                          Torn - Natalie Imbruglia

                              *Single Version*

Notes:

          Play the rhythm acoustically and the lead section (reminiscent
of the lead sections from James' "She's A Star") in the Coda electrically.
I could tell you what the settings are, but since all amps differ, it
would be a better idea to go and tra in yourself to find these settings
yourself!  The chords in brackets are the transition chords and are played
for a much shorter period than the chords out of brackets.  Transition
chords are used to "musically fuse" two chords together!

Recommended Chord Positions:

 [Am]  xO221O


 [C]   x32O1O

 [Dm]  xxO231



{section: Intro}
 [F]    [Bb]    [F]    [Gm]

{section: Verse 1}
 [F]           I thought I saw a man brought[Am] to life

 [Bb]           He was warm, he came around like he was dignified

            He showed me what it was to cry

 [F]           Well you couldn't be that man [Am]I adored

            You don't seem to know

 [Bb]           Don't seem to care what your heart is for

            But I don't know him anymore

Pre Chorus 1:

 [Dm]                There's nothing where he used to lie

 [C]                My conversation has run dry

 [Am]                That's what's going on

 [C]                Nothing's fine

 [F]                I'm torn

{section: Chorus 1}
          (
 [F])
 [C]            I'm al[Dm]l out of faith, this is how I feel

 [Bb]            I'm cold and I a[F]m shamed, lying naked on the floor

 [C]               Illusion [Dm]never changed, into something real

 [Bb]            I'm wide awake and I [F]can see, the perfect sky is torn

 [C]
 [Dm]  (
 [C])
 [Bb]            You're a little late, I'm already torn

{section: Verse 2}
 [F]           So I guess the fortune teller[Am]'s right

 [Bb]           I should have seen just what was there and not some holy light

            But you crawl beneath my veins and now

Pre Chorus 2:

                (Same chords and rhythm as Pre Chorus 1)

                 I don't care, I have no luck

                 I don't miss it all that much

                 There's just so many things

                 That I can't touch

                 I'm torn

{section: Chorus 2}
            (Same as Chorus 1)

{section: Bridge}
 [Dm]  (
 [C])
 [Bb]          [Dm]Torn...        [F]     Ooooh.[C]..  Hoo ooooh...  Ooooh

Pre Chorus 3:

                (Same chords and rhythm as Pre Choruses 1 and 2)

                 There's nothing where he used to lie

                 My inspiration has run dry

                 That's what's going on

                 Nothing's right

                 I'm torn

{section: Chorus 3}
          (
 [F])
 [C]            I'm al[Dm]l out of faith, this is how I feel

 [Bb]            I'm cold and I a[F]m shamed, lying naked on the floor

 [C]            Illusion nev[Dm]er changed, into something real

 [Bb]            I'm wide awake and I [F]can see, the perfect sky is torn

 [C]            I'm al[Dm]l out of faith, this is how I feel

 [Bb]            I'm cold and I am sha[F]med, bound and broken on the floor

 [C]
 [Dm]  (
 [C])
 [Bb]            You're a little late, I'm already torn

{section: Outro}

          Ooh...
