Mercury

{tuning: Standard (EADGBE)}
 [Eb] (
 [Eb]  [Bb]  [Eb]  [G]  [Bb]
 [Eb])
Guitar 2 is a mandolin, tuned down 1/2 step (Gb Db Ab Eb)

Note: Watch the time signature here. The main riff is in 14/8, which
I think of as a measure of 6 followed by a measure of 8 (as
I indicate below). But, the rest of the song is in 8/8, and the
shifts from 14/8 to 8/8 and back again are subtle.

Intro and main riff:

{sot}|  |-----0-----------|----0--------------|
|  |--------0--2/3\2-|-------0-----0-----|
|14|-----------2/3\2-|-0--------------0--| Guitar 1 (all of guitar 1
| 8|-----------2/3\2-|-0-----------------| is played with a slide)
|  |-----------2/3\2-|-0-----------------|
|  |--0--------------|-0--------0--------|{eot}
    (6/8)             (8/8)

| |/5--------5--------|{eot}

S[Eb]he is trapped inside a month of grey
And they take a little every day

S[Ab]he is a victim of her own responses

S[Eb]hackled to a heart that wants to settle
And the runs away

I[Bb]t's a sin to be fa[Ab]ding endlessly
Yeah, but she's al[Eb]right with me

She is leaving on a walkaway
She is leaving me in disarray
In the absence of a place to be
She stands there looking back at me
Hesitates, and then turns away
She'll change so suddenly
She's just like mercury
Yeah, but she's alright with me

{section: Bridge}
