Strumming
Capo: 1
Tuning: E A D G B E
Standard Tuning. Capo 1st Fret. 2/4 timing - about 68bpm
This is how I play it on acoustic guitar, just using soft downstrokes. Adding the 9th to the opening chord
gives you the first note of the vocals. Also, pulling off with the middle finger on the Bm barre chord sounds
alright too, which makes a Bsus2 chord. (I do it in the verse, on the 2nd beat of the first bar, and the 2nd
beat of the second bar, and play Bm for the last 2 bars.)
The looooong middle eight is something you can work out if you wish, or use someone elses solo. I think it
goes from the Bm to G and works back to Bm somehow, repeats, then goes elsewhere lol. Good luck if you decide
to work it out - please post). For the Middle Eight I use(to make a bridge)the chords from the first line of
the chorus, chords from the second line of the chorus twice, then the chords from the last line of the chorus.
I end the song with a few bars of Bm.
[Verse 1]
Em9Everyone it Gseems
DHas somewhere to Bmgo
And the Em9faster the world sGpins
The Dshorter the lights will Bmglow
And I'm Em9swimming in the Gnight
DChasing down the Bmmoon
The Em9deeper in the Gwater
DThe more I long for Bmyou
[Chorus]
AMost of what you see my dear is F#mpurely for F#m7show
Because Emnot everything that Cgoes around comes Bmback around you know
AHolding on too long is just F#mfear of letting F#m7go
Because Emnot everything that Cgoes around comes Bmback around you know
AOne thing that is clear it's F#mall down F#m7hill from hBmere
[Verse 2]
Em9Lovelight in your Ghand
Dcleverly disgBmuised
All the Em9promises of Gstone
Dcrumble in the Bmnight
[Chorus]
AMost of what you see my dear F#mis worth letting F#m7go
Because Emnot everything that Cgoes around comes Bmback around you know
AHolding on too long is just a F#mfear of what to F#m7show
Because Emnot everything that Cgoes around comes Bmback around you know
EmNot everything that Cgoes around comes Bmback around you know
AOne thing that is clear F#mIt's all down F#m7hill from hBmere
