 Strum those in rhythm, and it should sound right.
 Those are the chords for all of the verse parts.
 For the bridge, just apreggiate them.
 The verse is just a repetition on those chords for 8 bars I think,
 heres the chorus
 I'm  almost drowning  in her sea,  shes nearly crawlin  on her knees
 Fpr the last chorus, its
 I'm  almost drowning  in her sea,  she's nearly crawlin  on her knees,
 It's  almost everything  I need
 Essentailly for everything not Tabbed out, play the main riff.
 Good luck!

 This is a very simple song to play involving a few easy chords with
 alternating bass strings played. The effectiveness comes from the haunting,
 soulful vocals.
 
   chord with
 
   bass (300032)
 
 
 
 
 
  Took  the way home that leads back to Sullivan Street
 
 
  Across  the water and home through the town
 
 
  Past  the shadows that fall down wherever we meet
 
 
  Pretty  soon now, I won't come around //// (strong strum)
   I'm almost drowning  in her sea
   She's nearly  fallen to her knees
 
 
   Took the way home .....(Ba, Ba, Baaaa)
 
 
  Took  the way home that leads back to Sullivan Street
 
 
  Where  all the bodies hang on the air
 
 
  If  she remembers she hides it whenever we meet
 
 
  Either  way now I don't really care
 'Cause I'm gone from there
   I'm almost drowning  in her sea
 
   she's nearly crawling on her knees
 
   She's down on her  knees
   She's down on her  knees
 (strum)
 
 
  Took  the way home that leads back to Sullivan Street
 
 
   Where I'm just another rider burned to the ground
 Come tumbling down
   I'm almost drowning  in his sea
   She's near me, crawling  on her knees
 
 
   It's almost everything I need.
 I'm  down on my knees
 I'm  down on my knees
 I'm down on....
   down on  my knees.
   I'm down on my knees.
 *Arpeggio:
 D pluck 4&1 together, then 1,2,3,1,2,3
 D/G pluck 6&1 together, same pattern
