Artist: The Clientele
Album: Strange Geometry
Song: E.M.P.T.Y.
Tabbed by: Jimbob - jimbobriley@gmail.com
As with the other Clientele tabs, you need to add a few
embellishments due to the picking. On the normal E chord during
the chorus Alistair seems to use his little finger on the high
E string to pick out the 4th and 2nd frets.
The E* means play with the 7th fret barre version of the chord.
Also use your little finger here in the chorus to pick out some
of those high notes further up the neck. The B(sus4) chord
means alternate between B and Bsus4 (fairly obvious in the
track).
| B | E | A | E | x2
BWhen I'm Eriding Ahome at Enight now
BI get Ein so Atired E
BTo the Esaws and Abows that Espell out
BE-M-EP-T-AY E
----------
B E* F#
But driving west now
E* B
Half-past five
E* F#
My skin is cut
E* B
My hands are knives
E* F# E* B
I could be anyone alive
But EI just Acan't Efit
And Bit's too Elate to Aquit E
----------
Chorus:
E* B(sus4)
When the night air comes to me
I wonder if the Edays I've lived through count
E* B(sus4)
With the world strung like a rosary
Through faces moving Ein the crowd
----------
AWhat is the Ecolor and the B(sus4)number
When happiness Ebegins?
AWhen the Eknight waits in the B(sus4)laurels
F#(low) E
Hesitating...
----------
| C# |
I found a Bclarity I've never known
In Efag-end weeks before I left for Aschool E
The C#darkness in the pylons
And the Bsmoke and creosote
ECancelling the Afaces that we Eknew
| B | E | A | E | x2
Solo:
| E | (freak out on the E chord)
----------
B E* F# E* B
Did they forget the light inside your eyes?
E* F# E* B
Those simple words, those lovers' signs?
E* F# E* B
The hand is dealt, the cards are played
But EI just cAan't fit E
And Bit's too Elate to Aquit E
----------
Chorus:
E* B(sus4)
I saw them, and I knew them all
Inside a sheet of Eflame
E* B(sus4)
I saw them, and I knew them all
Inside a sheet of Eflame
----------
BWhen I'm Eriding Ahome at Enight now
BI get Ein so Atired E
BTo the Esaws and Abows that Espell out
BE-M-EP-T-AY E
E-M-P-T-Y
E-M-P-T-Y
