Capo 2nd fret

Standard (EADGBE)

Intro

1 & 2 & 3 & 4 & 1 & 2 & 3 & 4 &

Ooh ooh oo-ooh ooh oo-ooh

Ooh oo-ooh

Ooh ooh oo-ooh ooh oo-ooh

Ooh You

Verse

1 & 2 & 3 & 4 & 1 & 2 & 3 & 4 &

look like you’ve been losing sleep said a

1 & 2 & 3 & 4 & 1 & 2 & 3 & 4 & 1 & 2 & 3 & 4 &

stranger on a train I fixed him with an

1 & 2 & 3 & 4 & 1 & 2 & 3 & 4 & 1 & 2 & 3 & 4 &

ice cold stare and said I’ve been having those dreams again

Every verse is basically played the same, but sometimes Adam throws in a C chord for the

two beats of the 1st or 2nd line of each verse, instead of just the Em riff. He also

an extra bar of the Em riff after some of the verses. I have indicated this below.

  In one dream there's this girl I love

  And we dance every wakin' breath

  And in the other they've thrown me in a cell

X2

And they're tryin' me for her death

  I'm only young and young in love

  As I hold that girl today

  But I'm old and tired and in the cell

X2

And I've nigh on withered away

Bridge

Play the intro again, but skip the first time through, so you only play it 4X, all with

“Ooh”s. Note that the first words of the next verse below (“Y’see my”) fall on the last

and a half of the bridge.

Verse

  Y'see my baby' gone away too long

  And I'm chokin' back the tears

  Disheveled star in a burnt out bar

  And I'm talkin' in my drink

  She promised me the world and more

  How could she do this to me?

  And now mine's tumblin' down around

  But at least my eyes can see, And those

  * X2

stars in the sky are for me

  So as this fagged-out tinsel town

  Waves so-long to the sun

  I lay here calmly on my bed

  And the trigger of my gun

  And should that no good woman show up

  Dancin' from a dream

  I'll squeeze it twice and not think twice

  And relish every scream

Outro

On the last line of the last verse, Adam sings “scream” an octave higher, and moves

into the falsetto “Ooh”s like in the Intro. “Scream” replaces the first “Ooh ooh”, so it

like this:

1 & 2 & 3 & 4 & 1 & 2 & 3 & 4 &

Scre- eam oo-ooh ooh oo-ooh

Ooh oo-ooh

Ooh ooh oo-ooh ooh oo-ooh

Ooh ooh ooh ooh

ooh

Gradually slow down the last few bars until the end.
