Torn - Natalie Imbruglia
-----------------------------
*Single Version*
[Transcribed by TNT SHWE]
Notes:
Play the rhythm acoustically and the lead section (reminiscent
of the lead sections from James' "She's A Star") in the Coda electrically.
I could tell you what the settings are, but since all amps differ, it
would be a better idea to go and tra in yourself to find these settings
yourself! The chords in brackets are the transition chords and are played
for a much shorter period than the chords out of brackets. Transition
chords are used to "musically fuse" two chords together!
Recommended Chord Positions:
Am xO221O
Bb x13331
C x32O1O
Dm xxO231
F 133211
Gm 355333
Intro:
F Bb F Gm
Verse 1:
F Am
I thought I saw a man brought to life
Bb
He was warm, he came around like he was dignified
He showed me what it was to cry
F Am
Well you couldn't be that man I adored
You don't seem to know
Bb
Don't seem to care what your heart is for
But I don't know him anymore
Pre Chorus 1:
Dm
There's nothing where he used to lie
C
My conversation has run dry
Am
That's what's going on
C
Nothing's fine
F
I'm torn
Chorus 1:
(F) C Dm
I'm all out of faith, this is how I feel
Bb F
I'm cold and I am shamed, lying naked on the floor
C Dm
Illusion never changed, into something real
Bb F
I'm wide awake and I can see, the perfect sky is torn
C Dm (C) Bb
You're a little late, I'm already torn
Verse 2:
F Am
So I guess the fortune teller's right
Bb
I should have seen just what was there and not some holy light
But you crawl beneath my veins and now
Pre Chorus 2:
(Same chords and rhythm as Pre Chorus 1)
I don't care, I have no luck
I don't miss it all that much
There's just so many things
That I can't touch
I'm torn
Chorus 2:
(Same as Chorus 1)
Bridge:
Dm (C) Bb Dm F C
Torn... Ooooh... Hoo ooooh... Ooooh
Pre Chorus 3:
(Same chords and rhythm as Pre Choruses 1 and 2)
There's nothing where he used to lie
My inspiration has run dry
That's what's going on
Nothing's right
I'm torn
Chorus 3:
(F) C Dm
I'm all out of faith, this is how I feel
Bb F
I'm cold and I am shamed, lying naked on the floor
C Dm
Illusion never changed, into something real
Bb F
I'm wide awake and I can see, the perfect sky is torn
C Dm
I'm all out of faith, this is how I feel
Bb F
I'm cold and I am shamed, bound and broken on the floor
C Dm (C) Bb
You're a little late, I'm already torn
Outro:
Dm C
Torn... [much wailing]
Ooh...
Outro/Solo:
(Same rhythm as Choruses) [To Fade]

This a Fantastic Song. I have listenend to this track repeatedly and I
feel that this is pretty close, I have limited knowledge of Chords, so
the Build-Up is no doubt using Chords, If so, please contact me and tell
me what they are.

good job man, but I'd like to say that this way sounds better:
EADGBE
Am: 577555
Bb7:688766 (I know, thats called Bb)
C: 335553
Dm: 557765
Good luck
Awesome! Good job, dude!
One more thing - at the intro, instead of playing Gm, play Bb. The rest of it - excellent!
