Sad Song by Noel Gallagher
This is the bonus track on the vinyl version of Definitley Maybe, but I've
never actually heard that version. I heard it played on Oasis' appearance
on Channel 4's 'The White Room' and on the 'Live by the Sea' video.
The version I have 'tabbed' is the version played on 'The White Room',
Noel Gallagher seems to play about with it quite alot, but this is the
meat(?) of the song.
Note:
In the intro the strums in-between the single note picking is not
really as precise as it is tabbed and isn't played very loudly.

Am C
Sing a sad song in a lonely place,
Dsus2 E G
And try to put a word in for me,
Am C
It's been so long since I found a space,
Dsus2 E G
You'd better put in two or three,
Am C
We as people are just walking round,
Dsus2 E G
Our heads are firmly fixed in the ground,
Am C
What we don't see, well it can't be real,
Dsus2 E G
What we don't touch we cannot feel.

C G
Where we're livin' in this town,
Am C
The sun is coming up and it's going down,
C G D Dsus2 D Dsus4 D Dsus2 D
But it's all just the same at the end of the day,
Am G
And we cheat and we lie,
Am G
Nobody says it's wrong so we don't ask why,
Am G D Dsus2 D Dsus4 D Dsus2 D
'Cos it's all just the same at the end of the day.

***** Play Intro **************
Am C
If you're needing something I can give,
Dsus2 E G
I'll try and help you if I can,
Am C
If you're honest and you say you did,
Dsus2 E G
You know that I would give you my hand,
Am C
Or a sad song in a lonely place,
Dsus2 E G
I'll try and put a word in for you,
Am C
You need a shoulder? Well if that's the case,
Dsus2 E G
There isn't nothing I wouldn't do.
