Night and Day Tabs & Lyrics by The Good Life
Night and Day
guitar tabs lyrics
I was just trying to figure out this amazing song and I figure I'd contribute my
so others can enjoy.
The strumming is done by picking down on a bass note then strumming up on the bottom
then picking down on the next bass note and then up again on the bottom strings.
For the F - F7 parts I use an open chord and switch between:
1--- 0---|
1--- 1---|
-2-- -2--|
--3- --3-|
---- ----|
---- ----|
I don't think the other chords matter.
Intro
F F7
Bbm Dm
I know a girl with cuts on her legs.
A A#
I think that she hates the way she was made,
A A#
but we never spoke of why they were there,
Dm A#
I just squeezed them and kissed them
F C F F7
�til we both felt a bit better.
Bbm Dm
And now I�ve returned to the town where she dwells;
A A#
that small lonely cabin her grandfather built,
A A#
I suppose that�s where she�s imprisoned herself,
Dm A# F C
to write all those words she�s too scared to tell �
Dm A# F C F F7
those sad, short stories of a girl curled up in her shell.
Dm A F C
Night and day she tends to the bar.
F F7 A# F
She pours the drinks, they pour out their hearts.
Dm A F C
All that sorrow and al-co-hol
F F7
weighs hard on her thoughts,
Bbm
so she writes them down�.
Bbm F F7
she loves them all.
Bbm
And when we�d make love
Dm
she�d stare in my eyes�.
A A#
I swore we had met a thousand times.
A A#
Thousands of lives, thousands of nights�.
Dm A# F C
She�d written within a thousand lines.
(pause)
Dm A F C
Night and day she tends to her bar.
F F7 A# F
She pours me a drink for my thirsty heart.
Dm A F C
All my sorrow�s in al-co-hol�
F F7 Bbm
she holds up the cup to my parched lips
F F7
for a kiss.
