Hi, I'm Alvin L. and I tabbed this by ear. This is my first tab. Sorry if it sounds off,
but this is how I play it. Enjoy !
Standard Tuning : EADGBe
Capo : 3rd Fret
[Verse 1]
Cadd9 D
Bags all packed, make sure, you remember everything
G G/B
No looking back, no more; not for anything.
Cadd9 D
This is what you wanted, isn't it?
G
Clear it out just like you've never been
G/B
What's a goodbye good for, anyway?
Em C
There's nothing left of you to remind me
D
But somehow you're still standing behind me
[Pre-Chorus]
Cadd9
I'm trying hard to forget you
D G
But my empty walls won't let me let you go
G/B
When you took it all, you forgot your shadow
Cadd9
You say you wish me well without you
D Em D/F# Cadd9
But something 'bout you tells me that you know, ohhh, ohhh
[Chorus]
*stop*
When you took it all you forgot
Cadd9 D G
Your shadow, your shadow
G/B
When you took it all you forgot
Cadd9 D Em D/F# Cadd9
Your shadow, your shadow, your shadow, ohhh, ohhh
[Verse 2]
Cadd9
Hide all your photographs,
D
But I can feel you watching me
G
How long does your memory last?
G/B
It's time I ought to be
Cadd9
Moving on and getting over you
D
I bet it looks like I'm not even trying to
G G/B
Here all alone, my past on the walls
Em C
With nothing left of you to remind me
G D
So why are you still standing behind me
[Pre-Chorus]
Cadd9
I'm trying hard to forget you
D G
But my empty walls won't let me let you go
G/B
When you took it all, you forgot your shadow
Cadd9
You say you wish me well without you
D Em D/F# Cadd9
But something 'bout you tells me that you know, ohhh, ohhh
[Chorus]
*stop*
When you took it all you forgot
Cadd9 D G
Your shadow, your shadow
G/B
When you took it all you forgot
Cadd9 D Em D/F# Cadd9
Your shadow, your shadow, your shadow, ohhh, ohhh
[Bridge]
Cadd9 D
It's always there, too close, too much
Em G
The shape of something I can't touch
Cadd9 D Em F
I turn, and find the shadow's grown
Cadd9 D
Those empty eyes I begged to stay
Em G
Are watching me from yesterday
Cadd9 D Em F
You can leave me, can you leave me alone?
[Pre-Chorus]
Cadd9
I'm trying hard to forget you
D G
But my empty walls won't let me let you go
G/B
When you took it all, you forgot your shadow
Cadd9
You say you wish me well without you
D Em D/F# Cadd9
But something 'bout you tells me that you know, ohhh, ohhh
[Chorus]
*stop*
When you took it all you forgot
Cadd9 D G
Your shadow, your shadow
G/B
When you took it all you forgot
Cadd9 D Em D/F# Cadd9
Your shadow, your shadow, your shadow, ohhh, ohhh
*stop*
When you took it all you forgot
Cadd9 D
Your shadow, your shadow
G
Bags all packed, make sure you remember everything
