One of her best songs, and there's no tab for it! Thought I had to figure out the chords
at least. This isn't the way she plays it, but it works.
Chords used:
G: 334553
D7 2nd invertion: 575755
Bm7 with b9 variation: 877797
A7sus4 2nd inversion: 030200
Asus2 2nd inversion: 002200
No idea of the name: 000200 (let's call it Em-)
A7 2nd inversion: 020200
Em: 000220
D: 232000
She picks the chords at the beginnig and then strums softly. You can figure out the
picking, it isn't that difficult, you just have to listen

G Bm7 D7 G
You're holding bits of Styrofoam with your face painted on to your friends
You listen to them whine and moan about everything you can't understand
Asus4 Asus2 Em- Asus2
Can I just say I don't fear the light?
But darkness descends once more into my life
G Bm7 D7 G
And suddenly we're all alone in silence so I take a step away
I look up to the falling snow as it makes its home upon my face
Asus4 Asus2 Em- Asus2
Well I wouldn't want to ruin something I couldn't save
The gap will keep us safe, the gap will keep us safe
G Asus2 G Asus2
Step away, get me when I'm down
Em A7 Em
Aaaaaaaaah

And suddenly I'm 5 years old and I'm just so cold I want to cry
I haul up on my gentlemen who have always been there in hard times
Asus4 Asus2 Em- Asus2
They're just not like that man of mine
Who visits me from time to time

My love, I treasure you

Aaaaaaaaah

I hear that summer's coming back so I stretch out my back and travel on
The winter though it darkens me it is pure and clean and all I want

I'll apologise to the ones I love
For leaving them when the sun comes up
G Asus2 G Asus2
Too bright for me, darkens descends

Oh well, I'm not well again and once more darkness it descends
The ground is falling under me and I can't find the means to leave

Convinced that I am going mad oh I bury my head into his hands
So sure that I am losing faith oh I clear a space in his father's land
Asus4 Asus2 Em- Asus2
You deal with God far too young, D
Before you know it your life has run away
This happens to be my very first tab, but I don't need your pity, so feel free to tell
me that it is completely wrong and that I suck!
cheers,
Marlene
