Song Title: Tell Me
Band Name: Side A
Tab by: Keno Ventolero
Great song from one of the best OPM bands ever..
Guitar 1 ~ Standard Tuning (preferably acoustic, capo on 2)
Guitar 2 ~ Standard Tuning (overdrive) ~ For the solo part
Also, see my Guitar Pro version of the song, you'll learn
the song quicker using that software.. ;)
Verse 1:
G D/F#
There are nights..
Em D/F#
When I can't help but cry..
B7/Eb Em D A/C# D
And I'm wonderin' why you had to leave me..
G D/F# Em D/F#
Why did it have to end so soon?
B7/Eb Em D A/C# D
When you said that you would never leave me..
[Tab]: (Well at least here's how I play it...)

Chorus:
Bm7 - Em
Tell me..
Cadd9 Bm7 - Em
Where did I go wrong?
Cadd9 Bm7 - Em Am7
What did I do to make you change your mind..
D - Cadd9
Completely..
Bm7 - Em
And I thought..
Cadd9 Bm7 - Em
This love would never end..
Cadd9 Bm7 - Em
But if this love's not ours to have..
Am7
I'd let it go..
D G ~
With your goodbye..
