Four years of hard work!This month of May we celebrated four years on the air. We continue working on the dissemination of this wonderful instrument, thank you for participating in our story!
Real Life (Angel) for acoustic guitar. The original version of this song is quite hard to tab,
there are lots of little intricate changes that, while beautiful, are unnecessary for this acoustic version.
I don't think it needs any more than what I've provided here, Elbow fans. You're all Elbow fans, right?
Course you are, you're not idiots.
(Fig.1: throughout the song, Mark plays the notes A and C together along with the rhythmn.
[string 5 fret 10, string 6 fret 8, all downstrokes]
This becomes the focal point of the breakdown in the song,
but you don't have to play this if you're the lone guitar
just play Am in that bit)
intro: Fmaj7 C
Fmaj7
If you wake in the quake in the role of the heartbroken
C
Pounding the ground in a sawn off ballet
Fmaj7
Bring us in an indigo dawn with the lovelorn and
C
renegade
Fmaj7
You always found peace in the grip of the beat, darling
C
Time alone with the pounding of your heart
Fmaj7
As it starts to heal you'll find a better mirror in
C
another

You, I've never known dumbfounded
Dm Em Fmaj7
So out of reach and hollowed through
A# Am Fmaj7 Am

Dm C Fmaj7
As the music pulls you through
A# Am Fmaj7 Am Fmaj7
And on that hallelujah mor____ning
Dm C C
In the arms of new love, the peace that you feel's real life
(Fmaj7, C for a bit, or go straight to the next verse, up to you, kids)
Fmaj7
Go straight to the place where you first lost your balance
C
And find your feet with the people that you love
Fmaj7
And bring us in an indigo dawn with the lovelorn and
C
renegade
Fmaj7
Yes you with the eyes ever met not forgotten
C
Get hold of the night that rises in your blood
Fmaj7
Focus on your pulse, focus on your breath,
