Artist: The War on Drugs
Song: Strangest Thing
Tabbed by: Rolle Heinonen
This is how i play the song. I like to play the C7M9 chord before Am (which is in the chord list).
Also i couldn't get the chords in chorus quite right for the "fills".
If you make up better chords please do tell and i'll correct them.
Capo 4

Summer ride on the beach
Am G Fm7
Howl at the day
Dm C G
I've been hiding out so long
Am G Fm7
I gotta find another way

Late at night I wanna see you
Am G Fm7
Well my eyes, they begin to fade
Dm C G
Am I just living in the space between
Am G Fm7
The beauty and the pain

And the real thing

Now the sky is painted
Am G Fm7
In a wash of indigo
Dm C G
I've been holding on too long
Am G Fm7
In the howling of this cold

I recognize every face
Am G Fm7
But I ain't got everything I need
Dm C G
If I'm just living in the space between
Am G Fm7
The beauty and the pain
C G
It's the strangest thing
