Tabbed by: Sinique
A little pre note, This tab is written as a intermediate level set of chords, although there are some other
chord positions that would add to the song, those will be at the bottom of the page. I didn't include them near
words themselves because they aren't really needed, but they make more of a movement if you have them. Also some
chords will have dropped fingers
Finally, NEVER mute any stings on the chords, it gives that haunting sound that gives this song life.
It may sound awkward at first, but I personally think it adds that much more to the sound.
Other than that, this will have a capo on the third fret. Standard tuning E,A,D,G,B,e
VERSE I
C Cadd9/E C F C (OPTIONAL RIFF) Em7
My father was a giant, In his arms, I could leave the earth behind
C Cadd9/E C F C (optional riff) Em7
My mother held a voice Of reassurance That everything was fine
C Cadd9/E C F C (optional riff) Em7
My memory's a vault It plays against me Selection is the game
C Cadd9/E C F C (optional Riff)
It's been so long since I remember days When the sun would never fade
Am7 Gadd9
Even on cold days
F
My door's always open
Am7 Gadd9
Where grey is enough light
F
To color my world
(still on a F)
CHORUS
C
I've a memory
Gadd9
Of a little boy
Am7
Who you'd like to meet
F
He could do anything
C
I've been missing him
Gadd9
Hope he's been missing me
F
All these years
VERSE II
C Cadd9/E C F C (optional riff)Em7
Someone caught my eye And I noticed a face I recognize
C Cadd9/E C F C (optional riff)Em7
So good to see you back Let's hear your stories I'd be glad to share you mine
Am7 G
Even on cold days
F
My door's always open
Am7 G
Where grey is enough light
F
To color my world
CHORUS II
C
I've a memory
Gadd9
Of a little boy
Am7
Who you'd like to meet
F
He could do anything
C
I've been missing him
Gadd9
Hope he's been missing me
F
All these years
[x2]
C
I must say how
G F
It's so good to see you
C
Will you stay long
G F
I could use a minute
[x2]
Cadd9/E One fancy riff during the verses after each line in the verse
e-|------0------|---0------------------------------------------------------------------------------|-0--------

1----E----+----A----2----E----+----A----3----E----+----A----4----E----+----A----1
going from the last C chord ( Slide your finger )
play all F chords like this.
e-|-----0----|
B-|-----1----|
G-|-----2----|
D-|-----3----|
A-|-----3----|
E-|-----0----|
That way, during the lead up to the Chorus if you add that high F then the high G you'll hear a similar effect
as that of the guitar part that birds play
Final Bit. In the part I must say how ect ect while playing the G chord, mute the low G
Thank you sooo much, Enjoy. This is my first tab, so tell me how i did, and if you think something different
would sound better ^ _ ^
