
D E D/F# /G /A /B /A /G
I dont wann -a do wrong to ya
D A D
You make me
Verse 2
-------
D A D
You make me
D G D A A/G
I strive to be strong But I'm weak
D E D/F# /G /A /B /A /G
You say what use= less ex-cuse is this
D A D
You make me
Refrain
-------
F# Bm
I try with my might
F# Bm
To have and to hold
E E7
But there's something doing
A A7
That I can't cont-rol
D A D
See I have the blues my love
G
I'm just confused by love
D A D E
You make me
D A D
You make me
-----------------------------------------
I hope I've done it justice!
