Finger Eleven - Awake And Dreaming Chords & Tabs

Finger Eleven
Album : Tip
"Awake and Dreaming"
Nick Halm (original version)

Dylan Presley (DarkKarma17@aol.com) (edited version, chord corrections, added lyrics, voicings, etc...)

Tuning: Eb Ab Db Gb Bb Eb
Tune one 1/2 step down

This is in my opinion the best F11 to play on acoustic...

All chords are voiced as they would be if this were tunned standard
but are really another half step down...so a G is really F#...etc...

	Can't lose anything, so what's left is mine, and I win this time
Cadd9                 Em7       A?                       Cadd9          Em7   
      Consolation day, I'll make up a way, I'll know now just what to say

C               Em
  And I'll get away from you

C       G       Dsus2     A?  
Wait and I'll be begging

A?                Em7(or Em just depends if you strum the whole chord)          
And I'll get away from you
C        
and pull you down
A?
and pull you down


***Note on this verse the rhythm guitar (acoustic) comes in and plays the chords noted, quietly at first, gets louder towards end of verse, stays in through next chrous if you play it louder with a friend it gives depth****

Cadd9               Em7       A?         Cadd9       Em7
    Saw it all again  faded memory    became clear to me
Cadd9                     Em7        A?                 Cadd9        Em7
    I try but I can't say, that I'm your's for good, support me, you said you would

C               Em
  And I'll get away from you

C       G       Dsus2     A?  
Wait and I'll be begging

A?                Em          
And I'll get away from you
C        
and pull you down
