Snow Patrol - Signal Fire
Tabbed by Alan.
Thanks to GlynisCorgan for help on the chorus.
I personally prefer:
A E F#m7add11 Dsus2
e 0 0 0 0
B 2 0 0 3
G 2 1 2 2
D 2 2 4 0
A 0 2 4 x
E x 0 x x
But I've written it out for people who prefer the full chord.
The electric guitar plays:
A5 F#5 E D2
E +-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-+
B +---------------------------------+
G +---------------------------------+
D +-7-7-7-7-4-4-4-4-2-2-2-2-0-0-0-0-+
A +---------------------------------+
E +---------------------------------+ Repeat for verse
Intro: A E D A
Verse 1
A E F#m D
The perfect words never crossed my mind
A E D
'cause there was nothing in there but you
A E F#m D
I felt every ounce of me screaming out
A E D
But the sound was trapped deep in me
A E F#m D
All I wanted just sped right past me
A E F#m D
While I was rooted fast to the earth
A E F#m D
I could be stuck here for a thousand years
A E D
Without your arms to drag me out
Chorus
A E F#m D [Slide to xxx45x]
There you are standing right in front of me
A E F#m D [Slide to xxx45x]
There you are standing right in front of me
A E F#m D [Slide to xxx45x]
All this fear falls away to leave me naked
A E F#m D (Ring out on A [xxx2xx]
Hold me close cause I need you to guide me to safety
A E F#m D
No, I won't wait forever
Verse 2
A E F#m D
In the confusion and the aftermath
A E D
You are my signal fire
A E F#m D
The only resolution and the only joy
A E D
Is the faint spark of forgiveness in your eyes
Chorus
A E F#m D [Slide to xxx45x]
There you are standing right in front of me
A E F#m D [Slide to xxx45x]
There you are standing right in front of me
A E F#m D [Slide to xxx45x]
All this fear falls away to leave me naked
A E F#m D
Hold me close cause I need you to guide me to safety
A E F#m D
No, I won't wait forever
good tab. can u tell me the strumming pattern for the acoustic version?
Well, since there's no acoustic version of the song, I use primaily down strums and power chords for the verses. You can mix it up in the chorus, granted, it's still your own take on it.
hi, great tab, for the D i prefer playing is like normal B on the fifth fret. Thanks again
