The '5_6' and '3_4' are
B-|---------6----------|---------4_____----------|- 'hammered on' notes, and
G-|-----------5-3-2-3--|-------------------------|- the last note played on
D-|--------------------|-------------------------|- the 4th fret is just
A-|--------------------|-------------------------|- held on for a while
E-|--------------------|-------------------------|
The two chords in all the verses are played as follows...
F* Fsus4 Eb* Ebsus4
| | | |
E-|--5-5---5-6-5---|--3-3---3-4-3---------------|-
This was worked out on
B-|--6-6---6-6-6---|--4-4---4-4-4---------------|- an acoustic guitar, but
G-|--5-5---5-5-5---|--3-3---3-3-3---------------|- on an electric the
D-|----------------|----------------------------|- equivalent barred chords
A-|----------------|----------------------------|- would be played
E-|----------------|----------------------------|
Verse 1:
F* Eb*
And if I could hold you,
F*
Where would you belong.
Eb*
Sitting here to reason,
F*
Now the world's gone wrong.
Eb*
And if I could listen,
F*
To half the words you say,
Would your pathway Ebglisten,
And help you on your Fway________.
Chorus:
Oh you got it Ebbad,
But you never should expect Fcover,
Boy you got it Ebso bad,
Worse than any Fother___Eb_____.
Verse 2:
If I was in your shoes,
Would it be the same?
Would you sit in silence,
While I dish out the blame?
But if the world was laughing,
Would you close your ears?
There is no creed or chancing,
To make the world more clear________.
[chorus]
[twiddly guitar bit - just play the F*/Eb* along
with their 'sus4' chords pretty quickly.]
Verse 3:
If I brought you flowers,
Would you watch them grow?
Springtime is for certain,
To follow on the snow.
And if I could hold you,
Where would you belong,
Sitting here to reason,
Now the world's gone wrong________.
[chorus]
