ANOUK: One Word
Album: Hotel New York
Tabbed by: Evert Lancel
On CD the song is played in a lower tuning (Eb). I here put it in standard tuning.
If you want to play along with the song, than you need to either tune your guitar
half a note lower, or make a copy of the song in higher pitch, using some
free sound editing software (Audacity). That's a lot easier than retuning all the
time.
Chords in Standard Tuning:
D add9 sus4 x54030 (for short Dadd9..)
Am9 x05500
Dsus2 xx0230
Asus2 x02200
Em7 022030 (I like 02x030, because the basses come out stronger)
Bbm7 x24232
G 355433
Csus2 x35533
The strumming rhythm is very important: The first short strums should be on the bass
tones only and the short strums for the rest of the measure should emphasis the
higher tones (while playing the base strings as well. Although it varies all the time
(just listen well), in a 16th measure it is basically like this
(V = strumming downwards, A = strumming upwards):
|V-V-VAVA--VAVA--|

(VERSE)
Dsus2 I close my Asus2eyes
And imEm7agine you're here
Did it all seem so Dsus2hopeless
Given the Asus2chance
Em7I would ask
Forgive me
I didn't do a Dsus2thing to Asus2make you Em7stay
Bsus4 A add9.. Em7
I didn't say a word to make you stay
If I would have Bsus4known
Could I have Asus2tried to make it Em7easier
But I didn't do a Bm7thing or say a Aword
One Gword
Dsus2 And I don't know Csus2why you're gone, now you're Dsus2gone
No beautiful gooCsus2dbye
You will never leave my Dsus2mind
And it turns out to Csus2be so much different than our Dsus2dreams
Csus2 Dadd9..
Now you're, you're a star in heaven
Am9 Dadd9.. Am9
(VERSE)
