Tuning: Standard. No capo.
This tab is relatively easy to play and I decided that I'd attempt to write it down for
you lot :D This is actually my first tab, so don't judge.. I'm a novice :P Please email
if there's any problems.
Intro: x2
e|---x--------------------x---------------------|
B|---0--------------------0---------------------|
G|---6--------------------4---------------------|
D|---7--------------------5---------------------|
A|---7--------------------5---------------------|
E|---x--------------------x---------------------|
"When you wake what is it that you think of most, when your bed.."

Repeat that chord sequence for the whole of the verse, also for the prechorus "Stop
crying to the ocean.." etc. You can slide between the two chords if you want.
Then the chorus goes like this:
"So.. it's been so long since you've said"
e|---2---------------x---------------------------x---------------|
B|---3---------------0---------------------------0---------------|
G|---4---------------4---------------------------6---------------|
D|---4---------------5---------------------------7---------------|
A|---2---------------5---------------------------7---------------|
E|-------------------x---------------------------x---------------|
"Well I know what I want, and what I want is right here with you"
e|-----------x----------------------------------------------------x-----|
B|-----------0----------------------------------------------------0-----|
G|-----------6----------------------------------------------------4-----|
D|-----------7----------------------------------------------------5-----|
A|-----------7----------------------------------------------------5-----|
E|-----------x----------------------------------------------------x-----|
Then repeat the intro part 2x
Then the verses and choruses are the same. It only uses 3 chords and once you get used
to them it's really easy to play the song. Enjoy :D
