Hi, this is my take on the acoustic version of this great song from the short
documentary On The Third Floor. It can be viewed at this link:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fz_t27kOfv0 Hypnotise starts at 1:32.
I ve attempted to combine the two guitars to help get the little nuances that make the
song much nicer to listen to than just solid chords :) I hope you enjoy it!
Standard tuning, no capo.

There is also a variation on the A chord played higher up on the fretboard for the
descending part in the verses. The strumming can easily be heard so I will only tab the
chords to play, likewise for the intro. This riff will be denoted A*:

Verse 1
I feel like I ve been here once before
*
You threw my bags out through the door and in the road
I came home to find them on the floor
*
and as the rain began to pour I got cold
and i tried to compromise
But you keep tellin all these lies
Now i don t get to say my last goodbyes
Chorus
Goodbye to you ve been wastin all my time
You re no longer mine, now you ve left me
I can t seem to get you off my mind
that s when i realised, you had me hypnoti-i-ised
Verse 2
Why am i now living on my own
*
She keeps inviting people home all the time
Why am i still paying for phone
*
When all the luxuries she owns should be mine
Now i start to wonder why
you shrug me off when i say hi
Treatin me so bad despite how hard i try
Chorus
Goodbye to you ve been wastin all my time
You re no longer mine, now you ve left me
I can t seem to get you off my mind
that s when i realised, you had me hypnoti-i-ised
Bridge
Girl you cant hold me back no more
Your not even worth me writng lyrics for
/G
We had something good together
Did you think that you were being clever
To throw me out in awful weather
How do i forget you now
Harmonica Solo
that s when i realised, you had me hypnoti-i-ised
Chorus
Goodbye to you ve been wastin all my time
You re no longer mine, now you ve left me
I can t seem to get you off my mind
that s when i realised, you had me hypnoti--i--i--i--i--ised
