My first tab so be gentle : ) I've been tryin to figure out this song forever, cause its a great song, and have never found a tab for it on the net so I sat down and plowed through it. email any comments suggestions or corrections to [email protected]. There is picking in there on the electric part, these are just the basic chords to the best of my ear. Figure out the picking for yerselves.
Verse 1: GDsus2 Along the edges, colors blur and seem familiar. G While you read your magazine, Dsus2 I was counting all the markers. GDsus2 And California seemed to draw you like a siren GDsus2 from a postcard, or a letter, in a frame of film melting.
Chorus EmCEmA But under you, I feel your breath move in, out slowly. EmCEmAC Under you, let go completely feeing you take over me.
(In between verses play the verse chord progression G-Dsus2)
Verse 2: GDsus2 A Hollywood flat where we'd laugh about our fortunes GDsus2 where we held jobs in this bar down at 3rd and San Vicente. GDsus2 And Ramen Noodles at 4:30 in the morning, GDsus2 When we barely could survive, I was never more alive.
Chorus EmCEmA Under you, I feel your blood flowing out slowly. EmCEmAC Under you, let go completely feeing you take over me
For the break with the strings part the chord progression is:
G/C/G/C/Em/Dsus2/C
Verse 3: G You moved in slow degrees Dsus2 A sudden memory GDsus2 You're a Leonard Cohen song GDsus2 But every now and then i'd swear G I see you standing on a sidewalk, in a Dsus2 restaurant, from a taxi cab passing. Chorus EmCEmA Under you I feel you moving in, out slowly EmCEmAC under you let go completely feeling you take over me. CG Take over me.
