Great song by Rogue Wave! Got to see them play it live the other night at the
Sweetwater in Mill Valley, CA.
This is my first tab so be nice!
Pretty simple pattern, you just need to figure out the strumming. This is just the
basic acoustic chords,
without the additional electric guitar riffs that are layered in.
[Intro]
A E F#m E D X2
[Verse]
A E
thought you were an author
F#m E D
when it’s just dictation
A E
why even bother
F#m E D
you’re a happy little patient
E F#m
uh oh oh oh – ooh ooh5
E F#m D
uh oh oh oh – ooh ooh
A E
grey gets colder
F#m E D
till your heart gives over
A E
don’t wanna wake up
F#m E D
cuz to wake up is to face it
[Chorus]
Bm D
so you turn against the tide
F#m E D
you wind up where the forces collide
Bm D
there’s a million forms of light
F#m E A D Bm D
you lucked out like a california bri-i-i-ide
A E F#m E D [2x]
A E
in the middle of jumping
F#m E D
into the belly of a mountain
A E
where the level is a constant
F#m E D
where your heart can’t function
[Chorus]
Bm D
so you turn against the tide
F#m E D
you wind up where the forces collide
Bm D
there’s a million forms of light
F#m E A D Bm D
you lucked out like a california bri-i-i-ide
Bm F#m
no you’re never gonna find love
E
it’s impossible to hold up
Bm D
you know you’re never gonna find love
A E
you’ve got to take your chances babe
F#m E A
or you’re never gonna find love
A E F#m E D [2x]
[Chorus]
Bm D
so you turn against the tide
F#m E D
you wind up where the forces collide
Bm D
there’s a million forms of light
F#m E A D Bm D Bm D
you lucked out like a california bri-i-i-ide i-ide
[Outro]
A E F#m E D [4x] (sounds like "never gonna compromise" and "never gonna find" layered in
the background)
