One of the quieter songs off of I Am Not Afraid of You..., this song is played in a
combination of notes and chords.
Intro (the first bar):
G
|e-----3-3-3-------|
|B-----3-3-3-------|
|G-----0-0-0-------|
|D---0-0-0-0-0-0---|
|A-----2-2-2-------|
|E-----3-3-3-------|
Main rhythm of the song:
G G G G
|e---3-3-3-----3-3-3-----3-3-3-----3-3-3-------|
|B---3-3-3-----3-3-3-----3-3-3-----3-3-3-------|
|G---0-0-0-----0-0-0-----0-0-0-----0-0-0-------| (Same pattern until
|D---0-0-0-0-2-0-0-0-2-0-0-0-0-0-2-0-0-0-2-0---| "chorus")
|A---2-2-2-----2-2-2-----2-2-2-----2-2-2-------|
|E---3-3-3-----3-3-3-----3-3-3-----3-3-3-------|
Calls me to the ocean, takes me wandering through the street,
Restless imagination...
"Chorus":
D G G
|e-------2-2-2-----3-3-3-----3-3-3-------|
|B-------3-3-3-----3-3-3-----3-3-3-------|
|G-----2-2-2-2-2---0-0-0-----0-0-0-------| (Continue playing main rhythm)
|D---0---0-0-0---0-0-0-0-0-2-0-0-0-2-0---|
|A-------x-x-x-----2-2-2-----2-2-2-------|
|E-------x-x-x-----3-3-3-----3-3-3-------|
But for now, I want my feet on the ground,
'Cause I feel like going home
I can float above the ceiling, I like drifting through the air,
Tend to lose my concentration...
But right now, the clouds don't appeal too much
I feel like going home
Bridge:
D D
Sometimes late at night, while running from the rain,
G G
Running from the voices filling up my brain
C G
How I wish they'd leave me alone
D G
And let me be to go off on my own,
C G
Let me be to go home,
G
I feel like going home
The outro is a little weird; it's basically a repetition of the same melody on the
guitar. Here's my best shot at tabbing this melody:
|e-------------------------|
|B---3-3---3-5---3---5-3---|
|G---4-3---4-5---4---5-4---|
|D-------------------------|
|A-------------------------|
|E-------------------------|
Thanks! Hope this tab helped.
