(note: until the last two lines of the chorus, he barely plays the top 2-3 strings at all,
emphasizing the bottom three strings, the changing notes.)
(verse:)
Take your hand
Off me
Understand
Nothing
I needed you
(place/pull 7 on top string)
Yesterday
I need to move
But you're in my way
(You're in my way, in my way)
(chorus:)
It feels like you're walking out
You're walking out on me
My body is breaking down
It's just breaking down on me
It feels like you're walk-ing out
On me
(interlude 1: use verse chords)
(verse:)
Take your mind
Off me
You will find
Nothing
I need a new
Yesterday
I need to move
But you're in my way
(chorus:)
It feels like you're walking out
You're walking out on me
My body is breaking down
It's just breaking down on me
It just feels like you're walk-ing out
On me
(interlude 2:)
(when it stagnates, it's just Em with the note B pulled (to open A) and replaced)
(chorus:)
Like you're walking out
You're walking out on me
And my body's just breaking down
It's just breaking down on me
It just feels like you're walk-ing out
On me
(repeat verse chords for outro)
final note**
this is based off of the only live version to which i, and most people out there, have access.
so obviously, if someone out there somehow has a different version, one i haven't heard,
it might not sync up perfectly. but this is the most common version of the song available.
