Sleeping Sickness - City And Colour
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
Tabbed by: Kevin Fortier
Email: hey_man2000@hotmail.com
Tunning: Standard
Em - 022000 MsbuK - Slow Bend Up on Mth fret
C - x32010 to the Kth note
C~~ - Hit once, let ring. (MsbuK similar sound to M/K)
G - 320033 KbdM - bend dowm from Kth note
G/F# - 200033 on Mth fret
G/F#** - only 2 strums (KbdM similar sound to K\M)
GM - 554030 or x54030 {Gmaj13(no3rd)} / - Slide Up
\ - Slide Down
h - hammer on
p - pull-off
~ - let ring
Note - The GM chord choice depends on how much the player strums on his
or her top string. I recommend 554030.
- The Strumming can be figured out by listening to the song, although
note that during the chorus, it is something played like:
e|-0000-0000-0000-0000-0...
B|-3330-0000-1110-1110-3...
G|-0000-0000-0000-0000-0... (General idea)
D|-4444-2222-2222-2222-4...
A|-5555-2222-3333-3333-5...
E|-5555-0000-xxxx-xxxx-5...
and the strumming is different from the first verse compared to the
second verse.
- Pay close attention for timing on the solo.
- Depending on your guitar and amp settings(tone, etc..), some notes
on the solo might be at different locations, but they are at that
same note and same octave.
Intro Em - C - G - G/F# - Em - C - G
Verse
G/F# Em C G G/F# Em
I awoke only to find my lungs empty and through the night
C G G/F# Em
so it seems I'm not breathing and now my dreams
C G
are nothing like they were meant to be
G/F# Em C G
and I'm breaking down, i think I'm breaking down
G/F# Em C G
and I'm afraid to sleep because of what haunts me
G/F# Em C G
such as living with the uncertainty
G/F# Em C
that I'll never find the words to say
G G/F# Em C G G/F#**
which would completely explain, just how I'm breaking down
Chorus
GM Em C
someone come, someone come and save my life
GM Em
maybe I'll sleep when I am dead
C
but now it's like the night is taking sides
GM Em C
and all the worries that occupy the back of my mind
GM Em C
could it be this misery will suffice?
Em - C - G - G/F# - Em - C - G
G/F# Em C G G/F# Em
I've become a simple souvenir of someone's kill and like the sea
C G G/F#
I'm constantly changing from calm to ill
Em C
madness fills my heart and soul
G G/F# Em
as if the great divide could swallow me whole
C G G/F#**
oh how I'm breaking down
Play Chorus
