Me by Nocturnal Rites
The chords are lined up to match the Lyrics. If there doesn't seem to be a Chord
playing on the word that's because you should be playing the chords prior to it,
ex: chords left over from the verse to the Chorus.
Intro:
(Opening Piano is a simple C minor Arpeggio leading to Broken Inversions of the same chord)
Verse 1:
Cm Bb Cm
One, yes one more drink
Bb G# Fm Cm
One last cigarette and I am on my way
Bb Cm Bb Cm
Oh last night, it's all a haze
Bb G# Fm G
Here I pave my way through filth and broken glass
PreChorus:
G# Fm
Something is not the same
Cm Bb
Something is different from before
G# Fm
Guess that I, I guess I died
G G# Bb
inside Oh
[ Tab from: https://www.guitartabs.cc/tabs/n/nocturnal_rites/me_crd_ver_2.html ]
Chorus:
(The first Chord can be substitued for the previous Bb chord, whatever you think sounds right)
Eb Bb Cm G#
When there's nothing more
Eb Bb
When I'd tried it all
Cm G# Bb G
Come and gone, when the odds were close to none
G Fm Cm G#
When the moment's there
Eb Bb
The divide I beware
G# Bb Cm
Then it's me, it's only me
Verse 2
Cm Bb Cm Bb
Torn, still torn and bruised
G# Fm Cm
But I've had my run, and I, I'll see it through
Bb Cm Bb Cm
All for you, my sweet farewell
Bb G# Fm G
Oh, I can't believe that I survived this hell
Repeat Chorus
Female Vocal Solo:
(I'm not going to write "Ooh" over and over again, becuase that's just stupid.

Em (8 beats) D (4 Beats) B (8 Beats)
Closing Chorus:

When I'd tried it all
C#m A B Ab
Come and gone, when the odds were close to none
C#m A
When the moment's there

The divide I beware

Then it's me, it's only me
