It sounds best if you just play the low E string to imitate the bass then as the song
progresses start playing the A as well then the D and just keep adding in the next strings
until you're playing the full chords
I can explain why I cannot give my heart back
I left it with my Lady Blue
What was her name? She flew in, I caught her
I was a fool to let her go
She goes, she goes with her hollow bones
She goes
Every year she's back for the season
I have to keep my windows closed
I couldn't shake what my mother warned me of
Try to keep me safe between the pews
I stepped away, saw that Love was outside
She wore a name, just a different one
They all say
P (Just palm mute and play along to the clapping and chains and stuff)
I'm sorry boy, you shouldn't fly with her kind
They found a way out of God's love
She goes, shes goes with her hollow bones
Keepin it pretty is gettin pretty old
Keepin it pretty is gettin pretty old
?
It's getting pretty old
Round and round we go, we go around
Round and round we go, she wont stay dead
Stay down
There's an awful lot of holes I gotta dig
When I know you're gonna climb back up again
Stay dead, stay down
Stay dead, stay down
Stay across the sea, but I know where you'll be
When I look around and round we go, we go around
Round and round we go, she won't stay dead
Stay down
Lady you're a lure, dancing on the bar
?
Oh-ho, you know you are
You call em' to the door, hookem' in the jaw
?
Just for tonight, right?
But maybe when you're bored with the easy caught
?
And when I can't afford another empty touch
Round and round we go, we go around
Round and round we go, she stay dead
Stay down
Round and round we go, we go around
Round and round we go
She won't get out of my head
?
Stay in the ground
She won't get out of my head
?
Stay in the ground
She won't stay dead
?
She won't stay down
She won't stay dead
?
She won't stay down
She won't stay dead (She goes)
?
She won't stay down (She goes)
She won't stay
Then it ends with something like this:
