Released at October 21st 2008 as part of the Last Shadow Puppets debut -and only- album
"The Age of the Understatement", this track revolves around a very easy rhythmic guitar
section and the signature jamesbond-esque orchestra arrangements. 

Lyrics by Alex Turner & Miles Kane

NOTE: This tab is based on the next live performance:
      Live at Avatar Studios 2008 - http://goo.gl/Ow6yfk

      I highly recommend watching this live version to grasp Miles'
      rhythmic guitar part.

[Verse 1]

                               
The colder the night gets  the further she strays
                       
And he doesn't like it   Being this way
                                
And she tried so hard to steer away from the meeting place
                        
But her heart had led her there

              


[Verse 2]

                                
She clings to his consciousness  where--ver he lays
                                  
He struggles to sleep at night and du-ring the day
                                      
He's worried she's waiting in his dreams
                  
To drag him back to the meeting place
                      
His love   had left him there
          
Where her voice still echoes


[Chorus]

*                         *         
"I'm sorry I met you darling, I'm sorry I met you"
       *                                      *
As she turned into the night all he had was the words
                            *         
"I'm sorry I met you darling, I'm sorry I left you"

              


[Verse 3]

                                    
For weeks they had strolled around,  playing the fools
                                      
  They knew the time would come  and time would be cruel
                                 
Because it's cruel to e--veryone
                    
He's crying out  from the meeting place
                             
He's stran-ded himself there
          
Where her voice still echoes,


[Chorus]

*                         *         
"I'm sorry I met you darling, I'm sorry I met you"
       *                                      *
As she turned into the night all he had was the words
                            *         
"I'm sorry I met you darling, I'm sorry I left you"


[Interlude] (in the acoustic live performance they sing the strings section)

*

*              *            
Dara-rara dara-ra, dara-rara dara-ra
   *
Da-raaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa...
   (Da da ra, da da ra)


[Outro]

*                         *         
"I'm sorry I met you darling, I'm sorry I left you"
