Tab

This is tablature — fret positions rather than chord names. Wide lines scroll sideways on their own, so the page never does.

NOTE: The second block of tab (above) is played with the lyrics...

"Apologies from my front door, i couldn't love you more, etc", which appear after the chorus.

CHORUS CHORDS:

Dm G* Dm G*

You're going off the deep end, i'm going over all the things i've gotta say..

(<---------------2nd BLOCK OF TAB--------------->) G*

Apologies from my front door, i couldn't love you more

MIDDLE:

G* Dm Am G* Em Dm C G*

Baby between you and me love is all we need, you held out your heart so i

Dm Am G*

could watch it bleed. I never thought you would ever fall into my life so

Em Dm C G*

banal but something so light shouldn't hurt at-all.

CHORD TOWARDS END: G* (play this one really loud over & over until the tab bit comes back in)

I am dead certain this tab is correct and hopefully is easy to follow. it's my first tab

so i really hope it's ok!!! Please e-mail me with queeries, suggestions, etc

Thankyou very much,

Henry Willard, 16, England
