Same Mistake Chords & Tabs
James Blunt Same Mistake
This tab isn't 100% accurate, it's my own interpretation - it's probably missing quite a
notes. However, I was looking for this tab and realised that no one has actually
one with the proper intro and first verse part so I decided to give it a shot. Don't
it - write your own.
Stick a capo on fret 3

This can be repeated through the first Ooo bridge.
The second Ooo bridge which leads into the chorus is strumming. The Chorus itself is
strumming.
These are the chords with the lyrics:
Bridge
Em C G D
Oooooo Oooooo Oooooo
Chorus
C G
I'm not calling for a second chance
D Em
I'm screaming at the top of my voice
C G
Give me reason, but don't give me choice
Am C G
Cause I'll just make the same mistake again
Oooooo
The verse following this can be played by strumming chords or the previous verse part.
way sounds cool.
VERSE (just incase you forget it's meant to be here)
The next part is a double chorus so the chord sequence is just looped. This is how it
with lyrics:
Em C G D
Oooooo Oooooo oooooo
C G
I'm not calling for a second chance
D Em
I'm screaming at the top of my voice
C G
Give me reason, but don't give me choice
Am C
Cause I'll just make the same mistake
G
I'm not calling for a second chance
D Em
I'm screaming at the top of my voice
C G
Give me reason, but don't give me choice
Am C G
Cause I'll just make the same mistake again
This next bit is a new bit which follows a similar chord sequence but I have fitted to
so it makes more sense.
Em C
Oooooo Oooooo Oooooo
G Em
Oooooo So while I'm turning in my sheets
C
Oooooo And once again I cannot sleep
G
Oooooo Walk out the door and up the street
Oooooo Look at the stars
Em C
Oooooo Look at the stars falling down
Oooooo And I wonder where
G
Oooooo Did I go wrong
And so this tab ends :)
Problems? Let me know so I can alter it.
