Puritan by Widowspeak
Opening track from the band's 2011 self titled debut. Couldn't make out all the lyrics,
but I tried to write down what I could. I didn't bother tabbing some of the lead solo
stuff in the middle of the song, but these chords are correct.
Tuning: Standard
NOTE: E is the only chord in the song that is played open; the rest are all barre
chords, as indicated.
Intro:
e|------------------------------------|

Four hour drive
Strange world outside
Shattered to see
The sun go down
B11 A
e|--7--- --5----|
B|--7--- --5----|
G|--8--- --6----|
D|--9--- --7----|
A|--9--- --7----|
E|--7--- --5----|
B11Don't know Aourselves
B11In this Ahollow town
Then play this:
E (open) followed by A—
E E E E E E E / AA
If you have two guitarists you can continue play this progression over the top of
the following verses (which just alternate between an E and A).
ESo charmed, the rich in power
APuritans had all the power
EShow them how their eyes were blue
ATell me I'll stay with you
B11Always Awaiting
B11And you're Afading, fading out
ESo I looked my Sunday best
AStill inside a devil's dress
ETall, dark ... (?)
ALike the time they stood (?)
B11I was Alooking
B11Puritans Awatching
B11I, I was Awatching, watching out
Resume E / A progression and end the song on the E chord.
