Verses
The names of these bar chords (without a capo) are written with the lyrics. Z plays them
bar chords off the E string, besides the B s. C# s and F s next to which I wrote
With the capo, you ll finger them as G s, A s, and D s. The next verse is played the
way.
We were up all night
Talking trash and wasting time
When he says you re beautiful
(open) (open)
It s not a line
But in the morning you might find
That he might have changed his mind
He got lonely for a love
(open) (open) (open)
For just one night
Bridge
These chords are written in the same way. Each is strummed 8 times (besides the last).
You may say
Why don t you realise
I could give you everything
But you see
He can t be tied, contained
or satisfied by all
(open)
you could bring
You can probably take it from there. If you don t think I got all of the chords right,
can watch a great video of The Like performing an acoustic version of this song on the
Stone s youtube channel, which is where I got them from. I m not positive I got them
though, so you may have to play around with them.
