CAPO II
The intro/bridge part is fingerpicked and uses the following chords:
(everything relative to the capo)
Em (played as bar chord) x79987
D ( - " - ) x57775
C ( - " - ) x35553
G (regular open chord) 320003
C ( - " - ) x32010
D/A ( - " - ) x00232
The way that i pick it, is:
e----------------------------------------------------|

so its basically: thumb for strings 4,5,6 pointer on 3, ring on 2
all you do is pluck the bass note together with your ringfinger on the 2nd string -
> pluck pointer on 3rd string -> thumb on 4th -> 2nd -> 3rd
(not sure if it's really 100% accurate, but sounds ok to me....)
Intro fingerpicked(first three chords are bar chords)
Em D C | G C G C G
Em D C | G C G D
G
You were standing there
G/F# Em
With street lights in your hair
C G D
And you were on the arm of someone unaware
G
That I was standing there,
G/F# Em
as if my bones were there
C
And when our eyes collide,
G D
The ghost of us appears
-break-
To remind you
(Fingerpicked)
Em D C G C G C G
He won't know you like I know you
Em D C G C G D
Cause he won't love you like I do
(Strumming)
G
Oh I'm tryin' to speak
G/F# Em
And the words fall carelessly
C G D
On to the ground, and pile up around your feet
G
And darling truthfully
G/F# Em
I stare in disbelief
C G D
That someone else is taking you away from me
-break-
To remind you
(Fingerpicked)
Em D C G C G C G
He won't know you like I know you
Em D C G >C G D (Start to strum where the arrow stands)
Cause he won't love you like I do
Em C
He don't know you like I do
D Em C
No He don't know you like I do
D G C
And he won't love you like I do
D G C
And he won't love you like I do
