Tabbed by: Zack Deere
Email: GuitarIsMy1Love
Ok, This is my first Tab, and I was watching the Live AOL sessions
performance and I had no clue what guitar to watch... So this is done
by ear, sounds pretty close, good to use if your just gonna mess around
with it. Also I dont know the name of all the chords, sorry...
Tuning: Standard
Chords To use: E Unknown Dsus2 A5 ? ?/ A A(slide)e|----------------------------------------------------------------------------|B|----------------------3---------------------------------2------3------------|G|-1--------6-----------2----------2-------4--------4-----2------2------------|D|-2--------7----------------------2-------4--------2-----2------2------------|A|-2--------7------------------------------2--------4-------------------------|E|----------------------------------------------------------------------------|
The "Unknown" chord I believe is a higher octive of F#m... so with that said,
You can also play the "Unknown" chord as a regular F#m, sounds good either way...
you choose what you want...
Intro: E... Unknown... Dsus2 (play twice)
E Unknown Dsus2
There's a place off Ocean Avenue
Dsus2 E
Where I used to sit and talk with you
Unknown
We were both 16
Dsus2
And it felt so right
Dsus2 E Unknown Dsus2
Sleeping all day, staying up all... night
Dsus2 E Unknown Dsus2
Staying up all night
E Unknown Dsus2
There's a place on the corner of Cherry Street
Dsus2
We would walk on the beach in our bare feet
E
We were both 18
Unknown Dsus2
And it felt so right
Dsus2 E Unknown Dsus2
Sleeping all day, staying up all... night
Dsus2 E Unknown Dsus2
Staying up all... night
E Unknown
If I could find you now
Dsus2
Things would get better
E Unknown
We would leave this town
Dsus2
And run forever
E Unknown
Let your waves crash down on me
Dsus2 A A(slide)
And take me away, yea
(Play the same as last verse)
Theres a piece of you that's here with me
Its everywhere I go
It's everything I see
When I sleep
I dream and it gets me by
I can make believe that you're here tonight
That you're here tonight
(Play the same as last chorus)
If I could find you now
Things would get better
We would leave this town
And run forever
I know some where, some how
We'll be together
Let your waves crash down on me
And take me away, yea
Bridge: E Unknown Dsus2 (x3)
A5
I remember that look in your eyes
? ?/
When I told you this was good bye
A5
You were begging me not tonight
?
Not here
?/
Not now
A5
When looking up at the same night sky
? ?/
And keep pretending the sun will not rise
A5
We'll be together for one more night
?
Some where
?/ A5
Some how
(Chorus x 1)
If I could find you now
Things would get better
We would leave this town
And run forever
I know some where, some how
We'll be together
Let your waves crash down on me
And take me away, yea
