Artist: Jonsi Song: Around us Album: Go (2010) Lyrics via http://lyrics.wikia.com/J%C3%B3nsi:Around_Us WARNING: this tab isn't a perfect play along - the chords match the pitch of the voice and not the piano in the chorus- but for a cover- this work's really well + is VERY EASY to play (This is my interpretation of the song because although other tabs "worked" none are perfect for me. this is the best i can do in a few minutes...- and I won't include any interludes+instrumentals Some of the chords are altered but all very simple... (tip :when strumming favour the thicker strings) Strumming pattern is up to you- mine is too complicated to teach without a video- so I won't be :p Enjoy and Good Luck! Standard tuning E A D G e Capo on 1st D: Em7: G: Em: Dsus2: Dadd1: Dadd2: Dadd3: Dadd4: (Dadds were named by order of appearance) E x x 3 0 x x x x x A x 2 0 2 x x 2 x x D 0 0 0 2 0 0 0 2 0 G 2 0 0 0 2 2 0 0 2 B 3 3 3 3 3 3 3 3 3 e 2 0 0 0 0 3 2 2 5 (focus on the light strings when strumming D, Dsus2 in the chorus) (tip :keep your ring finger on the B string 3rd fret the whole way through) (I don't know some... all of the chord names as I made them by sound- sorry :D send corrections if you know :p) Start... D (Dsus2) Em7 (Leave out the Dsus2 if you're strumming quietly or just I see the walls, then see them fall once per chord)

You break ^Gthrough them all D (Dsus2) Em7 I see you crawl, now you stand tall Grow and ^Ggrow till tall

[Interlude] D Dsus2 D Dadd1 ....x2-(the interludes and even the whole song can be plucked- if requested i'll tab it) D (Dsus2) Em7 G In storm we scream against the stream, our eyes watering D (Dsus2) Em7 Jump into lakes, the surface breaks

We swim ^Gunderwater, and our ^Dmouths - In ^Gtune

W^Eme all want to g^Grow with the s^Deeds we will ^Dsus2sow W^Eme all want to g^Go with the tre^Des we will gr^Dsus2ow W^Eme all want to k^Gnow when we're^D all meant to^Dsus2 go To a ^Emplace you and ^GI...

D (Dsus2) Em7 G I see forest, a treasure chest full of labyrinth D (Dsus2) Em7 I see a door, holes in the floor

We'll break ^Gseeds, we'll grow

Bridge: x2

^D There's songs, ^Dadd2songs you bring to us ^D You pin both th^Dadd3e wings on us ^D I hear, I see y^Dadd2ou sing for us ^D You go tie a st^Dadd3ring around us

W^Eme all want to g^Grow with the s^Deeds we will ^Dsus2sow W^Eme all want to g^Go with the tre^Des ..... ooo^Dsus2hhh W^Eme all want to k^Gnow when we're^D all meant to^Dsus2 go To a ^Emplace you and ^GI...

W^Eme all want to ^Ggrow with the ^Dseeds we will s^Dsus2ow W^Eme all want to ^Ggo with the tr^Dees we will gr^Dsus2ow W^Eme all want to ^Gknow when we're ^Dall meant to^Dsus2 go To a ^Emplace you and ^GI...

I see you grow : I see you grow : Grow taller [this i generally leave out while playing without a loop pedal :)]

And our ^Dmouths - In ^Gtune End with: D Dadd4 D Dsus2 (slow pluck strums work best, how many times you want :p)

Hope it works - please comment and correct! :P
