Capo 2nd Fret

Easy chords, but the timing of the chord changes with the lyrics takes some practice.
I've added some additional information in parethesis in the tab to assist with this.
Listen to the recording. There are probably some embelishments on the chords that could be added (hammer-ons)
Lyrics are challenging to make out in this song - may not be entirely correct here.


Intro :


  
  
Repeat 2x  (ta

ke second iter

ation right in

to G of Verse 

1) 

[Verse 1]

             
You're right I

              
 said there’s 

      
nothing left
         
Not long ago
             
I whispered in

    
 the night
              
You whispered 

        
back of course
              
Started racing

        
 out of touch
         
Not long ago

[Verse 3]

             
The shot heard

            
 deadly in the

 
 night
              
We were being 

       
civilized
              
I’m losing my 

 
touch
              
And nothin' be

     
ing rectified
              
So we’re wasti

         
ng our love
                       Em (right into Pre-chorus)
While we’re getting wise


[Pre-Chorus]

         
Head long into

 the night
             
I was all alon

             
e and I was co

             
ntemplating le
