...whilst guitar 2 starts this nice sounding solo (solo 1) (Ive found that a
chorus pedal works well with this- but if you dont have one then some reverb
should be fine)
e-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
b-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
g----------10---------8--------8-8-10\3-3--3-5----------------------------------
d--8-10--------5-6------3-5--------------------3(let ring through verse)--------
a-------8----------6--------6---------------------------------------------------
e-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
CHORUS: both guitars play the intro/chorus. when Dexter stops singing, guitar two
breaks off and plays the "meaty" riff twice through.
2nd half of the second verse (bridge):
e------8------6------6--1----4---------- -----
b----6------4------4-------3---4/6------ -----
g--5------5------3--------3------------- x2 -----
d--------------------------------------- --8--
a--------------------------------------- --8--(this note is palm muted
e--------------------------------------- --6-- near the end on guitar 1)
This is the whole song- the rest of the song carries on with all these parts
(remember the first part of the chorus is played the same on both guitars-
the "meaty" riff only comes in during the 2nd run through- when he stops singing
and starts doing that little moan thing.)
Now for the bass:
Tuning: E A D G (standard tuning)
Im not a bassist so theres probably stacks of room for improvement here, but I
thought this could get you started. Ill add an order of how it is played to try
and make more sense of it:
intro 2x
verse 3x
chorus 4x
verse 4x
chorus 4x
verse and bridge
chorus 2x
verse 2x
chorus and ending
Lyrics:
VERSE 1
Maybe in another life
I could meet you there
Pulled away before your time
I cant deal, its so unfair
CHORUS 1
And it feels
And it feels like
Heavens so far away
And it feels
Yeah it feels like
The world has grown cold
Now that youve gone away
VERSE 2
Leaving flowers on your grave
Show that I still care
But black roses and hail Marys
Cant bring back whats taken from me
BRIDGE
I reach to the sky
And call out your name
And if I could trade
I would
CHORUS 2
And it feels
And it feels like
Heavens so far away
And it stings
Yeah it stings now
The world is so cold
Now that youve gone away
