I included the D/Fchord because in the outro it sounds rather nice and
fits just about as well as the F5 does, so just pick whichever you think
sounds best.
Intro/Verse:
| | | x6
What you want to say,
Wait till you get home.
I'm sick of communicating over the
Telephone.
But tell me how you feel,
I am lonely too
Need you to know
I'm just as cold & numb as you.
Cadd9 - One bar being the length of the four verse chords, play this for 8
bars. There's lots of fiddlyness here, which you could improvise, or figure
out from the many tabs.
| | | x4
But I could fly away,
Or I could be no one.
And you could be the
Sunshine falling over the Mountains
Or you could come today
You could come right home
I don't see why I have to
Live this life all alone.
Cadd9 (Again, there's more fiddly guitar lines here, best to improvise or
have a look at the other tabs)
I know there is a way to make up for old Mistakes
I know what's happening is for a reason
John starts singing as he plays the Em chord, and ends on the Cadd9 which
lasts a bar. If he sings words I haven't managed to decipher them, but if you
can get the tone with your voice the details don't matter here.
